A not-so wordless Wednesday...

Well, if the video worked for you, then you were able to find out that Matt and I are expecting our second baby!! I am just shy of three months along and due in the beginning of May. We are so thrilled and can not wait to meet the newest (and most likely final) addition to our family. We had our first doctor appointment on Monday, with an ultrasound, and everything looks great - the baby is growing as he/she should and the heartbeat sounds good.

We are working on turning Acadia's playroom upstairs into her new "big girl" room, and the new baby will go into Acadia's old room. It's hard to see our baby growing up so quickly - it's very bittersweet.

Top two questions:

1. Will you be finding out the sex? No, we will not be finding out the sex of the baby. We loved the surprise aspect we had with Acadia and definitely want to repeat it!
2. How have you been feeling? Actually, not so well. I have had morning (ha! more like all day) sickness, which had recently subsided - thank god! I have been also very tired, which is to be expected. Besides that, everything has been fine. I have been thanking Matt weekly for picking up random items at the store - lemonade, sour patch kids and jolly ranchers, as the sourness has really helped with the morning sickness.

We are very excited to share our ride with you all with this blog - it's a shame I wasn't blogging when I had Acadia, because I find that this is a form of therapy for me :) Luckily, I kept a diary with Acadia, so I kept track of all our appointments, thoughts and fears that way.

Thank you for all your sweet e-mails and phone calls - we love you!!
