Big Brother!

For those of you that don't know yet, Tayson is going to be a big brother!! I am 14 weeks pregnant and the new little bundle is due on April 6th. I have a feeling that "it" will arrive at the end of March sometime because Tayson was 2 weeks early. We are so excited and can't wait to find out what we are having. I say boy but Justin thinks girl! We haven't told Tayson anything about the new baby yet because I think he is too young to understand it right now.

So far, this pregnancy has seemed so much harder than Taysons. I'm not sure if I just forgot being pregnant with Tayson or if it really is. I had some sickness with Tayson but it was primarily in the evenings so I could just go home and lay around and everything was okay. However, with this baby, I have been sick 24 hours a day and because we have Tayson, I can't just go home and lay around. I am starting to feel better and hope that the sickness will be completely gone before too long!! Also, with Tayson, I didn't start showing until I was almost five months pregnant and with this one, well....lets just say, I had Dr. Hix check to make sure that it was just 1 baby!! I have already gained 8 lbs! Oh well, I'll deal with that after the baby gets here! At my second doctors appointment they checked the baby's heartrate and it was 160 so, that is a little bit faster than what Tayson's was!

I go back to the doctor next week so I will keep you guys posted!!

Congratulations! How exciting. I am glad you are feeling better now. I was so lucky and didn't have one single day of feeling bad with Jett. I never even felt pregnant. I keep saying if I decided to have another one, I will probably be sicker than a dog!
I can't wait to hear what you will be having!!
