one, two, three, FOUR!.... I declare a thumb war.

Last night we posted this picture on FaceBook to announce to family and friends that the fourth member of our family is on their way. The sign above says:

                                 Eviction Notice

Please note that you are expected to vacate the premises by September 8^th 2014, as a new Anderson baby is expected to move in by this time.

Sincerely,

Mom and Dad

We thought this would be a fitting way to announce since we are resident managers. Don't worry, we wont actually kick her out of the crib when the baby comes. And the only reason she is crying is because we wouldn't let her eat the paper.
So another baby... Im freaking out a little bit. I am super thrilled, and terrified. These 2 little tots will be roughly 20 months apart. I can't wait to snuggle my new little baby. I just don't know how I will adjust to managing with 2 little ones around. 

I have been feeling terrible. Personally, I believe the first trimester is just slow torture. I really don't think there is much worse than feeling nauseous all the time. I haven't been throwing up as much as I did with E, so thats a blessing. Another blessing is that E has starting taking longer naps, so I have been able to rest almost everyday. Which is awesome because I feel SO tired by the time nap time rolls around. On top of being nauseous, we have had almost every virus here in our house. Pink eye, head colds, stomach flu, sore throats, you name it. I thought I was going to die the weekend I had the stomach flu. I even told Jordan that I thought labour would be more enjoyable. Don't know if it's actually true, but that's how terrible I was feeling.
I feel huge already. I don't remember popping out so early last time. I already look like I gained 10 pounds, and Im not even at 12 weeks yet! I've heard people say that they got bigger faster with their second, so I guess its just part of the process. Im just hoping I don't get too big. 

So anyways. That the big news in our family right now. And also the reason I have been antisocial, lazy, sloppy looking, and just plain unreliable. Sorry about that. One more month and I'll be back, I hope! In a few months there will be a squishy cute baby around, so its all worth it. :)
