12 Weeks- Baby #2

We are SO excited to announce that we are expecting Baby #2! We are ecstatic and can't wait for December! Christmas is coming early this year!!

Brooklyn is going to be the best big sister! She loves her baby dolls and treats them like they're her own babies! She also will pull up my shirt and kiss my belly. We can't wait to see Brooklyn with our new baby!

At our first doctors appointment we thought I was 7 weeks 5 days along, but according to the ultrasound I was only 6 weeks.. I still haven't come to terms with being 2 weeks behind what we thought we were. I'm not believing it quite yet! Ha. I really do feel like I'm further along, so hopefully this baby comes a couple weeks earlier than the doctors due date! At each appointment the baby was measuring closer and closer to my original due date. So I'm not entirely sure how many weeks to tell people I am or when our due date is ha! Anywhere between 12/8 and 12/20! Which is a huge difference while pregnant!

With Brooklyn I never got sick until the 2nd trimester. This baby is being the same way. Last week Brooklyn and Curtis came down with the flu and a few days later I was throwing up too. So I'm not sure if it was the flu or the baby sickness finally coming.

One thing is for sure. I have been DANG tired! Seriously, I didn't know a person could be so tired! I take a nap almost every day when Brooklyn does and it still isn't enough sleep. I also have been getting pretty bad headaches this time around, too.

No matter the sickness or tiredness I am just so excited to be blessed with another baby. I don't think we're very good at planning kids because Brooklyn came a lot earlier than we thought and this baby took a lot longer than we had hoped and planned! But we are just grateful to have another babe join our family!

We asked Brooklyn one day what the babies name is and she said "Gocco". And every time after that she says the same thing! So funny and we have no idea what she is saying! One day we were watching Princess Sofia with her and she kept saying it over and over! We finally realized she was saying Crackle, the name of the little dragon on the show! Don't ask me why she chose that name but we think it's adorable and have decided that when we get a dog we will name her Crackle! Haha.

Brooklyn loves giving the baby kisses and telling everyone about her little secret. She will sit there and just say baby over and over until we tell them what she's talking about! It is so cute!

Only thing I've craved so far is Dr. Pepper! If you know me, I am so not a pop drinker.. But man. When I finally got my hands on an ice cold Dr. Pepper it was heaven!! I've also been eating a lot of plain stuff like popcorn, toast and ramen because it's the only thing I can usually get down.

Honestly, we just couldn't be more excited and are so glad to finally be sharing the news with everyone! Check back here and I will be doing updates throughout my pregnancy!
