Why I've been behind on postings......

I'm PREGNANT!!!!
I've not been posting as much the last few months because I've been sick in one way or another. I was sick for 2 and a half weeks in April and then I've had really bad morning/night sickness. I'd feel lousy all day and then I'd get really sick from 5:00p.m. on through the night and it would make it really hard to sleep. I've been really tired and the 12 hour shifts have become very LONG!! The morning sickness is getting better (so I'm trying to tackle all the things around the house that haven't been done for the last 3 months).
We are very excited after trying for 9 months. I'm 13 weeks today. My due date is January 5th. We told Andrew maybe for Christmastime so he would understand how long it would be.
Andrew is very excited!!!!! His best friend Ethan has a baby sister and he is very enamored with 'baby Eliana.' Andrew insists, and insists, and INSISTS that it's a baby sister. And, he's already picked out the name he wants to name her....Annabelle. A combination of Annie and Clarabel from Thomas the Tank Engine. I asked him what he would name a baby brother and he said, "no, it's a sister, it's Annabelle."
He gives the baby a kiss every night and says, "night, night baby, I love you." Then he gives it a raspberry and I give him one back. Very cute! He asks lots of questions about the baby.

My morning sickness was a ton worse with Ally than it was with Jared. Hope things settle down a bit for you.
Congrats!

Owen's middle name is Thomas, we let the boys pick it. They were huge fans!

Jana,

Congratz! Looks like we are preggos at the same time! I may be due sometime in March though..I will find out next Thursday the exact date. Sorry to hear you are having the bouts with morning sickness too...that part really sucks. So neat though that you are adding another little one to the family! See you at MOPS this year as pregnant ladies!
