How I found out...
It was a warm sunny day in December and I felt exhausted and had been experiening morning sickness. I knew that this was a sign that I better take a pregnacy test. I went to the store and bought a Clear blue test. The lines were not as clear as they usually are, so I bought another test and took it a few days later. Sure enough the lines popped right up.
Now to tell the husband...
Caleb has a shirt that says "little brother" so I put duck tape over little and wrote BIG. Now the shirt says "BIG brother". Adam usually comes home for lunch, so about the time i knew he would be coming home I put cinnamon "buns" in the oven. To top it off, I wrapped the tests up in a box and put the box under our freshly decorated Christmas tree. Adam came home, read Caleb's shirt and said "oh no, really?!". Then I said "If you dont belive me open your gift, oh and by the way grab the buns out of the oven! "
Now to tell Alexis & Caleb...
We usually play on the floor with the kids everyday. Well Alexis went to jump on me and I said "Allie be careful" she asked "why mommy?" and we told her, mommy has another baby in her belly and her reaction with an annoyed sounding voice "oh great, another baby!". Caleb still doesnt know or understand but I beleive he will be jealous. I was holding a friend's little girl and Caleb came up to her, hit her, and cried till I picked him up!
Now to tell the family...
We waited to tell the family until we had an ultrasound done to confirm pregnacy. We usually see family on Christmas so we thought it would be a good idea to share the news then. Well we stayed home this year so we skyped with them and shared the news.
Now to tell the world...
We decided to wait to announce it to the world until I was in my second trimester. I tought it would be a cute idea to get pictures done and send it as a New Years card.
Ready or NOT here comes baby #3!!
