So I decided that it's time to make the official announcement. A little while ago, I casually posted in the "About Me" section that we are very excited to welcome the 4th member of our family on April 7. I am nearly 11 weeks pregnant now and counting. I am not feeling as sick as I did with Mason...but my life is a lot different now, too. I realized that most of my nausea occurred on my drive home from work. I had a 45 minute commute, and rush hour traffic was just not good for my already carsick-prone stomach. This time around, I've still felt the familiar food aversions, if it's food other than Chick-fil-A, I have an aversion towards it, but it has been a lot more bearable. I do think that I am more tired this time around, though. Maybe being at work all day helped me to not notice it as much last time, though...and then when I got home, there was nothing I really HAD to do, so I got to sit and relax for the rest of the evening.
I had my first appointment at 8 weeks...and here are some of the ultrasound pictures:
It was wonderful to see the tiny heart beating away!
Isn't our baby cute? I think that he/she looks a lot like Mason did at that age. :)
Mason will be 22 months when the new one is born. This is almost the exact same distance apart that Diana and I and then Diana and Cindy were apart, too! We don't have any strong feelings whether Mason is going to have a brother or a sister...we would be thrilled with either. I'll put up a poll as our 20th week gets closer and see what you all think.
So that's our exciting news, we just know that Mason is going to be the best big brother and we are happy to welcome another precious one of these into our family:
(This is Mason the day that he was born)

I am so excited for you and your family! I'm glad you're feeling better too. Oh, that is just wonderful news. Best Wishes!

oh yay! I am so happy for you and your soon to be new addition. I hope you get a lot of Chick Fil-A since thats the only thing you can stomach right now. For me, I had to have Ramen. And nothing garlic-y. Anyway, congrats! Can't wait to find out what it is!
Congrats again! I am SO excited for you guys. It's so much fun having 2. Watching them interact with each other is the best!
Yeah for you!!! Welcome to the 2-club!. :) Emily is right, it is getting so much fun for us (most of the time) to have the boys being able to play together and communicate. They do pretty well and it is pretty crazy to add another one to the mix! :)
Congratulations! I'm rooting for a boy!
That was so funny when you said that the new baby looks a lot like Mason did when he was his age! haha A boy or a girl, either one we know will be beautiful.
Alright Queer. I'm sooooo happy for your little family, which will not be so little for long. I really need to meet up with you sometime. I really do think Mason and Beckham will have a blast!
Congrats once again! I'm excited for you guys!
YAY! Time goes by so fast, doesn't it?? Seems like you were just sending those pics of Mason the other day, and now he's all over the place and about to be a big brother. So excited for you!!
Holy Crapper!!! We are so excited for you!!! I love the ultrasound pics!!! My Rylee and our new baby will be 22 months apart as well!!! I think it's perfect timing!!!! We go for our formal ultrasound in next monday the 24th. I'm so excited to see what the gender will be!!! Congratulations to the three of you!!!
We really do need to live closer since our all our bebes are about the same age!!
Congratulations! That is so exciting. I also wanted to tell you personally (in case you haven't heard through the grapevine) that we will be having our third girl in December! I always wonder how I would entertain Hannah if she didn't have Aimee to play with. It's fun with two!
Congrats!! Can't wait to see updates. I hope you find out if its a girl this time!
