As usual, I am so far behind on updating my blog that it is just ridiculous! As it turns out, we have some exciting news! We are expecting baby #2!
This time around I was definitely more sick and generally "pukey" feeling during the first trimester. And because Henry was early, I have all kinds of warning signs for having another preterm baby, so the pregnancy hasn't been perfect. However, I am feeling fantastic (except for an aching back and my tendency to catch every single cold and bug around). And baby seems to be doing well!
According to Henry, he also has a baby in his tummy and has been stuck on this notion for quite some time now. We thought for sure he would forget about it, but now we are hitting that point where we've had to start delivering the hard truth that boys can't have babies. I feel bad crushing his dreams like that, and especially because it's so darn cute to hear his progress reports. At one point, his baby was the size of a donut! (with pink frosting) :)
Because of all my "high risk" issues, we've had several ultrasounds and decided that it would be fun to know this time around if we were good to go with baby products, or if I could start buying pink! As it turns out, it seems Hahn and I have broken the "Ainsworth Y chromosome curse!" because it's been confirmed at THREE separate ultrasounds, we are having a girl! I always hoped I would be lucky enough to get one of each and it seems my dream has come true. I just know this little girl is going to love and get along with her brother just like I did with Grant!
