Almost 17 weeks...

It is hard to believe that I am already in my second trimester and starting my 17th week of pregnancy. Pregnancy #2 has been much different than #1 because I am so busy. No longer do I spend my days and evenings day-dreaming of paint colors and bedding. Instead, it seems my days are full of work, dinner, evening routine, etc until I pass out in bed at night. I wouldn't change a thing even if I could, but I do need to make an effort to slow down and document this pregnancy when I can.

We are just as excited and anxious for the arrival of a healthy baby this spring. We wonder often what baby #2 will look like, will it be a boy or girl, what will Lucy think, when will the baby arrive. When we were in Siesta Key last week, Denny and I went out to dinner one night, and spent the entire evening discussing our new baby. Names was the main topic of conversation. We are not set on any names yet but we came up with some we both really liked. It is fun to imagine another beautiful newborn arriving this spring.

Baby #2, Mommy and Daddy love you so much. We cannot wait to meet you. I felt you for the first time 2 weeks ago and it was the best feeling of my life. The smallest flitter and movement from you brings a smile to my face. We pray for your health each and every day and talk about you constantly.

 I love you,
Mommy
