TWO PINK LINES

On March 13Th Dan and I found out we were expecting! We wanted to keep it a secret for a bit longer but at 9 weeks I am already showing and having people ask me the "iffy" question of: Are you pregnant? I always want to say that I have just gained a few pounds and embarrass them but I can never bring myself to do it.

Since I am already showing I have convinced myself that I am having twins, and seeing as that is how my husband rolls.... HA HA! I know I am just crazy and pregnant but it would be nice to get the last two at one time. Then we don't have to make the decision later on if we want just one more.

We are so excited! Ever since Dan and I decided to have more children we have always referred to our future children as "Zebras" due to our drastic difference in skin color. He is nice and dark and I am... albino! Thus I have a fear my baby will come out with stripes since the DNA just could not make up its mind.

I am due on November 20Th (which is our son Britton's Birthday). And my first appointment with the Doctor will be on the 30Th of this month. This pregnancy has been worlds different already than my other two which I am SO grateful for (those of you who were around me during my other pregnancies know what I am talking about).

Dan will be deployed when I give birth so that will be hard, but I already have so much support from so many people that I truly feel blessed.

We'll keep you posted!

Congratulations!!!!!! I bet this kid will have the perfect skin tone. Just the right amount from both of you. Can't wait to hear if you're right about the twins.

It feels like we have been talking about Zebra babies forever!!! And now here we are. I think about all of you every single day and can't wait for you tell me that you have 2 zebras and not just one. I mean, with 2 you would need lots of help at home and with Dan gone I may have to find myself a new address :-) I keep talking about moving...maybe I'm just waiting for the right time and the right reason. I LOVE YOU..ALL OF YOU!
