Baby News

I'm really bad at updating this blog, but since I actually have something to write about I thought it was the perfect time.

I started this pregnancy thinking what a breeze it would be (comparing it to my first) and quickly found out that I was dead wrong. It almost seems like I have never been pregnant before because everything has been different than my first. Persistent nausea, loss of appetite and a few lbs, horrible insomnia, almost constant back pain, detachment and loneliness and just being plain uncomfortable. I'm happy to say that I am feeling much better and am getting more adjusted to being pregnant.

More happy news; we found out that we will be adding a GIRL to the family! I am excited, yet fearful. I hope I have what it takes to raise a daughter since I've never been very girly or had the typical bonding experiences with my own Mom. I am looking forward to picking out cute clothes (although not in pink of course) and doing my baby's hair (my sisters never let me do theirs) and all the other new and exciting experience a girl will bring. A big part of me thinks that this is a lesson I need to learn in life so I'm going to have faith that things will work out and try to enjoy the ride. :)
