#2 is on the way!

So, many people already know we are expecting baby #2. For those of you who don't, here you go. We were not planning on this one quite so soon but I guess things happen. We are due in April so we still have a while to go. I am just having fun being sick and trying to keep up with a very busy 14 month old. It will be interesting to see how Emerson does with another baby around. He already likes to have his mom all to himself. Anytime Mike will come over to hug me Emerson will run from across the room and try and push him away. It is funny to me that he won't even let Mike come near me. He cries and cries when I hold another baby and not him. The other interesting thing is that Mike will be in his first year of dental school. His work load has already been crazy and I can't imagine what it will be like when we have another baby and he only has 1 month left of his first year. I think we just like to make life as exciting as possible. Hopefully everything will go okay and at least I won't have to be pregnant during our Phoenix summers!

Way to be optimistic - that would be horrible being pregnant during a Phoenix summer! I was laughing SO hard at the story of Emerson running over to push Mike for hugging you. That cracks me up. I'm SO sad that I wasn't able to see you guys while you were here :-( I hope you guys are doing well and stop feeling sick soon.

XOXO

Hey Val, How are you doing! It was so good to see you! I hope everything is going well in Arizona. I am seriously excited for you and Mike about baby #2. I hope you are feeling all right. And now that your expecting your mom has more reasons to come and visit you which is always good. I hope you are adjusting well to the move and we will have to get together when you come up for Christmas or something!!

Wow! Congratulations! That's exciting. It's nice to "see" you guys in the blogging world. Emerson is such a cutie. I'm sure he will be a wonderful big brother!

That is hilarious, I can totally see Emers doing that! Hopefully we will soon. As for your wondering if it will be a long time until we have kids, hopefully it won't be that long. If I'm not pregnant by the time I'm done with school then we're definitely going to start trying harder. :)
