Last night we told Rich's family about the pregnancy, after telling my family on Saturday night. Today, we went to the doctor to confirm that everything is great. Rich and I are thrilled that we are finally getting the last addition that we have been praying for.
When this baby is born, Ben will almost be 5 and starting Kindergarten, Briana will still be 3, and Liam will be about 22 months. They are all so happy for their new little brother or sister.
We really and truly don't have a preference about whether we are expecting a boy or a girl. We will find out the gender however, because we need to know if we will need to add a third boy to Ben and Liam's room or if Briana will be getting a roommate.
Our house is so much smaller now with all of the stuff that comes along with having a 4, 3, and 1 year old. There isn't a room in the house that is untouched. They have even taken over the garage, so we can't park in it!
Other than suffering from some space issues due to the additional Christmas supplies around the house, I have been feeling fine. Almost no morning sickness, which is a completely different story from my first two pregnancies, which makes me think that it is another boy, since I was almost hospitalized with Briana. With Ben I really didn't know what to expect, and the entire time that I was pregnant with him was kind of a really long blur. I also had more time to lounge around towards the end, as I didn't have any other little ones to care for.
My energy level has been kind of low, which isn't good this time of the year when there is so much to do. I will try to check back soon, whenever I find the time and energy too.
