…to fess up and tell you MY BIG SECRET!
Wait…or maybe I’ll let P tell you.
You know, since he’s so excited about it and all.
Did you catch that?
No, you don’t need to re-read.
It’s true.
P is going to be a BIG BROTHER!
And, really, don’t be fooled by the picture. He was just mad when I asked him if he was ok with having a baby brother. You see, he wants a “sisstuur”. I swear I didn’t teach him to say it either.
ahem.
Or maybe I did.
Baby Rose #2 will arrive in January! Please continue to keep us in your prayers. Even though we are almost 9 WEEKS…and we’ve seen the heartbeat…we would still appreciate the extra positive vibes. Nothing is for sure.
And I hope you do understand why I waited so long to tell you all. Remember here…when I had to break the bad news. Yea, I didn’t want that to happen again.
But, here’s another little secret….I’ve been feeling AWFUL! When I say AWFUL, I mean TERRIBLE…LIKE I’M DYING TERRIBLE! I am trying to just be grateful that I have a healthy lil baby growing in my belly, but come on…the sickness is overbearing.
I’m warning you now…I might complain…A LOT…in the next few weeks. But all for a good cause.
*big sigh* I feel sooo much better now that I have come clean with you all about my secret. Life can return to normal. Minus the nauseousness, dry heaving, headaches, and sleepiness. ahem. grateful. ahem.

Hooray! I assumed that was the reason you had been so sick lately. I am sure all the sickness will be worth it in the end! Congrats. I guess your little guy or gal will be a year behind Mason in school.
