Yes, We're Alive!

And we're expecting another baby by June next year.

I wanted to write a long, cute blog post about this latest addition to our family, but my brain is not working. And I'm still trying to figure out how to type and work around being queasy, dizzy and generally blah all day.

Which doesn't mean that we aren't excited about the new baby (we hope that it's a boy this time). We are.

Sometimes I feel a little guilty (mother guilt even at 8 weeks!) that we aren't acting as giddy as when Raine was in my tummy. And sometimes I wonder if I can ever treat them the same or will Raine have the advantage of being first?

Perhaps it's the hormones talking. Or the morning sickness that has no concept of time.

I just need to jumpstart my writing again. Then I can share how happy we really are.

Hi Ree,

Congratulations :)

Raine will always have the advantage of being first but this new baby will have the advantage of being the youngest - that is, until the 3rd one comes along.

On the flip side, Raine will always have the disadvantage of being the first, she had to train you to be parents - inexperienced hands changing her diapers, parents not able to interpret the meaning of her cries, etc.

So fair lang, don't you think? :D
