It was a sunny Saturday.  I was out running errands, and thought "Hey, I might as well buy this test."  So, I took it home, went in the bathroom and took it.  I didn't look.  I just exited the bathroom and told juC that he was going to be the first one to see the test this time around.  I said it wasn't fair that I was always the first to know. But perhaps there was a large part of me that was scared to know the results.

About 10 minutes later he went in, and came back out and said "Yep."

I have always said that kids less than 2 years apart are too close together for my comfort.  But the truth is, I'd been fighting the feeling that it was time to have another one for months!  I fought it and fought it until I just couldn't deny it anymore.  But the truth also is that I am absolutely freaking out!

I'm doing my best not to focus on the freaking out aspect of my feelings (the reality), and trying to focus on the sweetness of a newborn baby.  There is nothing better than a newborn baby.  And I'm looking forward to having one around November 7.

Kitty Thursday

According to izC, these two windows are the best seats in the house.

We have screened porch. A couple of times I've let izC out there while the kids played. I let her out this time on her own. Every time I opened the door to see if she was ready to come in, she'd look at me in a way that said "Not a chance." and then would look away.

Blog hop!

I can't believe I forgot to post that I was featured on a blog this week. I was able to share luC's birth story and have been part of a "Mommy panel". To read luC's birth story, click here.

Kitty Thursday

When we first got izC, she followed us around everywhere, and after the kids would go to bed, she'd come lay right beside me on the couch while I watched TV. If I tried to get her to lay on me, she would have none of it. But now if I wait until she's good and asleep beside me, I can get her to snuggle up with me.

It's the simple things in life...

Kitty Thursday

I would like to dedicate today's Kitty Thursday to my mum. Today is her birthday! Whoop-whoop!

Contrary to how sweet jC looks in this picture, these two have a love-hate relationship. jC LOVES to torture and be mean to izC, and izC HATES it. You can see in izC's eyes that she knows jC is going to turn on her at any second and she has to be prepared.
