Being the second girl, Grace gets stuck with hand-me-downs. But this is one shirt of Claire's that I was quite happy to dig out to be worn again!
I am 11 weeks pregnant, due in June. I had my second prenatal visit yesterday and everything is going well. I do have low hemoglobin, which only adds weakness, dizziness and fatigue to all the other wonderful pregnancy symptoms I've been experiencing....morning sickness, vomiting, nausea and exhaustion. Yes, it's been a rough few weeks. I'm just hoping I'm over the worst of it all. I'm ready to start feeling better. Of course, I was expecting all this since I was so sick with the first two pregnancies. When I'm throwing up in the morning, I wonder why in the world I thought this would be a good idea to put myself through this a third time! But you get far enough removed from it, you sort of forget how horrible it is. It really is miserable. But I'm putting it in writing this time...I will never go through this again! 3 kids will be the right number for us.
The question everyone asks...are you hoping for a boy? We wanted three kids right from the start, regardless of gender. Of course part of me would love to experience the difference in raising a boy and I think it would be great for Nate to have a son, but truly, honestly, how could I not want another sweet little girl?! It's really a win-win either way!

So exciting! I hope Grace is excited to experience a baby too! We know what you mean...we are perfectly content with our two sweet boys, but will always wonder what it's like to have something different in a girl. I hope your pregnancy is better than the others...being less than 100% sucks.
you're right, you really can't lose--boy or girl! It's very exciting! Will you guys find out the sex again this time?
I hope you start feeling better soon. I cannot fathom going through that with a 4 and 2 year old--and a traveling husband!
We are so excited for you Nikki and your family! I cannot imagine being as sick as you have been for all of your pregnancies. You are a trooper, that is for sure.
Good luck, I hope you start feeling better soon!
Being sick and taking care of two little girls (and Nate :) ) at the same time is a lot of work! Hang in there, hopefully you feel like yourself soon and can enjoy the rest of the ride!
