Big News!

Here in the household of the CrAzY Working Mom, we have major changes on the horizon. We found out last month that we will be welcoming a new addition to our family in mid-August. Shelby is excited to be a big sister again and Tyler is ecstatic to be no longer be just a little brother. Now he will have a chance to be a BIG brother. Brien and I are still in a bit of a state of shock because we were not planning on a third child. That being said, we are very happy to know that we will get to go through the whole process again. I will visit my OBGYN for the first time on Wednesday, February 13. We're excited to get to hear that heartbeat and hopeful that we will just hear one. Yes, twins run in Brien's family, his grandfather was a twin as well as mine. I have a twin brother and sister. I will update as things change but for now that's the major news around here. We waited to tell the kids, but many family members have leaked the news to others and there are people that know that might have accidentally slipped up and said something to the kids, so we decided we might as well tell them. I do have a bit of a "baby bump" already and I'm only 13 weeks. I'm having severe back pain (as I did with Tyler) already. Otherwise, things are well. Just keep us in your thoughts and prayers that we experience an easy pregnancy that ends with a beautifully healthy child. At this point, we have no preference on the sex since we have one of each, however it might become a priority to search nearby real estate for a larger home!

Many congratulations to you and Brien and also Shelby and Tyler! Wow - I never thought about the possibility of twins but it sounds like the odds are highly in your favor. Gulp!

Take it easy with that back ache and rest, relax, and let yourself be pampered for a bit if possible!
