Our family has a little addition on the way! How's that for news?!
It's funny...God's sense of humor. Logan and I had recently talked and decided we would be perfectly content if we didn't have anymore kids. If God wanted us to have more, that would be great too! But, we both agreed that it would be nice to be able to put everything into Emma, give her as many opportunities as there are available, and pour all of our love and attention into her. I guess God wanted to let us know He has other plans for us!
We are so excited and cannot wait for our little one to arrive! I would greatly appreciate your prayers, as this pregnancy will definitely not be as easy as my first. Chasing a toddler around the house, and all that comes with that, is going to get harder as my belly gets bigger! So, thank you in advance!
Fellow-Mama's out there, please comment and share your gems on simultaneously balancing a toddler, keeping house, and all that comes with pregnancy! I would love to hear your stories! From family grocery-shopping escapades to the gag-worthy diaper explosions! I'll take 'em all!

Its a learn as you go kinda thing. Just remember there's a difference between a dirty house and a cluttered house. Don't sweat the small stuff and enjoy the alone time you have with Emma. Soon enough she'll have to share her time with you with a sibbling. The dishes, sweeping and laundry will still be there tomorrow. I always thought to be a good mom I had to have a perfect house. Now I realize I'd been a much better mom if I'd sat down and read one more story with them in my lap. As far as outtings with 2...they have a dad, let him have one or both while you go...lol congradulations!
Thank you, Teresa! I definitely have to remember my OCD tendencies are not the most important thing and having a perfectly clean house all the time is not what makes me a better mom! Thank you for reminding me! =)
