Oops...We Did It Again!



That's right, we are expecting again.

I am currently 12 weeks and have finally gotten over morning sickness. They say each pregnancy is different and they don't lie. I remember when I found out I was pregnant with Spencer, my skin looked great and I had no morning sickness. This time around? I am tired, cranky, my skin is breaking out and I had to deal with nausea. Add taking care of a toddler to the mix and I pretty much haven't had a moment to enjoy things this time around.

But in a quiet moment (they are VERY rare) I will touch my stomach and remember the excitement of a growing belly and the life that it holds. I have to admit it though...I am very scared. Can I handle two children? Can I love them both enough without feeling like one is being neglected? Will Spencer be able to understand that he now has to share me?

My world is about to be turned upside down...am I ready?

Baby Time Fun - Hubby post 2

So, I really don't have much to talk about, but as I was looking at the calender this morning, I got an idea....Today is 11 weeks. I'm not gonna tell my idea just yet...let me lead you into it.
We men stand around with other guys, friends, co-workers, who-ever and hash out all of the world's problems and how we have theories and solutions to practically everything, if only the idiots running things would get out of the way. Of course the only thing on earth we don't have answers to is women, more specifically our own wives/girlfriends....we just can't comprehend why you all think the way you do, because lets face it, if y'all thought the way we do things would run much smoother...:)
There is a common theory among men that as much as most women want to get married, wedding cake without fail slices their sex drive at least in half. Confirmed. I am no longer the smart, good looking piece of meat she once thought I was. No, I have traded that role for typical husband that virtually never listens or pays attention...and I'm certainly no bedtime desire...you know that TV show king of queens? Yeah....there we go...we are happy, sometimes I guess life just gets in the way.
Now my idea...in a stroke of genius this morning I realized life is about to get out of the way. I mean, I know nothing about this pregnancy, hormones, baby stuff....But I DID read (in an educational article I might add) that low sex drive is common during the first trimester. However in the second, it supposedly picks up for alot of women. Being a MAN, a correctly figured out that by exactly next Friday (12 weeks) my wife will be chasing me around the house like a nympho on crack and I won't have to do anything at all! She'll want it anytime, anywhere, and I don't even have to look good, smell good, or pay attention to a conversation about something like shoes. I figure I got one more week to do normal stuff, you know, work, golf, mow the yard....but by next Friday......bedtime playtime might come anytime....I might want to stay close by..just in case:)
