Getting pregnant with baby #3 was a total leap of faith for us. Our two kids are potty trained, sleeping through the night, mildly bearable in public, can feed and clothe themselves when necessary and are both in school (pre-school and kindergarten) and soon to both be in elementary school by the fall.
As you all know Mark and I have our own businesses - and by most accounts I'm going to say that we have mildly unpredictable lives.
We starting thinking about it in December and by May decided we were ready and we got pregnant that same month.
It's amazing how decision making works - if we had decided to try in December like I originally thought - had we gotten pregnant we would have been due the week that my little sister passed away. The timing of this little one has been amazing both considering the circumstances of our lives and the joy that she has brought to all of our family in a brand new year.
Her original due date: February 8th 2009
How I told Mark: he found a test that I thought was negative in the garbage, and it had turned positive so he made me go take another one. :)
