Seems like forever

In 2002 I became pregnant with my son who is now 4. He was born on Valentine's Day 2003. Before that I became pregnant with my daughter in 2000. She is now 6.

My husband started school just before our son was born. We had decided to wait till my husband finished school to have another baby. Just before the completion of his 3 year at the University of Phoenix we decided to try to get pregnant. That was in 2005. After a year and a half of trying I am finally pregnant! I am due December 29, 2007.

The time of year is a bit complicated and I am kind of hoping for either a few weeks early or a few days late. My sister(4), my brother(19), 3 cousins(5, 9, 23), my brother-in-law(7) and my daughter(27) are all born in the month of December. Not to mention Christmas. It's a busy month for us. But I will be happy whenever this baby comes. We have waited a long time for this baby.

I have decided that when I have pains or morning sickness that I will be grateful and take it as a reminder that I am blessed to be having another child. I am so happy and excited! It doesn't seem quite real. I haven't really been feeling pregnant. I have been tired, and have some lower back pain. I have not been sick yet.
