I was completely shocked to be pregnant. We had planned on getting pregnant in Octoberish but God had different plans for our family. Being in a two bedroom place, learning our way around PA, trying to branch out and make new friends and being pregnant. That was all a little too overwhelming for me.
Thankfully I've come to terms with it!
I didn't get to tell Austin in any cute kind of way, in fact it went more like this:
Austin and my Dad had been planning a trip to go to The Masters (early April), I was listening into a phone conversation (after just taking a pregnancy test some point during that afternoon). They were talking about booking plane tickets. I knew there was a chance that the baby would be due around that time, if my calculations were right, so I politely asked Austin to tell my Dad we would call him right back. After he was off the phone, I told him, "So, there might be one small thing stopping you from going on this trip...." and then out with the news! I was scared, emotional, overwhelmed, unsure, happy, excited...you name it, I felt it. Austin, just like last time, was thrilled and excited. (he's always so much more rational than I am!).
So, no cute "Big Brother Shirt" (although that's how I told my parents and Austin's parents) and no cute presents for Daddy this time around, just a "opps, you might not be going on a golfing trip after all". Of course, I've encouraged him to go, being that it's in the beginning of April and I'm not due until the middle, but seeing that Isaac was 16 days early, he wants to stay close just to be sure!!
That's our story, I better get that written down in a journal or something! (again, poor Baby #2, already neglected, in the journaling world!)
