Baby Numero Dos

So we have been trying since February for baby number two, and it seems that all we needed was a round of Clomid and a month of Calvin praying for a baby brother or sister. Saturday, September 26th at 3:30am I took that test that showed our work paid off! Josh was in Montana fishing with his dad and brother so I was going to have to keep the secret until Monday. Calvin and I went to Build-a-Bear to make a bear with Calvin's voice recorded saying "I'm going to be a big brother, yay!" Monday afternoon Josh got home and rummaged through the trash before I got home to see what the test said. Lucky for me those things go blank after 24 hours! When we got home and showed him the bear he was excited and surprised. It is funny how excited all the family and us are this time around. With Calvin it was a huge unplanned surprise. It is nice to not feel so scared and apprehensive with this one. With Calvin I had no symptoms until second trimester when I had terrible heartburn. This time, it seems from the moment of conception I have had nausea, been exhausted, had cramping in my abdomen, etc. Maybe a girl, or maybe just wishful thinking?!?
Calvin and my mom seem to think I am having twins. My mom says I look too big to only be 6 weeks. Calvin has already named them; the boy is Cuckoo Clock and the girl is Treelo.

Early progress

I am preventing myself from getting too excited about things so far. I know the dirt is ours. The pipes and the fences are cool and all. I guess I will get more enthusiastic as things progress. I know for sure that I need to get motiviated to stroke the payments. Cheers to good tax writeoffs and 2009 tax credits!
