A Big Fat Positive!

On December 1st of 2010, Alex and I found out that we were expecting another cute little Clark. It's funny because over the Thanksgiving holiday many of my family members were asking when the next one was coming and we answered, "We're working on it". Little did we know that I was 4 weeks pregnant at the time. Perhaps I shouldn't have had that glass of wine with turkey dinner!

Yes, yes we know... the kids will be awfully close in age. Fourteen months to be exact-baby #2's due date is July 31st. When we went in for our first doctor's appointment the OB/GYN nurse said to me as I stepped on the scale, "Was this a surprise?" I'm pretty sure I gave her the stink eye and stated loudly that "No, we were trying". Luckily, my doctor was much more enthusiastic about us being there (I never liked that nurse very much anyway-she's just not the warm and fuzzy type) and greeted us with a big congratulations. He confirmed that Graham was indeed going to be a big brother!

So far everything has gone very smoothly. Similar to my pregnancy with Graham, I am one of the lucky ones that did not have any morning sickness. I was, however, much more tired the first few weeks. Although, that doesn't really come as a surprise. I think I'm getting the hang of being pregnant and caring for the little munchkin too. I definitely have more energy now but perhaps that's because my husband is home.

Below you will see the start of the bump documentation. I've been feeling much more hungry with this pregnancy, as you can tell by the already expanding waistline. Luckily, we received a treadmill for Christmas. So maybe I will actually work out... maybe.
