Ok so this took longer than I expected to write… Lets be honest it takes a bit to write these and between having a huge project at work (just finished) a prego mom who has just the absolute worst nausea (literally 24/7), and a child who I love dearly but soaks up all my attention. Its just hard to sit and write my thoughts. Well, ya’ll are in for a treat! My big project (adding Allow State for Admins) just finished and I just got out of a exhausting meeting so let’s recharge by blogging!
So I’ve given two hints already but let’s just say outright… KATE IS PREGNANT!!! I found out the first day of Passover weekend in Pittsburg. It was the faintest of lines and we found out in another state completely away from our Dr so that part was fun. So got the biggest news in the world, and around all the people I’d want to tell in the world, and can tell none of them… Cause who tells people they are pregnant at 3-4 weeks.
When Kate got pregnant the first time this blog was addressed to you a lot. You being Teddy. Now there are two children so I don’t think “You” can’t work anymore. We may need to revert to names going forward. So we have Teddy and SI (Spanish Inquisition). Can anyone guess why its SI? Probably because after two years of trying with our first and then getting pregnant after two months of half-assing it while simultaneously convinced you are infertile Kate got pregnant again! Things went down in a very wonderful way, but it is still incredibly surprising.
So now there’s going to be two 🙂 How do you handle two. One was challenging… two seems exponentially intimidating. Then again Teddy, you are actually pretty chill kid. I’m watching you play in the back yard right now with Mom on the brand new water table, and you are just bopping away with joy.
Anyway, I feel like with child number two our family will be complete oh and at capacity. This house can only fit so many people. Kate’s dad has been so supportive and constantly coming over to help. Kate mom is also trying to show up and be there for Kate too. I’m sad my Dad passed and will never get to know about SI but I know in his heart he would be so happy. I already have a book that I’m reading through on how to have siblings and not to emotionally scar them. So just as an FYI if I do scar ya’ll probably be the books fault. Then again should I really be reading a book for advice written three years after I was born?
Ugh also forgot this is all happening while I’m trying to right the ship of Kate’s grandma. Taking over financial and logistical management as well as providing both mental, physical, and monetary resources for a person is far to exhausting. I am going to try my damndest to not burden ya’ll with this when I get older.
Anyway in conclusion yyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyy second child!
