1) Tired
2) Scared to death (what have we gotten ourselves into? Eeek!)
3) Excited
I'm 13 weeks along right now and feeling rather good, considering. I was completely exhausted and nauseous with Grace till about week 20, so the fact that I'm starting to feel a bit better by week 13 is very promising. Plus, I just don't think I could deal with fatigue and nausea for another 8 weeks. It's just too hard with a little one running around the house all day. No more pampering my pregnant self!
We decided that we aren't going to find out the sex of this baby. Some people are already telling me that the suspense will kill me. They may be right, but I just don't feel the need to find out right now and don't even feel any suspense. Of course, that will grow as we get closer and closer to September. I think that waiting till d-day to find out what we are having will be amazing. Plus, I'm a person who usually never gets surprises. Not for lack of effort on others behalf, I'm just a really, really good guesser. Ask my parents. I've guessed just about every Birthday and Christmas gift since childhood.
In other news, Grace is growing like a week and talking like crazy. This girl seriously learns or masters a new word every day. I'm kind of sad about the mastery part. I really like her 'baby names' for things, like 'YaYa' for Oreo the cat. Now, she says O-eo.
Grace has become particularly more loving lately and loves to cuddle with her stuffed animals and is evern starting to say 'I love you'. Does it really count when I tell her to say it to me? I like to think it does!
Here are a few recent shots.
These 2 are compliments of my friend Erin. I was able to benefit from her nice camera and homework for her photography class. Grace and Wes were really jamming. Grace on the drums, Wes on vocals. Nothing hotter than a guy in a band! :-)

i'm so excited you aren't finding out this time! it's so much fun to find out on their birthday! glad you are feeling better - pregnancy is hard enough...busy toddler running around makes it even harder!
I'm glad you're feeling better! So so so so excited for you. How cool that you are waiting until d-day to find out what you're having. I don't know if I could do that, so I really admire anyone who can. Are you mentioning the names you are thinking, if you have any right now?
I'll be down there in October for the reunion and I'm planning on meeting your little ones!
No name ideas yet. I'm kind of surprised because I started looking up names the minute I found out I was pregnant with Grace. We decided that I'm picking out the girl name and Aaron's picking out the boy name. That's about as far as we've gotten.
haha love the band pics. grace looked pretty stunning playing the drums, wes says :)
Glad you are blogging again and i'm glad i made the blog :) Can't wait to visit again!
How exciting, congratulations to you guys!!
