I AM WHAT???!!!!!!

Some of you may have noticed a certain nausia theme in the recent Blogs. And, if you think back, faithful followers will recall that we recently traded in the minivan. Ask anyone who knows me well, and I AM DONE HAVING CHILDREN. This thought occured to me recently, as I lay on the couch, absently gazing at Joe, and thinking smugly that we no longer have to change diapers. My last kid is getting ready for school this fall. I am going into my second year of Nursing school, and OH! The possibilities! We finally have children old enough, that we feel okay about our planned trip to the Pocano's next month. Without them. All inclusive. Alcohol, (Oh, to be on the recieving end!) Dining, a room with a hot tub, massages. In fact, the resort includes all but kids! Hurray! The end of this month, we have already rented an RV, for our trip with the kids to the semi-local 6 Flags theme park. A well deserved vacation for the family. Isn't this nice? I thought about all this, while vaguely noting an incredible taste for peas. NEEDED peas. It was all I thought about for almost a week, before I finally dug some out of the freezer and cooked them up for dinner. Oh! Wonderful peas! WHAT?! OH. NOW?
Yep. The test was about as positive as it gets. Right away. According to every website I have tried, I figure we're due around the end of January. The Lord works in mysterious ways. So, June 23, I am off to the doctor, to have an official due date, and checkup, and all the fun stuff a prenatal visit entails. Jasin said we should wait to tell people, till after the doctor visit, but, he said nothing about my Blog!!!
This explains the absolute worst sickness I have ever had in my life, and the fact that , even though it's only 6 or so weeks into it; I can't fit into most of my jeans, but have no weight gain. I guess my stomach just gave up the fight early this time. Jasin cheerfully suggested the possibility of twins. He lost the good cheer and suggestion with one quelling glance.
It's not that I'm not excited, it's just that, it would have been a little easier, had this happened 6 months or so down the line! Nursing school is hard enough with a family, job and 10,000 things that go with it all! Throw a baby and a c-section into the middle of a school year, and I just didn't know what to think!
All this is churning through my head, as I am at work on auto pilot all weekend, and dealing with Kaila's 3 day Birthday celebration, and the thoughts that we have NOTHING for a baby! I gave it all away! So, we have to start from scratch. I was so overwhelmed, that when one of my regulars came in, and asked how I was, I immedietely burst into tears and sobbed it all out, finishing with, "And it wont even be born before I can deduct it!!!" Darn hormones. LOL!
Anyhow, you heard the news here, first. We haven't even told the kids yet. I will post more as I learn it!

  1. WOW!!! Congratulations, Moriah!! I know it may take a while to get adjusted to your new reality, but you'll get there! And as for baby stuff, I can ship out either boy or girl clothes, depending on what fits the bill! Too bad you're not closer, our I would have a lot of baby equipment to lend, too :)

    Good luck with morning sickness... hope it goes away soon!

    Love, Sara
