Baby Makes Four!

Baby P 2.0 will be making his or her big debut sometime at the end of February/beginning of March 2014 (official due date: March 3rd)!  We are completely thrilled to be adding (and almost certainly finishing) our family!
I am just finishing up my first trimester and this pregnancy has been VERY different so far!  While our journey to becoming pregnant was much like the first (pregnant the first month, again.  I told Michael that since we seem to be quite fertile people, we could always create a child army Duggar-style), I have felt no where near the energy, glow, fabulousness I did when I found out I was pregnant with Graham.  First, I was incredibly tired.  Like I HAVE to take a nap in the afternoon in order to even be able to make it to my 7pm bedtime.  Next, I was super queasy.  Starting around noon each day, my stomach just rejected the sight, taste, and smell of the majority of foods.  Finally, I had several freak out moments where I thought I might be losing the baby.  At my 7 week ultrasound, they found a small tear in the placenta, which can either get better or get worse.  I experienced some bleeding and anyone that has had this experience knows that the sight of blood during early pregnancy is absolutely terrifying.  Luckily, at this point in the pregnancy I am feeling much more energized, the queasiness has subsided, and my 11 week ultrasounds revealed that the tear had healed (hence my comfort in beginning to put our good news out there)!
