What is Small, Unexpected and Causing Lots of Phone Calls?

Brett and I found out we are having a baby!

According to our calculations (...ahem) I'll be having this baby near the end of June. Sebastian was originally due on June 29th. We've started to wonder what it is about this time of year that is causing these similarities :) We're thrilled and although Sebastian would just as well have a bath as have a baby brother/sister, I'm thankful he'll be old enough to help Mama pick up the pacifier and teach the baby how to high five.

I'm not sure how private/public I'll be with the details as we progress. My pregnancy with Sebastian was about as easy as they get. I was nauseous most days and had very little energy but the stories I hear from some women about morning sickness all day make my experience seem like a cake walk. I didn't exactly love being pregnant the first time. It felt like an out of body experience from day one. We went through a major and minor move that included a complete change of environment and routine, which probably contributed to the unfamiliarity of it all. This time, I'll mostly know what to expect, how to make the best of things, and have the nearby support of great friends to get me through the tough days. The hardest part of this one might be finding a midwife in Missouri!

We're all gushy inside these days.
