Well, God did it again :) What an awesome bday present!

pregnancy
Yep, Jason and I are going to be parents again :) We've been trying for a few months now, but the house remodeling had priority, so I thought since I was shooting for an 11/11/11 due date, I better get serious :) So I used the fertility friend website- where you take your temperature each morning and track your symptons, period cycles, intercourse, etc... and well within two months we got it right. February's ovulation date kept moving around, so i thought we missed it and then was going to have to wait until April since I was going to be on travel in March during that exact time when I could get pregnant.


My 32nd bday is today, but JAB played this past Saturday, so I decided to take a pregnancy test 1) I was 2 days late 2) I knew i was going to be partying so i wanted to verify that I wasn't 3) I had the symptoms of either starting my period or being pregnant- they are very similar so it makes it hard to figure out. so Friday, March 4th was the day I found out! I had been sick with a cold and coughing for two days and stayed home from work. While Jason ran to the grocery store to get things for dinner, that's when I decided to take a test. It was just Kelson and I- so I took the test and the up and down line showed up rather quickly. Once again, I was in shock. I couldn't believe it- could i really be pregnant? So I went out and told Kelson that mommy had a baby in her belly :) Kelson has been asking for a brother or sister the last couple of months!!! :) So when Jason got home I told her to tell him that mommy had a baby in her belly, so she did and he looked at us and said yes baby girl we are working on it- and then I held up the pregnancy test and said well it looks like we do. His jaw dropped and he was like OMG, are you serious? I said yep- but I'm gonna run to the store to get another one. So I did and once again "+"!!! :) Both Jason and I were giddy all night and wanted to wait to tell anyone. So to keep thing on the down low I told Jason to tell everyone that I wasn't feeling good so I wasn't gonna be going out Sat night. If Kelly went to a bar and didn't drink esp on her BDAY everyone would know! So i just opted to stay home. I couldn't sleep AT ALL the first night we found out. I was thinking of ways to tell everyone, thinking of if was going to be a girl or boy, when I should make my first appt, etc...The funny thing is i told Jason if he was a boy I would like to name him Janson Ebenezer :) he said, well Kelly that's a bit much... LOL! But we both really do like Janson Eli (Elias) was Walt Disney's middle name. So, ya never know! I have a feeling we are gonna get that BOY this time :) Kelson goes back and forth- I think she just wants a playmate :)
Since the family was going to FL we celebrated my bday that Sunday- March 6th- so how we told Jason's family was I had Kelson unwrap a "Big Sister" t-shirt, so when she opened it I looked up and said Wow- and showed it to the family- aline was the first to say- OMG- your pregnant :) And I just smiled!!! They all started screaming and laughing and clapping- it was sooo cute. Lucy kissed me at least 100 times! Kelson was singing- were gonna have a baby- were gonna have a baby with Lucy and the family. LOL! It was so cute! Made my birthday so special. We are going to see my mom and dad tomorrow so I'm gonna have Kelson wear her "big sister" t-shirt when we see them... I figured that's a good way to get the news out! This weekend we will tell the rest of the Albert family at Rebecca and Jeff's wedding. Sucks that I can't party with them, but its not like I haven't done it before, and being pregnant again is such a dream come true, so no worries!!! I had planned to lose a lot more weight before getting pregnant again, so that parts sucks. I plan to get more active and eat right so the weight doesn't PILE on with this one. Either way, I'm super happy and feel super blessed! We plan to tell everyone probably next week (not sure how yet)?? maybe with a baby ticker and a picture of Kelson wearing a big sister t-shirt!!! :0) Most of our friends will probably find out. Facebook is a hard way to keep a secret :) BTW- I got SOOOO many facebook birthday wishes, made me feel so important and loved.


Tonight I'm looking forward to having "girl time" with my friends. Only one of them knows I'm pregnant, so when I make the skinny girl margaritas and NOT drink one, they will be asking questions, but I'm excited to tell them why I can't :) I wanted to celebrate a girls night IN... we are gonna cook a mexican spread and drink wine, margaritas, and watch a girly movie ALTOGETHER! I'm really looking forward to it. Kelson and Jason are both in Mexico Beach. We are meeting up in Orlando tomorrow. We get to see my sister and the kids, and mom and dad. I can't wait! Haven't seen them since December. Then Disneyworld on Thursday, then head to Tampa for the wedding that weekend. Full schedule, but I can't wait!!!! Well I gotta leave work now- LOL- so i can stop and get a few things for the trip and the get together tonight. I'm gonna try to start posting more frequently again. Talk to you later!!!
