One is the Lonliest Number

While recognizing this isn't always true, it's kind of true for our kid who loves people. This has been pointed out to us by many kind and caring souls. We've noticed ourselves and certainly think two seems like a good idea. So, baby two will join our family in mid-June. We are very excited and Isaac is starting to get some ideas about the new baby. The other night we had a conversation that went like this:

Me -"Mommy is growing a new baby for our family."
Isaac- "A baby!?!?!?"
Me- "Yes."
Isaac- "A sister?!?!?"
Me- "Well maybe. But it might be another boy just like you. Wouldn't that be nice?"
Isaac- "No Mama. I want it to be another girl just like YOU!"

There you have it. We'll cross our fingers and see how that all turns out.

So while there are a few things about the last pregnancy/birth that make me cringe, there are lots more that make me smile.
