The Squidling Part Two- I'm Pregnant! (Again)

I can't even believe I'm typing this.


Maybe I should have known when I had a craving for pot roast so strong that I wanted to KILL people when I didn't get it. Like, straight up homicide.


I took the test yesterday. I was eight days late but hadn't taken one yet, because, well....THEY ALWAYS SAY NO! Haha. The directions said that it'd take 60 seconds to 3 minutes for the results, but just like the first time I was pregnant that positive line showed up within seconds. BAM.


Suddenly, I was the only one on earth who knew I was pregnant. It felt kind of cool, but to be honest I couldn't get out of that bathroom fast enough. I actually tripped over my own feet while I was fumbling with my pants, which is classic Amy behavior I assure you. I tried my hardest to hold a straight face as I brought the test over to Edmund, but I crumbled about halfway and just got the biggest, STUPIDEST grin on my face. The grin pretty much told him, I saw the change in his eyes. After we briefly freaked out and got all teary eyed (ESPECIALLY watching Lily cheer with us and realizing that she was going to be a big sister...) and then Eddie called his mom.


I walked over in a daze to my computer and saw that Kody was online. I couldn't resist freaking out Intrawebz style with her while I tried to call my mom. Then it was a flurry of telling close friends and family members via email and phone.


We spent the afternoon having random outbursts, like, "Lily do you want a sandwich? AND OH YEAH GUESS WHAT THERE IS A BABY IN MAMA'S BELLY!" or, "Eddie, what did you want to do for dinner? Oh, and also, REMEMBER WHEN THAT ONE TEST SAID I WAS KNOCKED UP!?"


Aaah. Here it all goes again. I can't believe my little Lily is going to be a big sister. According to the Chinese Gender Predicting Chart, it's going to be a girl haha. I'd adore a boy of course, but I'd also love another girl before we had one. I WONDER!!


And of course, we have both names picked out because we're OCD like that- Jude for a boy, Nora for a girl.


EEEEEEEEEEP! I'm likely due at the beginning of June!

OH! SO wonderful!!! Congratulations, Amy, and please take very good care of yourself. Everyone makes a fuss over both baby and mama the first go-round, but it's just as important with Squidling The Second. In fact, you should probably go take a nap this very moment. Thrilled, thrilled, thrilled for you all!
