We’re going to have another baby!
Also, I think our matching mother/daughter dresses are funny. ;)
This pregnancy has been less worrisome than the first, but I have been exhausted (and nauseous). I’m looking forward to getting a little energy back and feeling better as I head into the second trimester.
I’m due February 12 and Eleanor won’t turn two until April 29, so we’ll have two under two for a while. Sounds… challenging! But it also sounds fun.

August 9, 2010 at 9:39 amCongratulations! How exciting! Love the photos too.
Carolyn
August 9, 2010 at 9:40 amWhoa…look at all of your comments already! I’m here to say the same: “Congratulations! You both look darling. And you are looking great!”
Emily
August 9, 2010 at 9:43 amCongrats! My 3rd baby was born on April 23. I’ve enjoyed seeing Eleanor’s monthly baby photos as she changed along with my little guy Griffin. Now we are due with #4 on Feb. 9. Our babies are just days apart. I’ll enjoy seeing all the nursery ideas you have. Since I already have a TON of baby stuff with this one being #4 I won’t be doing a new nursery this time. But I’ll be living vicariously thru you. LOL. Best wishes!

August 9, 2010 at 9:47 amCongratulations! I found your blog after our Eleanor was born this April 22nd, but it’s kind of cool to see your Eleanor growing so fast, since she’s almost exactly a year older than ours. I love your dress in these pictures!

Elaine
August 9, 2010 at 10:47 amCongratulations! My two girls are 20 months apart and the youngest will be celebrating her first birthday this weekend. In the beginning, it is incredibly tiring, crazy, hectic, but it doesn’t last for long. By this time you’re a pro! I was worried that the first year was going to be tough, but turned out that after about six months, when the little one was able to sit up on her own, everything got a lot easier. She loves to watch and listen to everything that her big sis is doing and saying. And the older one is (most of the time) so sweet and gentle with her little sis. Congrats again, and looking forward to hearing if Eleanor is going to have a little brother or sister!
Robyn
August 9, 2010 at 10:48 amcongratulations! you look wonderfully cute & happy :)

My boys are 22 months apart, and yeah, it was tough for a while I guess… now, three years later, I don’t even remember it! You just do what needs to be done. :)
Enjoy the rest of your pregnancy!
Béa
August 9, 2010 at 10:58 amCongratulations!
my sis and I are only 18 months apart, but I love that!
Kathryn S
August 9, 2010 at 11:03 amCongratulations! I hope you are feeling better soon. Our third baby is due March 4, so I’m right there with you! I’m so much more tired and sick this time around as well, but it could be the 4 and 2.5 year old boys running me ragged. The first six months with 2 under 2 are pretty rough, but after the little one starts sleeping a bit better, things get easier, and now my guys are (usually) great friends!
Holly
August 9, 2010 at 11:04 amEEEK, congrats!!!! I adore the matching dresses- you two look so bright and happy! :)

Making it Lovely
August 9, 2010 at 12:30 pmWe don’t know the gender yet, but we are looking forward to finding out. Once we know, we can start planning the new nursery design.

Centsational Girl
August 9, 2010 at 12:15 pmFantastic news !!!! You and Eleanor look simply smashing in yellow ! Both my kidlets are two years apart and I confess the first six months of a newborn and toddler mix are maddening, but you eventually find your groove, and having siblings that close will mean they share an entire childhood of memories.
Congratulations!!
Kate

August 9, 2010 at 12:16 pmwonderful news!!!! all the best to the 3 er, 4 of you!!!
Shawna Wagoner
August 9, 2010 at 12:20 pmCongratulations! I was pregnant the same time as you last time and am pregnant again as well…with my third though. Love your dress – is it maternity? Can you send the source, I think I may need it for the end of summer. It seems just right to at least make me look not tired and ready to run to the bathroom. :)
Making it Lovely
August 9, 2010 at 12:36 pmThe dress is by Down East Basics (I bought it from Fred Flare months ago) – not maternity.
