Wow!
If you would have asked me a year ago where I saw myself today, I don’t think I would say pregnant. Yet, here we are again expecting our 5th little bundle of joy.
I’m excited about it now that I’ve had a few weeks to process it. When I first found out, I was a little confused and disappointed in myself. After all, my last baby just turned one in December and I was just starting to get back into the groove of things.
I had just started a new exercise routine. I was taking care of my hair and my body. I was taking vitamins because I wanted to not because I was growing someone. I was living! Now, I’m expecting.
Don’t get me wrong. Being pregnant is a wonderful surprise. However, when you’ve done it so much until you don’t even know who you are anymore, you kind of crave a moment to yourself. However, thanks to my husband I have been getting somewhat of a break these last few days. This pregnancy has really been kicking my butt early. So he’s been picking up all of my slack with our home and the other kids.
Speaking of my husband, he’s excited for the new addition to the family as well. He’s really hoping that this baby will be the one that loves him most (Ha!) He had the nerve to ask me how did I do it when I revealed the news to him. As if I could get pregnant on my own! 😂😂😂 Now, he’s making plans for the baby and hyping up the kids to welcome their new siblings.
My kids are always happy to add a new baby to the bunch. If it were up to them, we’d probably have about 10 or 12 kids. Good thing it’s not up to them though!
I’m excited for this new chapter in my life and just wondering where it will take me. Did any of you have 5 children in a row? Tell me how it’s been going for you. I want to know everything!
