The time has come...

Woo hoo! I tried to think of a clever way to announce this, but I'm fresh out of clever ways to announce that I am expecting baby number two. I am completely and utterly ecstatic, thrilled, elated, keyed up, eager, animated, energized, wound up-- well those are all of the synonyms offered in Microsoft Word when you look up "excited." And that is what I am! This has taken a bit longer than expected with a few minor bumps along the way so I appreciate the blessing all the more! I am 16 weeks along and still puking my guts out every day... well, that is, when I forget to take my Zofran (anti-nausea pill from HEAVEN). I love my Zofran and will probably be naming my child after it. How do you all like the name "Zofran?" Maybe "Zofi" for short? I think anyone who has spent 5 or more months of their life feeling like they have a horrible case of food poisoning would understand the name completely. Well I'll be letting y'all know when I find out if it's a boy or girl!

Congrats, of course, and kudos to the most original name I've heard in a while. Perhaps you could really make it trendy with a tricky spelling like "ZoPhranne" or if it's a he, "Xofran" Any mom who is sick like you are should get a guarantee that the teen years will go smoothly or that the babe will come out potty trained......I firmly feel that I would rather break my leg than puke for 5 months. Your dues are paid for a while I'd say.

Congrats!! We are so excited for you. Does Maren understand at all? I hope that your sickness goes away soon. Do you feel like you are already showing? I remember feeling like I started showing much earlier than with Amelia. Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy.
