You Know You're Pregnant If . . .

10. You put your kids to bed at 7, and you're climbing into bed at 7:15.
9. You get teary eyed over weird things--like watching "Arthur Christmas."
8. The maternity clothes in your closet that you haven't even put away from the last child are beginning to fit you again.
7. You're craving random foods like Ramen Noodles (with Summer), ribs (with Claire), oranges (with Pyper), and grapefruit now.
6. Your kids walk around the house with dolls stuffed in their shirts so they look like mom.
5. You race out to the car--forgetting your glasses--to get the kids to school on time and can't figure out why everything around you looks so different.
4. You're introducing your youngest to the idea of a new baby--pointing out babies at every chance possible.
3. You get to go on your oldest child's first school bus ride and have to hold back tears because you have so many emotions you can't contain yourself. Excitement . . . happiness . . . gratitude . . .
2. You're back to sipping calcium magnesium before you go to bed to prevent leg cramps in the night.
1. You postpone your family picture--again--so that everyone in the family can be included.

Yes, we are pregnant again. It's been quite a surprise for us, but we are super excited to see who gets to join our family next. We are about 22 weeks along--and still don't know what the gender is. We'll find out as soon as we have the ultrasound. And we'll have a BIG post about it on here. So stay tuned . . .
