I guess I've been having a lot on my mind, and didn't really feel like blogging about anything else until I was ready to share. Guess who's pregnant?! Three guesses, and the first two AREN'T Melinda.... cuz we're already too late for that. Refresh your memory here.
I was basically minding my own business when someone on the T-tapp forum mentioned they just found out they were pregnant. I started thinking, "Man, I'm behind schedule, here...." A couple minutes later, I took a test and... Voila! Baby #3 on the way.
Maybe some of you have experience with pregnancy tests (and I do. I took, like, six with Logan. Ha!). Those of you who do will know what I'm talking about. The test says you are supposed to wait usually a few minutes to read the results. In the meantime, the lines (or whatever) are working on showing up. You know you're pregnant when the "Mazel tov, you're pregnant" line shows up immediately, and also before the "yup, the test is working" line shows up. Yipes. And that, certainly, is a scary site to behold when you're not ready for another chitlin.
I'm not saying I'm not happy deep down somewhere, but I think it's quite safe to say that I'm TERRIFIED out of my gourd to have another child (i.e., labor and delivery, a.k.a. KNOCKMEOUT!!! NOW!!!), and also TERRIFIED I will have a repeat (or worse) of the dive into depression that I've been struggling with since having Hunterbooey. Nothing I can do about either of those things right now, but I'm trying very hard to keep up the T-tapp, because that should help with my fitness, as well as my hormone balance.
Billy and Logan are thrilled. Logan (along with most everybody I know) is hoping for a girl this go-round, but I am pleading with God to please send another boy. Please, God, I am not prepared to deal with ruffled underwear and baby tights! If it is a girl (despite MY prayers), it is rumored she will be the only girl with a pink Barbie dirtbike. Ain't it the truth?! Hahaha. Maybe, just maybe THIS one will take a liking for horses.
I'd like to say Hunter is happy about this, too, but he has no clue. All he knows is that I sleep too much right now. I can guarantee that he is not going to be thrilled with sharing his mom and dad. And who can blame him?! =)

On the T-tapp front, did both instructionals 1 & 2 today, just because last week was a wash (with the exception of two days I was able to do a full workout).
....and then there were 5.
