Surprise

     When Baby J was three and a half months old we had the shock of a life time.
      I was pregnant. Again. The pregnancy test was positive before I even put it down. I was extremely upset. I never thought I would be so sad to see a positive pregnancy test and for a a second I thought about aborting it. I mean how could we do that to our sweet little boy. Have another baby. He was still a very young baby.
     J was amazing. He let me cry on him. I can;t remember exactly what he said but it made me feel better and made me think about the big picture. We are happily married, have a sweet baby boy and these two would always have a friend to play with.
     So off to the doctor I went to make sure I could even carry a baby so soon after having had a c-section. He sent me for an ultra sound where everything looked nicely healed. And I got an early peak at our new baby.

     Everything was perfect.
     When I went in for my first official check up we found that the due date was one week before Baby J's first birthday. "Looks like your going to have Irish Twins" my doctor told me. Ugh! That meant that if I went past my due date they could the same birthday.
     The best news came at the twenty week ultra sound. Everything was healthy. And we found out we were having a Girl! One of each! That certainly softened the blow of being pregnant. I was truly excited now,
