It's a cat.

Wednesday was a big day for us. We received excellent news about the health of our sweet little G2. He (or She) is thriving and received a clean bill of health. Wednesday was also the first day that we heard the heartbeat. It doesn't matter how many children you have or how many times during the pregnancy you get the opportunity, IT NEVER GETS OLD!

Addison is constantly asking for more G2. This means "mom go to the computer and play the sonogram video". She also kisses my belly on a daily basis and proceeds to say "goodbye G2!" then pulls my shirt back down. Clearly she is ready to be a big sister. Yesterday I asked, "Would you like a little sister or a little brother?" She promptly responded, "Cat...MEOW!" She might be disappointed to know that we won't be having a cat.

Sunday marks the beginning of our second trimester. Everyone tells me that each pregnancy is as different as the child that is birthed. This I believe. Something else that I now know is that muscle memory is a very real thing. It took me months to develop a baby bump with Addison. With G2 I was showing at 8 weeks. There are certainly differences but one thing remains the same. The love!
