Baby Ballou #2

Back by popular demand....Baby Ballou #2 Blog!

Right now we are 14 weeks pregnant. We are waiting anxiously to find out the sex!
I want to know so I can paint Adeline's new room! If it's another girl..pink pink and more pink and princesses etc... if it's a boy...maybe yellow or green?
They might share a room. We are not sure yet. The baby will be in my room for probably close to a year! I was crazy with Adeline...so I wouldn't think this one would be any different! I just feel more comfortable hearing the baby. And I will not heat up bottles again..makes it easy if you can train them to have room temp. bottles! That was my best trick as a mom yet!

Please Please Please pray that we do not have another Colic baby! Well....I guess I don't care as long as the baby is healty but it would be so much easier if this one didn't cry for 5 hours straight everyday for months!!! That was super hard!

I think we have decided to stick with the daycare. Every decision has it's good and bad. I think Adeline would be really bored at home the more I think about it. She looks forward to seeing her friends. I am really sad that in June she will be leavin her friends at St. Pauls and moving to Croc O Gators in Glens Falls.

The things that I like at Croc O Gators is that it is really cool...and brand new!
There are not a lot of kids yet. So Adeline and her baby brother or sister will be together most of the day! I really like that! I am going to start Adeline there 2 days a week when I am on Maternity leave. I don't want her to be too bored so 2 days will be good. Her daddy is going to bring her in and pick her up.

Right now I feel a little guilty and sad about having another baby only because I feel bad that Adeline's world will be turned upside down. I think the happy part is the obvious a beautiful baby and a sibling for Adeline. I have a good relationship with my brother so I hope they will have the same. It's hard thinking that I could possibly love another baby as much as I LOVE Adeline. But I know I will!!! I already love this baby :) I love the idea of our cute little family of 4!

Well....I'm feeling good. No morning sickness once again! YAY! I have a little baby bump starting to form. I can't wait until I pop because I just look a little chubby! I have already started taking a lot of baths! My favorite thing to do....besides being with the fam!

I have been going to the gym 2-3 times per week to keep my energy up. That is hard for me because it takes away time from Adeline but it's good for me and the new baby....gotta stay healthy!!!!

Oh yea before I sign off....Adeline thinks it's a baby sister. Her daddy thinks it's a boy. I have no idea! The only reason I would think it was a girl was because I am having the same exact pregnancy as Adeline. Can't wait...boy or girl...
who really cares right?

Happy reading and Happy Days ahead!
Love, The Ballou's
