The 'secret' is out...

We have finally started to tell people that we are expecting again. I'm not exactly sure why we left it so long this time. I think maybe it was because Luke is still little, and I know that I personally was a bit worried about what people would think.

But, after some thought, I came to the realisation that we do not have to defend our decision to enlarge our family. Children are such a blessing (well, the one that we have is...and I'm sure the others will be, too!) We are extremely excited to be welcoming another son or daughter to our family.

The baby is due on the 25th of February. By this time, Luke will be around 14 months old. I'm sure it will be a challenge to have two tiny ones in the home, but I am ready for it. Or at least, I hope to be ready for it in just under 6 months :-) I have already started to imagine Luke and his sibling playing side by side, and what it will be like in church when they both start to cry at the same time. Oh what fun!

Hey you used to deal with the Leicester YSA on a regular basis. After that having two under two will be no problem :-)

Your right though, that you don’t have to defend your decision. It’s your decision and it doesn’t matter what anybody else thinks.

I don’t doubt for a second that you will be ready for the challenge

Welcome to blogging Sian, I got into blogging earlier this year inspired by Jessica and Kimberley's blogs. It is a lot of fun and as you said a great way to keep in touch with family and friends. Congratulations on your pregnancy; Luke is just adorable. We look forward to seeing you at Christmas.

my mum showed me your blog. Congradulations on your second pregnancy; thats great news. I wish I was as brave and willing as you when it comes to enlargining the family. You are most likely more patient than I. Your little boy is beautiful.
