April Fools?

So you may wonder if you’ve been fooled or if Eric’s the fool that forgot “*** lasts a minute… being a father last your whole life.” The latter would be true. In November we started to feel that it was time to add onto our family but after much thought and prayer we decided that we (mostly I) weren’t ready to have another child. We wanted to wait until Kinsley was potty trained and could speak in coherent sentences. In January, after one pregnancy test showed a thin plus sign, I was in disbelief. When the second test said “pregnant” I was in denial. Now that a few months have passed and a doctor showed a baby on the ultrasound, I guess I’m finally realizing it’s true. We tried to hide the prego fact from my parents while they were here but five minutes after they came through the door I was in the bathroom- over the toilet. My mom slyly asked, “So, how long have you had the…... ‘flu’?” Needless to say, our secret was out. This pregnancy has been harder than my first but hopefully that will pass. If not Eric might become a permanent resident of the couch. (just kidding)


Baby number two will make her/his début around September 25th. We are considering the names Olivia Olga Pierce or Oscar Oliver Pierce.
