Ready or not...

Baby #3 coming this July!
It took us a while to get pregnant with our last 2 kids, so when I had my IUD taken out last fall we decided not to prevent anything. And with this baby I got pregnant pretty quickly. The boys are over 3 years apart, which was great. This time around Jack will be just over 2. So I hope I can handle a new baby with my wild Jackie.
I've been really sick with this pregnancy. I keep thinking that maybe I was this sick with my boys and that the Lord just made me forget, but maybe it's a girl this time that's making me sicker.
I wanted boys in the past, but now I think I'm ready for a girl, especially when my boys are running around fighting and tackling me. And at 14 weeks the doctor is pretty sure it's a girl! I won't paint the room pink yet, but I'm getting excited. I would be fine with all boys, but I'm close with my mom and sisters and would love to have that with a daughter. And this might be my last chance because I don't know that I can handle more than 3 kids.
So wish me luck!

CONGRATS! your so great to wait so long to tell. And so fun for a girl! I'm sorry you've been so sick, I swear i get more sick with each pregnancy probably just that you have more kids to take care of and can't take care of yourself. Good luck, you can do it, 3 isn't that bad! If I can do it you can! Everybody always tells me if you can handle 3 you can handle more.

YAY! That's so fun! I hope it's a girl for you too! I would have been fine with all girls, I can handle drama over wrestling/fighting/jumping/running any day.

Ummm ... if I can "handle" 4, you can definitely handle more. More Thompsons are needed to run the streets here in S. Weber.

Congrats ...

I am SO excited for you! I can't believe your doctor could tell already. I am dying to find out. I hope you have a girl too that would be perfect if you decided not to have anymore. Sorry you are not feeling well though, hope that gets better soon.
