I just can't help myself

So our vacation was lovely, although we were very happy to get home. Two weeks is long. Cole did surprisingly well with all the car travel. It was great to see family and spend time with them since it's been so long. Some had never even met my hubby!

The most interesting thing that happened was discovering that I am once again pregnant. I know what you're thinking..."Holy crap! Can she not control herself?? Or maybe it's her husband - he can't keep his hands off of her!". Well, neither one is true. Our little "oops" happened during a moment of spontaneity that are so rare these days. Who wants to go all the way upstairs to grab a condom when the moment is NOW??? Man, now I realize how all these teenagers get pregnant. Although, our moment was a little more secure being that we're married. Anyway, it happened. Not our plan, but God's. I'm due March 6th and though I'm not too far along yet, I already look pregnant. It's true you start to show a lot sooner with your second and I guess since Cole's only 9 1/2 months old, my body just went right back to pregnant shape as soon as it got the news.

It does explain why none of my shorts were fitting quite right. I couldn't figure it out. How could I be getting fat when I'm eating less and getting more exercise? I guess although the news was a huge shock, it was better to know that at least I wasn't phantom eating during the night.
That's all for now - I'll post pics soon.....
