Questions, comments, and concerns.

Since we have announced our BIG news many people have had all types of questions...
I thought I would take time for a little Q and A.

Q: Were you trying to have another baby? (most frequently asked question)

A: The phrase around our house the past month has been, " We are surprised, but not shocked." ":)
First, I must say that Adam has been trying to convince me to start trying since Dixon was 3 months old! Well, you may remember a ceratin post when I blogged about my liver results and I wrote that I had to get off of a medication. Now, I will leave it up to you to determine the medication I stopped taking.
I have always wanted kids close together...and apparently this is just the right time! Adam and I feel so blessed with another baby. Plus, we are so excited for Dixon to have a sibling close in age, they will have SO much fun together.

Q: What about your diet?

A: Many of you know that I was on the Medifast diet and had MUCH success. However, this diet has been put on hold! I am back to eating normal and loving every carb of it.

Q: Are you going to continue kickboxing?

A: Yes. I started about 1.5 weeks before we found out and the dr. said as long as I felt comfortable I could continue. I am going to re-evaluate after the next 5 week session is over. It feels great to

Q: How are you feeling?

A: Honestly? Crappy. For the first few weeks I was able to do exactly what I always wanted to do when I was pregnant with Dixon. When someone asked how I was feeling, I could smile and say "GREAT!" However, that feeling soon passed. Now I am sick to my stomach all day every day.

Q: How far along are you? When are you due?

A: I am eight weeks! Due December 31st!

Q: When did you find out?

A: I KNEW that I was approximately eight weeks ago. After 6 negative (too soon) pregnancy tests. We finally got a positive one, when I was 3 weeks and 6 days pregnant! It has been extremely hard to keep the news in, I do not know how people do it for the whole 12 weeks!

Q: Do you think it is a boy or a girl?

A: Adam hates when I say that I think it is a boy. He doesn't want me to jinx it! We would be THRILLED with either. I am basing my prediction solely on the Chinese Calendar. Time will tell...but I have already begun researching hair clippies and practiced swooping Dixon's hair to one side. Just in case. :)

Q: Do you have any names picked out?

A: I have about 582 names picked out, but Adam does not agree with any of them...except for a select few. The jury is still out on this one.
