Barefoot and Pregnant

So, knowing I'm pregnant again is taking some getting used to. I really thought we were finished. Of course, I was using no type of contraceptive or anything. I just had the feeling we were done. So color me surprised when the little test told me the opposite. 3 Kids!!! I don't think I'm ready. I do like the age gaps though. They will all grow up together and leave home one after the other.

Danae is excited but says she only wants a sister. She doesn't need any more brothers. I've been trying to explain that I have no say in the matter. But like most kids, she thinks her parents can do anything including decide the baby's gender. I told her to pray about it.

I don't mind having another kid but I don't really feel like being pregnant again or going through another delivery. However, I feel really blessed to be able to experience parenthood again, especially since 6 years ago I was told I was infertile. I'm just not ready to look like this.

Congratulations!!!! How far along are you? Be careful what you say you may end up getting Danae a pet? I really wanted a brother and told my parents as much. I kept telling them even after they tried to pass me the hint that I was having a sister. I kept telling them no. So when I saw my little sister, looked at her told my parents I asked for a boy and that they needed to take her back. I was quite distressed to find out it didn't work that way so alas they ended up getting me a cat as a consolation prize. The good news is I love my sister and wouldn't trade her for a brother.
Anyway babies will keep me employed and yours will be teenagers by the time I'm done which is what I want.
