Reality really has set in :)

I went for my first prenatal appointment last week. Sure I knew I was pregnant; I saw that little plus sign on the pregnancy test. I've been feeling some of the signs; very tired, boobs hurt like hell, peeing a lot, very moody. Reality didn't sink in until I saw the little "blob" on the ultrasound screen (not trying to be rude, that is what the baby looks like at 10 weeks) and it's little heart a fluttering away. The heartbeat is at 150 bpm. Just seeing the little one inside of my belly got me really more excited and also kinda scared. I'm going to be the mother of 2 children. Not just one energetic but lovable 3 1/2 year old (that's how old Logan will be when baby #2 gets here) but a newborn too.
 
 
 
How do I keep them both happy?
 
 
 
I know that I will be fine and Ryan will be fine as well and our instincts will kick in. It's just crazy to think that we are going to have two kids!! We are super excited too. :) We don't know for sure, but we think that this one might be another boy. I took an early gender test (this was a free study up at ARUP) and they said that I had Y chromosome in my blood. Sure that could be left over from Logan (if you have had a previous male birth, you will still have the Y chromosome hang out in your system for years) so we'll see what the ultrasound brings (well you all know what happened last time!!). I would love to have a little girl, but another boy would be awesome as well. :)
