Way behind!!! Expecting a new arrival!!

Goodness I am way behind with this blog, things are fixing to change in a few short weeks we are going to welcome another baby girl into the family!!  We are very excited, but as time draws near I am very anxious as well!  The feelings that I had when I was pregnant with Carlie are all coming back to me again.  I am so worried that I am going to show lack of attention to Aiden and Carlie and I pray that is not the case, I am going to try by hardest to give them all my equal attention if that is possible!  I know it will be possible it will be just getting a routine established that will be the hard part.  I love Aiden and Carlie more than I could ever describe and I know that will be the case with the new addition, nothing like the love you have for your child!  For some reason this pregnancy I have been more emotional than with the other due, I will just blame it on the hormones! As time draws near I can't wait to see Miss Priss and hold her and put a face with that little girl that has been moving all around in my tummy!  I can't wait to see who she favors, whether it be big brother or big sister or a good mixture of the two!  I think Aiden and Carlie will be wonderful with her, I feel like Carlie will want to be a little Mommy and maybe want to help a little to much, but we shall see, she may surprise me.  I can't wait to see Aiden and Carlie bond with there new sister, I loved watching Aiden and Carlie bond and they love each other so much even though they may not show it all the time, so I know watching them with our new little one will melt my heart!  It's funny with this pregnancy I waited a while until I "announced" we were pregnant, it wasn't that I meant to, there just didn't seem like a good time to say anything because so much was going on around the time we found out.  Found out in October 2012 and my Niece was planning her wedding and getting married and I didn't want to take away from any of that and then we got all that over and done with and my Uncle Dan got really sick, I had also been helping take care of him which I am glad I got to help him out in his last days, but he has been in the hospital for a few weeks and he later passed away and boy do we miss him!  So that wasn't a good time and I hate like everything I didn't tell Uncle Dan I was expecting another baby, he loves kids and I know he would have loved this one as well, but he knows, he probably knew before I did that we would be having a new little one!  He loved Aiden and Carlie and Carlie especially misses him a lot and talks about him all the time! So then Uncle Dan passed away right before Thanksgiving and then we still hadn't told anyone and come Thanksgiving we couldn't think of a better time to tell the news, we were very thankful so it was the perfect time.  We where at Josh's parents house having Thanksgiving dinner and we started off by going around the table to tell what we were thankful for, as it got to Josh he said he was thankful for Aiden, Carlie, Mommy and the baby in Mommy's tummy!!  I wish I would have been videoing it was priceless, the kids didn't get it at first so we told them again later, but Josh's Mom and Dad were kind of in shock, his Dad's face was priceless!  They were excited but very surprised and I guess more surprised that we had waiting until I was 15 weeks along to tell the news :)  That was a Thursday and the next day Aiden decided he wanted to spread the news to my Mom and Dad and he did a good job, they were both very surprised to, my Mom still can't get over the fact that I "hid" it so well and I was already 15 weeks along!  We are all very excited the closer it gets, but like I said I have many emotions about everything, I hope it's an easy adjustment, but I think I am asking a little much, but it will all be worth it and I can't wait to hold her in my arms and for the kids to see her for the first time, it will be another moment in my life that just melts my heart and a feeling you just can't explain until someone has been in your shoes.  I go back to the Dr on April 29th and I hope we know a little more about maybe when Miss Priss will be here, she has been breech for a little while, at my last appt Dr Niner still seemed to think she was breech, but said she still had time to turn, that is another reason I am anxious the thoughts of a c-section and the unknown, I prefer to go vaginal so I pray she gets turned.  Dr Niner wants to do another scan at 38 weeks so hopefully that will give us more insight as to whether we have to schedule my first c-section, lets pray she has turned!  Anyways I thought I would update since this is really new news in the blog world since I haven't posted anything about it.  In a few short weeks we will no longer be a family of 4, we will be a family of 5 :)
