We have a Secret

and we're just gonna blurt it OUT......We are pregnant with Baby Ernat #2!!!

We are screaming with excitement......lol!

I am only 9 weeks so it is still pretty early, but we told our families and the news seems to be spreading so I wanted to get it on here before everyone knew.  We are very excited!  Baby Ernat is due early July.  We also have our first sonogram on Thursday, so I canNOT wait for that.

We didn't really tell our families in any special way, I just got on the phone one day and called my mom because I HAD to tell her and my dad.  Then it was time to tell the Ernats so Nate got on the phone and told them.  They were all thrilled.  Then, we told the rest of our family on Thanksgiving.  We always go around the table as we hold hands and everyone has to say one thing they are thankful for, so when they got to us we said we were thankful for our family and our baby that's on the way......it was pretty cool!

We were not trying so we were pretty surprised.  I think I will just leave that part at that;)  Anyway, I have been feeling pretty good.  I'm just so tired and feel like I have NO energy.  I put Grey down at 7:30 and then I am right behind him.  I am still getting up early though and working out.  I'm not running like I was doing, so instead I just do the elliptical and only for about 45 minutes.  Then I like to do my lunges.  I also have the annoying "teenage" acne which I have to keep reminding myself that I had the same thing with Grey and that too shall pass.  I have had a couple "icky" feeling mornings, but nothing terrible at all.  I'm eating like a champ, but trying to be healthy.  I bring an apple for lunch everyday and a boiled egg.  It's not that I'm craving eggs yet though I just like to eat them:)  (remember how I craved them with Grey)  The only thing was that at the very beginning when I first found out I was pregnant which already seems like forever ago, so you can only imagine how early I knew......I was soooooooo thirsty.  I don't remember that with Grey.  I could just NOT get enough water.  Even my kindergartners were saying---geez Mrs. Ernat is thirsty.  But, that has subsided too now.  So, all in all it is going pretty good so far.  I have already been to the doctor for all the blood work, weight, and blood pressure check and all was good.  So, let's hope that continues.  I still don't know what I will do as far as a c-section goes.  We have a lot to think about and we need to weigh our options and really know what our situation is.  We absolutely DO NOT CARE if it is a boy or a girl.  If we are blessed with another boy-wonderful and if we are blessed with a girl-wonderful.  Whatever God gives us, we will be happy.  All we are praying for is a healthy, full term baby.  We also DO NOT want to find out what we are having this time.  In fact, Nate never wanted to know with Grey, but I had to know everything with my first one.  However, I want to be surprised this time around!

Once again, we have our sono on Thursday so I will keep you posted.

Here is a video we took of Grey last night.....he had us laughing...sorry it's a little dark
