I've got a feeling....

"that tonight's gonna be a good night, that tonight's gonna be a good night" <---- These are song lyrics BTW. It's a new song by the Black Eyed Peas that Joe loves and has been singing/playing in our home. Jack also likes to sing/dance to it. I am now finding the darn thing stuck in my head and thought it might be a fitting blog title.

We have been having a busy few weeks. I am teaching not 1, not 2 but 17 swimming classes (SERIOUSLY?!?!? I KNOW) I know that is a little nuts, however I feel like lately it's par for the course in my life. I have things that need paying off and want it done sooner then later. With all the craziness, as if we weren't a little out of our minds already, I have been feeling sick too. Nauseated to be specific. Seemingly ALL the time. After I eat, before I do. Not only is there nausea but there are the naps. I have been napping like a fiend. At first I was thinking H1N1. Then I realized based on some very scientific calculations (or a calendar that I keep in my ipod) that I might have been having some "fun" with my sweet hubby around a time of the month that would up my chances for an addition to our family. My first reaction to this realization (if I'm being honest) was complete panic. Mostly because I have had c-sections with my kids and felt like I needed more time to heal up. Second reaction was more or less nerves because of how close they would all be.

I proceeded to test, and test, and I might have even taken a 3rd test a few days before I was due to my monthly friend. Joe and I went over and over scenarios in our heads about more kids this fast and the fun/craziness it would bring. Then the due date arrived and low and behold, there was my friend. Right on time, as if to say to me "you doubted my arrival.... well let me cramp and rage you and make you know that I am , in fact, full blown here" I can completely admit that for all my concern about a 3rd child so soon and my body stuffs; there was a part of me that was a little be disappointed in the fact that I wasn't. Then there was sigh of relief that we weren't.

Just one of those things that once you stop and think about it.... it makes you realize that although we didn't feel ready and we would have been a little thrown by the surprise, we would be excited all the same. In the meantime though, we are planning to wait. I laugh as I type the word planning... we make plans and God laughs (I think that is how the saying goes)
