SOOooo, if you couldn't guess from yesterday's Christmas card post... here's a more direct announcement:
**This is the photo I took and sent to my hubby with the message "Looks like Robin tonight!" in the text portion. We had a deal that if it came out positive, we'd go out to dinner at Red Robin that night. And yes, I did in fact take the test in the Safeway bathroom and then proceed to the wine aisle for this picture!**
No more wine for me for a few months! :) We are expecting baby number two in June! Yay!
We kept this wonderful little secret under-wraps until recently, when we sent out our Christmas cards (which doubled as announcements). We decided that we wanted to be "in the clear" and safely into our second trimester before spilling the beans. Now I get to chronicle this adventure... hopefully... if I can keep up. So here's my first official "bumpdate"!
**Pardon the half naked photos. I started "recording" the growing belly during my trips to the gym, so these are all either before or after my workout.**

SLEEP? All I want to do is sleep! I am soooo tired, a l l t h e t i m e! But as far as sleep itself is concerned, I have no complaints thus far.
DOCTOR. We've had two doctor's appointments so far, and one scheduled for the day after Christmas. We are looking forward to January 25th when we get to see if Baby B #2 is another little boy or
Our due date is still the same: June 10, 2013. However, if history repeats itself, this little one may come earlier than that. It is sure to be a crazy time! So far, we have my grandma's birthday on June 7th; my little brother's high school graduation on June 14th; Del's UW graduation on June 15th; then father's day and my sister-in-law's birthday on June 16th! It is sure to be
