No... I'm not preparing for the end of the world or some sort of disaster. No... nothing like that.
Hello... my name is Jacki and I am preparing for another baby. Yes... another baby. Now don't get all excited just yet. I am not preggo. Not yet.
As most of you know, I don't carry a baby in my tummy very well. You see, these said babies like to come out early. Too early. Which requires me to do months & months of bedrest.
I had a dr.'s appt a couple of weeks ago to discuss 'family planning'. Most women would take their spouse... you know... like... their husband's. I took my mom. LOL! Yep, I took my mom. Tim was out of town and I had already had this appt scheduled forever, so I wasn't about to reschedule! I chose my mom because, A) she was probably the most concerned about us having another child and B) I needed another set of ears so I wouldn't have selective hearing incase the news was not good. Well, turns out the news was good... not just good but GrEaT! In the past 2 years since I've had Kole, they've come up with a new progesterone shot that I will be getting once per week while in the 2nd trimester. This shot along with a cerclage will most likely ward off any preterm labor that I might have. My dr. felt very confident that this will work for us with little to no bedrest. And I trust him.
Soooo... Tim & I are doing everything & anything that we can to prepare for this upcoming baby/pregnancy. We setup a new 'baby saving account' and by June we will have about 4+ months worth of income setup... just incase. And you know that 'mormon closet' I showed you up there? Well, I took on a new toddler in my daycare. She is here about 2 hours each day, 4 days per week and I am taking the extra income from her and stocking my mormon closet! My plan is to have at least 4 months worth of non perishable goods stacked on these shelves by the time I have a baby.
Do you think I might be nesting already??? Noooo....
Anyways, pray hard for us... think positive... wish... send good vibes... do a little dance... do whatever it is you do! We want a healthy pregnancy & baby! :o)

OHMYGOD JACKI BLOGGED!!!!!!!!!!!!
ahem.
Can I just say WWWOOOWW with the planning ahead?! Seriously impressive. It sounds like you're being very level-headed about the whole thing.
And since you and Tim do quite possibly make the cutest babies ever, I can't wait for you to have another one!!
Well, here's some very important advice from your mother.
Start stealing diapers and wipes from the daycare kids. That way you'll have a big ol' stockpile of those too!
Mom! ehem... I have daycare parents whom read this blog. Now hush before I 'donky chest' ya!
I thought you said that wasn't contageous...
Gee, Mom, that was really rotten advice.! Besides, its a little late to turn your child to a life of crime.
Oh, yeah, Jacki, the medical news is fabulous ! that is exciting !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Baaaaahaaaa your mom is hilarious!! I will keep that in mind when chloe comes to visit :) I heart your mormon closet friend! Now quit blogging and start making that baby!
