Time to spill the beans...

I'm pregnant with baby #2! Due May 2015

That's what I've been up to the last 3 months.  It's such a blessing and our family is so excited to expand our family! 

8 week ultrasound

With that being said, I have to be honest and share that the last 3 months have been quite the challenge.  As with my pregnancy with Sofie, I got hit hard with what I refer to as "The Nausea Monster" (Nausea ALL day. Beginning 30 minutes after I wake up until I go to bed) in addition to my very active toddler not napping at all for the first 6 weeks. *Wooosahhhhh* 

Luckily, the napping has gotten better. Some days she will skip it, so I try and roll with it as best as I can. Nausea seems a little better, and deep down I'm relieved to have it as a reminder that my body is working hard to nourish and grow a healthy baby. 

It's been so much fun talking to Sofie about the new baby.  She came with us to our first ultrasound appointment and pointed to the screen and said "Baby! Baby!"  It melted both of our hearts!

Here are some awesome reveal pics that we included on our last photo session with our amazing photographer, Monique Hessler.

Can I also just say what a relief it is to finally share the happy news? I'm excited to share with you this new chapter in our lives.  I have been doing my best with fitting in my workouts and trying to eat healthy.  I thought it would be easier to say no to all the junk, but sometimes pizza is the only thing that will settle well with this awful nausea.  The struggle is REAL! That will be it's own blog post, trust me!


I am also working on getting my new website up, and am really exciting about things to come!  Keep an eye out for www.FITspirationMom.net
