Baby Fowler #2



We are so happy to be expecting Baby #2!  I am 14 weeks along and due March 17.  This pregnancy has been very different from my first, so we are anxious to see if that means we might be having a boy this time.  We won't know that until the end of October.  During my first trimester I had only "waves of nausea" but nothing too horrible.  The biggest difference has been that I am still just as tired, if not more so than the first go round, but now I come home to a little girl who still wants my attention!  By dinner time I am wiped but trying to hang in there.  By the time Char goes to be around 7:30-8:00 I am either lying on the couch, or lying  in bed myself!
I have started to realized that I am having a few cravings!  For some reason, sandwiches are always on my mind.  I prefer that they are made by someone else, so I have been frequenting some fast food places.  We even went to Chick-fil-a and I ordered the chicken salad sandwich instead of the nuggets!  Gasp!  I have also been longing for avocado, especially on sandwiches.  :)  And, just like with Charlotte, I crave fried pickles or cheese fries with ranch dip.  Healthy, I know.  Also, when a food pops into my head, I have a very hard time not thinking about that food.  For example, at 9:00 in the morning the other day my student told me that she was going to the Rangers game that night and I instantly wanted nachos.  I wanted it all day but alas I never did get any.
We feel very blessed to be given this blessing of a second child for our family.  We ask for your prayers that this pregnancy is smooth, safe, and that this sweet baby is healthy.
