The month before we left for AZ, Trav had been well acquainted with this area of our house... the basement. No, he wasn't in the {dog house}, he was studying for the boards. Occasionally he'd come up for fresh air or victuals, but other than that he was mostly MIA. He took the exam on July 17, then off we went on our trip knowing his results would likely be waiting for us when we got back.
The day after we got home, I went off to the store and the mail came. He patiently waited over an hour for me to get back before opening it. (And even posed for a picture... what a guy).
He PASSED! Hooray!
Congrats Trav! This was no easy thing to study for and I know it took a lot of hard work and effort to make it happen so I am very proud of him!
Ok, that's the good news, and now for the GOOD NEWS.....
we are expecting another baby in February!
Sadly, I went through my picture archives looking for the picture of the day I took the test, and couldn't find one. I forgot to take one! I guess this is a good indication of how {on top of things} I'll be with #2. Poor child.
I am feeling fine, until I get hungry... then the nausea sets in. It's wise to have crackers with me at all times. I may be a tad bit more emotional also.... a month or so ago I was having a crying spell and memoaning my hormones when Trav muttered, "It's gotta be a girl". Everyone else seems to agree. But we won't know for at least a month. In the meantime I am on the hunt for sundresses or moomoos/mumus (is that how you spell it?) This humidity is killing me!

Ya gotta love the double Good News! ;) I couldn't be more happy for Trav & the boards. What a relief to have that over with right? And I am just thrilled that you're having another baby!!!
Congrats to you both! Double good news! You should check out Clothes Mentor on Sheridan. They just opened it up last month and it's like Plato's Closet for women with a maternity section too.
Yeah Trav and Steph! It's a huge relief to pass the boards. I'm also so excited that you will be having 2 kids along with me. We can talk about all of our frustrations and joys. And...i'm also secretly hoping that your having a girl, even though 2 boys would be loads of fun!
Congrats, Steph!! I am the queen of loose, comfy dresses. They are my favorite. As you know, most of mine come from Down East. They aren't maternity dresses, but they might as well be. Love that.
CONGRATS!!!
I am officially offended. However we are excited for another cousin to come. Keep the boy streak going!
Congratulations to both of you on the pregnancy and to Travis on passing the boards!! Honestly I love having the 2 boys so close in age to play with each other and Isabelle I have all to myself!!
Congratulations!! What great news...both parts of it! How fun for Collin to have a little playmate:)
FANTASTICO!!!
yes, the poor #2 child doesn't get quite get the red carpet that #1 got, but they live through it. I can't wait to hear IF ItS A boY OR A girl. :)
