our family just got a little more blue.

No, I don't mean sad.

In fact, it's just the opposite.

We were ecstatic to learn on Valentine's Day that

we are having another healthy baby BOY!

While we didn't get "the" shot, like we did with Brady

(dare we say this one is more reserved already?!)

We can't help but chuckle at this photo

at the way his hand is positioned.

Could he be giving us the sign for "drink, please?!"

Yep, definitely a boy!

Big Week Ahead!

Valentine's Day and "Find Out The Sex Day" is this week! Same day, actually. We're all abuzz in the Eatherton household... don't know if we can make it 2 more days. Hard to believe we're almost at the midway point of the pregnancy too (18 weeks today). This is when I start packing on lbs., so we thought we'd take our first photo to chronicle the growth.

I'm a little bigger than I was with Brady at this point (they say you show faster with #2), but not too big yet. If you're wondering why I looked bigger at 13 weeks that I do at 17 weeks, well, I was trying to be dramatic for the photo's sake back then (the "announcement" photo/post).

Here is Baby E #2 a couple days ago, at 17 weeks... the size of a turnip.

Onward and outward!

the baby is a little ripe

{Size of Baby E no. 2, 16 weeks}

This week, our little “peanut” is actually a little “avocado”.

Last week, s/he was an apple. A medium-sized shrimp the
week before. I think it’s humorous to compare the
growth of my developing child with food, considering food
is pretty much all a pregnant woman can think about.
But it’s actually been fun sharing those details with
Brady; it’s something tangible that he can understand.

Imagine his terror last night though, when his baby brother/sister
became dinner… What can I say, it was Taco Thursday!

It's Friday-- time for another Project 52 post. While it would have been nice to get one other post in this week, I'm happy to be staying on track with at least one project these days! And once you read on, you'll understand a bit more why I've been such a flake lately.

Today's post is an especially special one (I don't think that's proper grammar, though it certainly describes it to a T). Or as Brady would say, it's "super awesome". First off, I'm really excited that the Hubs finally embraced his position behind the camera and captured an amazing moment between Brady and I, but more than that, I am so glad to be getting this news out. Make it public. Totally get it off my chest, don't have to hide it no mo', scream it from the rooftops... out.

our family… is growing.

{13 weeks, 4 days}

We’re happy to announce that we’ll be welcoming our second child this summer! We certainly broke the mold when we made Brady, and it’s taken us 3 years to “create” a new one.
We couldn’t be more excited to be going on this adventure and look forward to meeting our bundle of joy around mid-July.

Big brother-to-be is hoping for a little brother. Stay tuned…
