Tom and I found out that we were expecting baby #3 on Sunday, October 23, 2011. I had some suspicions that I might be, but I knew it was still a little early for a positive test. But I decided to just take one for fun. To our surprise, we saw a faint line which confirmed the pregnancy.

As much as we were anticipating adding to our family, we were floored how quickly it happened. I was anticipating a few months of negative tests, but that's not what happened and that's a blessing. For the first week, I was in complete shock. I was scared. Actually I was more scared than I was when I found out we were pregnant with Jack. We already had two beautiful, healthy boys. What business did we have adding another child to our family? Some days I feel like I barely can control two, how in the world am I (are we) going to juggle three? It took a good week for things to sink in, and then all of a sudden, one day I just got really excited. Tom and I, since the day we started talking about getting married and having kids, have always said we wanted three kids. Sure three kids is more work, it's crazy, it's chaotic, it's stressful, it's demanding, it's a lot of work - but our house is going to be filled with love. Crazy, ridiculous amounts of love. And no matter what challenges or triumphs having three kids (three BOYS) will bring us - we have each other and there is nothing better than family.
