And One More Makes Five…

Well, as most of you reading this already know, we are expecting our third child in September 2015.  Just a short month and a half after Henry’s first birthday.  I am filled with a whole slew of emotions.  As if the hormones are not bad enough on their own, I am fighting an internal battle between the excitement of having a third child and the panic and fear of having two children so close together.  I knew I wanted a third child, and I am thrilled that I did not have to go through the stress of trying this time.  But, I had hoped that by the time the third child came Lily would be getting ready to go to school so that I would be home with just two children for most of the day.  I am also nervous about how Henry will react to a new baby taking his much needed attention away; and will Lily start paying more attention to the new baby or will she still be infatuated with Henry – I can’t even imagine what a shock it would be for him to go from being the centre of everyone’s world to being second in everyone’s eyes.  I am also feeling a little lost about how to prepare such a young child for such a huge change.DSC_0073
