I'm pregnant.
I'll give you a moment to absorb it.
I was going to have this long intro before telling but I decided to get right to the point. I am ten weeks along and we are thrilled. We just told Keegan and Isabelle today. They are pretty excited. Of course it is a very long time in a pre-schooler's mind. I am due May 30. It will be wonderful to have a warm weather baby. It will be wonderful to have a child with Jeff.
PS The kids have been thinking up names. Keegan just said he wished I hadn't named him Keegan but he would have preferred Fuzzbutt Fishbowl. Yeah that was our second choice.
Alisa. 37. New Hampshire. Married for almost three years to this wonderful, funny, smart guy. Previously married. Went through in-vitro fertilization to have my five year old magical son Keegan. Stepmother to the charming Isabelle (6). Gushingly in love with our baby boy Harper(1). Policy Wonk and dreaded bureaucrat. Lover of fine cuisine, honeybees, truly romantic moments and the underdog.
