Well there are so many days that I classify as unforgettable. Some of those days are happy, and then there are some that are sad. Which day do I pick and how do I choose? Well I am going to go with and unforgettable period of time only because I don't remember the details all that well.
So I go back to 2012.....It was the summer my hubby was gone on a work trip to Canada, I had recently snagged a new job and was going to be starting soon. I went out for supper with some relatives and one comment was made asking when we are going to make Carter a big brother. Well that was the issue the pipes didn't seem to work, but how do you tell people you are trying your hardest and its not easy? You don't you just shrug it off and hope that people never ask again, or you turn the conversation into a different topic. That was just what I did and told everyone how excited I was to start my new job and yet sad to leave my old job. I loved my job but I really wanted something in the accounting field since I had my BA Degree. We ended the night stuffed and ready to go home. So Carter and I went home the hubs was coming home the next day and we were super excited to see him. I felt like crap the next day and I was pretty nervous that I was getting sick because I couldn't get sick I started the new job in just 2 days. Tired oh was I tired, but why.....Well lone behold I didn't realize with the job change, the hubbies trip, moving mom into her new house that wow I was late. How could this be? Well it was true, but how....and now how do I keep a secret because I want to make sure I keep this one and not tell everyone only to have to say I had a miscarriage again. So we told our moms because our dads couldn't keep their mouths shut. And then we waited and waited and waited until I hit 12 weeks. Well 12 weeks was right at Carters birthday party. So he got a t-shirt. A t-shirt the poor kid was pissed, but we said lets put it on and well everyone had a hard time reading it but they finally got it! Yup he's going to be a big brother. So after trying so much, and finally giving up on getting prego the month before we finally got what we wanted. But how on earth do I tell my new employer that hey yeah I know i just stated but I am prego. Lone behold one of the best HR ladies ever, I told her that I was pregnant. She was worried I was going to quit but I was just worried I was going to qualify for Short term disability. And now we have a very healthy happy 4 year old and I couldn't imagine life without him. There are days Carter feels like Miles is a pain, but then there are days he actually likes his brother.
