Mmmm … pickle ice cream …

I’ve been sitting on this news for awhile now, because I’m paranoid about this sort of thing. But we heard the heartbeat today! So all is well!

It still hasn’t really sunk in that Poppy’s going to be a big sister. She’ll be 2 years and 4 months old when Little One arrives, in mid-November. We do already have names picked out, but I haven’t talked to Rockford yet about whether we want to reveal them. I can assure you that it won’t be Little One.

I found this baby countdown widget at widgetbox.com, so I decided to put it in the sidebar (see “under development”) way over to the right). Only now I’m not so sure about it. Is it too creepy? What do you think?

  1. OH MY GOODNESS!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS! That is AWESOME! Piper will be an awesome big sister!!!! YAY! I’m so happy for you!

  2. I wondered who of my friends would be next…Congratulations!

    We want to hear all about it! The next time I head to Durham to visit my brother, you better be around for a visit!

  3. As in Chester Cheetah? I have been throwing back the Cheetos like nobody’s business. By that measure, though, Benandjerry Haagen-Daaz would also be an appropriate name.

  4. Congrats!! Maybe now you can dig out whatever baby outfit that was from Irene that you “lost” and put it to good use. (The details escape me now, believe it or not.)

    Hope you and Little One (great name, BTW) are feeling good.

  5. woo!!! congrats you guys!! keep us updated ! such exciting news and right before mother’s day no less 🙂 hehe

  6. Nichole, I am extremely excited. While in Chicago with Cristin, we’ve been discussing cute items that your baby needs. (Crafted by Cristin, of course.)

  7. Yeaaaa! What great news! Now, I have a question…is there someone else in your family having a baby? Did you post a sonogram or something calling it “Piper’s playmate” or something like that? Because I wasn’t sure if that was your way of saying that you were pregnant again or what…I had been thinking for a while that maybe you were pregnant because of this post that maybe I made up…or maybe I’m just super perceptive or have ESP or something!

    Congratulations!!!

  8. Congrats!
    I was just sitting here being bored putting out the Saturday paper and popped onto your site. What a surprise.
    I agree with Lora, the peach Irene outfit is a must! I must alert Irene! bwahahaha

  9. What exciting news! I am so happy for you and Alex. Piper will make a great big sister. I hope you have an easy pregnancy and when the baby comes, he or she will be healthy. Congrats to you both.
