Hansen Baby #2!




The Hansen family is expecting a new member this November! We are so excited and cannot wait to meet this eager little spirit and welcome it into our family!

We found out on St. Patrick's Day, and to honor that Emma has decided to nickname this little one "Lucky" - we hope it fits! The doctors say that everything is looking wonderful so far. Emma is currently at 13 weeks and the official due date is on November 19th. She's doing GREAT! A little nauseated and tired, but we expected that since it comes with the territory. Her Diabetes is under control, and she has been working hard to keep her blood sugars perfect. The doctors are very pleased so far. We haven't seen an ophthalmologist yet, but are optomistic about the retinopithy that occured in her eyes when she was pregnant with Ethan, because it almost completely diminished after he was born. (Something OUR ophthalmologist did not anticipate, but we found out from other sources that it's actually very common for it to go away after the birth. Needless to say, we are NOT using the same eye doctor for this pregnancy.)

We thank all of you for your love and concern, especially those of you who have been so supportive and excited. It really means so much to us! We love you all! Thank you!

Yahoo! Congratulations! I can't believe you had to sneak in before me by 2 weeks. Who knows...maybe I'll end up giving birth early and we'll have twinners. :)

Well I feel dumb. all this time I was checking your other blog, Emma, and I'm like "why doesn't she do posts about the fam?" Then your mom told us that you had a family blog! Glad I found it. Congrats on the new baby. I'm sure Ethan will be a great big brother!
