the big news...

has it been that long since i've updated? well, caleb just turned 16 months and learning fast! he imitates most things that we say or do. it's so awesome! so the big news around our family is that....i am pregnant with baby #2!!! this is old news for most of you because jun and i announced it early this time. with caleb, we waited for a long time, but i guess we just couldn't contain ourselves this time! however, please keep us in your prayers since it is still early on. i think i am only 6 or 7 weeks. i am going to the doctor's next week. i found out when i was 3 weeks or so and from 3-6 weeks, i was feeling great...no nausea, no fatigue...nothing! haha, but of course it was way too early to tell. on the 6th week...it hit. the nausea and fatigue...as well as cramping. the nausea seems much worse than my first pregnancy, but the fatigue seems a little better because i remember falling asleep while teaching with the first! i really feel terrible everyday....like i can puke any minute but it won't come out...so disgusting. i feel like i have to flu everyday. i am also tired...too tired to keep up with caleb, so sometimes i just watch him play.

how i told jun this time...it wasn't very original, but i've always liked the idea. i made caleb a shirt that said "i'm a big brother." i put a jacket over it and made jun take off his clothes for bathtime that night. when he unzipped the jacket, he read it aloud once...then again....then looked at me and said, "shut up! you're pregnant?!" he was overjoyed. he screamed and came to hug me. jun is really happy. i was too...but right now i am too physically terrible that i don't show my excitement anymore. i hope this will only be the first trimester.

thanks for all the congrats. i can't even believe i'm having my second child...it still amazes me. we feel very blessed.

lastly...how has my adjustment been here? well, let's just say that it's still a lonely life for the most part...

this is caleb looking out the window on a rainy day in his raincoat...his washington gear!
we gave caleb his first haircut...well, sort of...
he had random long strands of hair, so we just snipped those few strands...but for some reason, he still looked like he got a haircut! we didn't think it'd make a difference.
