Presenting: Vallen-two-ny

Granted, the name may need a little work. 

We had our 20 week scan last week and I'm pleased to report that all is well. Everything is average and we love average. The only thing that was a little bit towards one end of the average spectrum was the baby's stomach, but considering its mother's predilections, that 
is perhaps not a surprise.

Due date is 22 July. We found out the gender, but as with Ada, we're going to keep that to ourselves.

I'm feeling fine - they say every pregnancy is different, but so far this one is proceeding exactly as before. Except for having a toddler, of course. I'm a bit more tired and my back hurts a little more, but that's most likely just a result of wrangling Ada. 

We haven't really started talking to Ada about having a sibling, since we have 20 more weeks to go and that's a long time for her. She does seem to be interested in babies in general, which I'm encouraging, and she does occasionally answer "yes" to the question "would you like a baby to come live with us?"

So all is well, and we're halfway through!

I think it's a girl. Because I want it to be a boy. And of course, my inner thought processes are what determines the gender.

I'm glad the two of you are doing well.

Just make sure you switch to "We're having a baby come live with us" before Ada changes her mind!
