It's a boy!
For those who didn't already know, we are officially pregnant with Bub #2 on the way. Due date is March 20, 2009, that makes Steph pretty much in the middle (20 weeks) of the pregnancy. It's taken a while to announce, as we were waiting to get my family in the one place at the one time to tell them (which was apparently harder than initially thought!). Anyway, we're very excited about the prospect of a new baby; and on Wednesday last week we found out that it's a boy! That's particularly handy, given we had a boy's name already sorted out :) Steph has had a pretty rough trot thus far in the pregnancy, with a great deal more morning sickness, dizziness, vagueness and tiredness than the first time, combined with the fact that we do have an "almost 3 year old" to look after during all of this. Speaking of, Aurora is quite excited as well about the thought of a new brother, however we'll see how she feels once he gets here :)

congratulations on announcing at last :)
i was much sicker/more dizzy/vague/tired when pregnant with rufus than i am this time around with our daughter. someone told me women's bodies can't cope with the extra testosterone in the boy foetus and that's why pregnancy with a boy is often harder. and testosterone apparently has the effect of making it only possible for the pregnant woman to focus on one thing at a time. certainly true with me last time anyway!
anyway, congrats again. i'm so happy we're both having matching pairs, we'll have them married off in no time ;)
Great news - hope Steph is feeling a bit better. Donna was pretty crook with BOTH preggy's - seems like an eternity at the time, but it's "only" a year (or there abouts).
We had a great book to show Cameron, might be good for Aurora - "there's a house inside my mummy, where a little baby grows..."
Won't be long till we meet the "new Neumann" - or should that be the "Neuboy"...? Version 2.0 !?!
Congratulations to you, Steph and Aurora. You saw how I was when pregnant with Tristan....I'm sure it's a boy thing, the vagueness etc. I also remember being very angry all the time, not sure if it was because of increased hormones or the simple fact I was working with oxygen thieves! Totally with your friend Jade too on the matter of the testosterone and focusing on one thing at a time! Like there's no other way with the blokes!
Thats awesome, 1 of each :)
Anyway something I did when Tyler arrived, was buy Mitchell and gift from Tyler just saying thanx for being my big brother, helped with the adjustment of their being a new person, especially a baby in the house...
Congrats once again guys :)
