I Told Nick

I was so nervous driving home from work last night about telling Nick. Not that he would react poorly, but just telling him. And I wanted it to be special. Of course, in true Karen/Nick fashion, it wasn't quite that way! I got home from work and all I could think about was spilling my guts and all Nick could think about was calling Verizon since our home phone wasn't working. I finally had Nick away from the phone and I grabbed Katarina and told her to tell Daddy that Mommy was having a baby. She started whimpering and saying no. Haha! Nick finally came into the room and I told him that Katarina had something to tell him but she was being shy. So I told him. He looked surprised, he said great, then he started doing something else! It wasn't until a minute later that he shouted, "come here!" and gave me a big hug and kiss. I guess it is to be expected - I had 24 hours of prep time on him! He was in shock. He didn't even ask me when I was due though. He immediately started lecturing me about my eating habits. He said he was excited and when I told him I was scared to death he couldn't understand why. He is just so gung-ho about another child. He already calls him (I say him because I think that is what "it" is, even though "it" is actually nothing right now) Baby S 2.0. This morning he said goodbye to my tummy. He's so cute.
