Small pox and another contagious conditions




So on Friday Richard was scheduled to get his small pox vaccination. Apparently when you get it they make you fill out this questionnaire and one of the questions was about someone in the household being pregnant. So he called me and asked "is there a high possibility that you could be pregnant?" We have been trying to have another baby so naturally the answer was "yes!" He said he would call me back. He went in as planned at 7:30 am but the small pox clinic wasn't open yet so he proceeded to the go to get his yellow fever vaccination. After he got his yellow fever shot they went and opened the small pox clinic. He talked to them about the possibility of me being pregnant and they just told him that until we found out for sure that he shouldn't sleep in the same bed as me. So Richard went ahead and got the vaccination. Well I took a test on Saturday morning and surprise, surprise! Guess who's pregnant! ME!!!
 lol, poor Richard. He feels so bad. He really didn't think I was pregnant and now the poor guy is sleeping on the floor! haha, he cannot sleep in the same bed as me until his small pox vaccination site scabs up and falls off which is supposed to take about a month. But, despite all of that drama, we are very excited to be expecting our second child. (this is a picture of Steven kissing our friends little girl Gabbie) Steven going to be such a great big brother. I am about 5wks along now and am due April 28th. ( Oh and by the way he was getting those vaccinations as part of his in-processing to his job. He's not getting deployed until November 2009 but he flys on planes so they routinely fly all over the world where they need those vaccinations. )
