"I'M GONNA BE A BIG BROTHER!"

I was thinking," Kingston is only 2 months old, so there is no way... I mean just NO WAY that I could be pregnant. I guess I'll just take the test for fun. Nobody will know and it will just confirm the fact that I'm not pregnant."
I bought the test in Kaneohe, picked up Joe from the airport, and made our way back to Laie. Before going to sleep I went to the bathroom and took the test.
The craziness in my head went a little something like this...
"Uhhh okay... this looks like it says positive. That's gotta be wrong. That's what I get for buying the cheapest test! 99% accurate like it says on the box must be a good story! Holy crap... what if this if this is for real? No way it can't be. Please don't be. Kingston is only 2 months. I just had a baby-What will everybody think of me having kids every year? I'm gonna buy another test tomorrow and see if the results are the same. Something has gotta be wrong."
So as stubborn as I am I go to Foodland the next morning. I buy another test this time it came in a 3 Pack. If I took the test 3 times and it came out positive all 3 times, I would believe it myself. I still remember walking into Laie Foodland and hoping nobody would see me in the aisle where they sold the test or at the checkout counter buying it. I was so paranoid for some reason. All of you from Laie know what I mean right? You could bump into anyone at anytime at Laie Foodland. But I was desperate and had to know so Laie Foodland it was!
I took the test another 3 times. Positive, positive, positive.
Today I am 17 weeks pregnant with baby #3! My attitude and outlook has changed through this experience. I am happy and grateful for baby #3. I am honored that Heavenly Father believes I can handle this. I feel hopeful that this was God's plan from the beginning and I'm part of fulfilling it. I realize that it will be challenging but this is what I need to progress. I am thrilled that some of my bestest friends are pregnant with me at the same time. I love Kienna Mika, Kingston, and Baby #3. I'm so grateful for Joe and his patience, kind heart, love for our family, and genuine love for me. He really is the perfect husband for me. I'm happy that our family is growing even though it's at a pretty rapid rate. I'm honored to be a mom. I'm grateful for the many talks this past general conference on parenting and motherhood. I have faith that everything will be okay. Baby #3 will be here in September!
Kienna will be barely 2 yrs old and Kingston will be 11 months when baby #3 comes along.

Congrats! You can totally do this! Piece of cake. Well maybe not a piece of cake but you'll get through it. Having three is so much fun. Stressful but rewarding. And if people look down on you for having kids so quickly, then they don't know the divine plan of our Heavenly Father. I totally know what you mean about the whole pregnancy test thing. I bawled when I found out it was positive. We just moved to Utah and Kainoa was just starting law school. I was pretty much a single mom that first year but luckily Kainoa passed all his classes. Whatever you do, make sure you get in some dates with Joe before #3 comes. It's so much harder to find a babysitter with 3. And don't forget to have your own timeout too. Take care and good luck with everything.
OH MY GOSH MIKS! soo throughout all our fb convo..you don't mention that you're pregos? (how rude!) well congratulations! sounds like you will have you hands full but you're right with the good attitute and good outlook. so positive! you'll be a great mom-man should i jump on the band wagon? seems as though everyone is getting pregnant..(i'll answer that for you-not yet!lol)
Wow, you have got your hands full! But you're so right--Heavenly Father believes you can do this, so you CAN do this! :) Congrats! And just look at it this way... The faster you get them out, the faster you get to stop having kids, lol. That's what I tell myself at least so that I don't take forever again to have my next kid. :)
Congratulations!! I can't imagine having all 3 kids so close together but like everyone else is saying, the Lord knows you and knows you can do it! Good luck!
Congratulations!! I can't imagine having all 3 kids so close together but like everyone else is saying, the Lord knows you and knows you can do it! Good luck! You guys will do great!
Holy smokes Miki! Congratulations! You guys are very brave, Heavenly Father must know how strong you are. Maybe that's why we haven't had #2 yet, I gotta get tougher I think! I've been off my blog for a while, but am trying to get back on. I just made it private, so can you email me your email address so I can send you an invite (that is of course if you want one!)? (valaquino@hotmail.com) Take care! -val =)
Congrats Miki! I'm sure you guys can handle this or else it wouldn't have happened! Babies come when they are supposed to. I know this from experience! I can't wait to keep reading the updates!
I'm reading this to my mom and she is laughing. She told me to tell you "I know how you feel." We are almost as close as yours are: Josh 1/30/78, Me 2/19/79, & Cameron 4/29/80. You are/must be a special one. Good luck with everything. I'm constantly getting asked when I'm having another one/when am I going to try for a boy. I love my girls and we want more, just not now. You will be blessed sooo much. Love you!
