Generation 2 continues

Well, as I said before, Cheryl and I had a baby boy. We named him Adam. He grew up very quickly. He was such a good baby. We were lucky to have gotten a few promotions so we were able to have a nanny come in to help us out. Before we knew it, we had a toddler!

Here is Adam sitting in his high chair. He loved to sit in the chair and eat cereal while Cheryl and I ate our dinner. He has blue eyes just like me and Cheryl, and it looks like he may have her red hair.

Whenever I was able I spent time with Adam. I liked reading to him and teaching him things.

Before we knew it, Adam was a child getting ready to go to school.

Well, it seems Adam has my blonde hair instead of his mother's red hair. He's a handsome young man, though, no matter what his hair color is.

Cheryl came home from work the day after Adam's party and told me some exciting news! While at work she'd been feeling strange and a co-worker asked her when she was due. She'd had no idea why they would ask her that, but she had been feeling strange, so she took a pregnancy test she got from her lab. It was positive! She said that when she got home from work she looked down at her feet and couldn't see them! **

So we're expecting baby number 2. Cheryl is already on maternity leave, but this pregnancy is so easy for her she's spending a lot of time reading and learning new things. The only thing she hates is that she feels hungry all the time!

I'm looking forward to this 2nd baby. So is Adam. He's thrilled that he's going to have a little brother or sister.

Adam and I spend our evenings watching sports on TV. He wants to go to Academie Le Tour like me and his mother so he can watch the games there.

Life couldn't be any more perfect. We enjoy being together as a family. Since I only had foster families growing up, this is like a dream come true for me.

We got a few bonuses with our promotions over the last few weeks and we've been able to add the upstairs to the house.

Now that the upstairs is added, it's time to start painting and wallpapering. We still have to build a few more walls upstairs so Adam and his brother or sister can have their own rooms and a bathroom up there. We also want to enroll Adam into private school, so we have to make sure the house is up to snuff when the headmaster comes over. I don't know where we'll get the money, but we'll come up with it somehow.

**Note from simmer in charge - this 2nd pregnancy is really easy on Cheryl. With Adam she was sleeping a lot, but she never even had morning sickness with this one. She really did go to work and as soon as she got home her tummy popped out! She really looked surprised, too! **

Adam is certainly a handsome little boy. I can't wait to see if the next kid has Cheryl's red hair. Then you would have one of each. LOL The house is certainly shaping up nicely. It's huge!!
