-am i going to feel guilty for not giving jayden all of my attention?
-is jayden going to notice that he is not getting all of my attention?
-how is it even possible that i can love another child as much as i love jayden?
-is he going to be just like jayden?
-what is he going to look like?
i know that i will love this baby (there's no question about that) but as a mom with only one child it is hard to fathom having this much love (all the love i have for jayden; all the love in the world) for another child. and quinn thinks that all our kids will look and act like jayden. i guess that is what all first parents think. this will be very interesting. we are so excited for this little man to come, and answer all our questions.
here are a few pictures of our little jayden from day 1:

I thought that when I was pregnant with Strider. Then I loved him just as much. It's funny because you don't lose the love for the other kids but somehow you gain even more love than you thought you had.
I think every mother wonders and worries over all those questions! You will quickly learn that your love only multiplies with each child! If anything it makes you love your first even more than before, plus love the baby just as much as the older kid! It's crazy! And he will probably have his own personality completely different than Jayden. it's so fun and it will keep you on your toes!
wow, it's so crazy to think that we've known jayden for almost his whole life! it is really fun seeing all the pictures of jayden- he's pretty much the cutest kid on the planet.
Funny how much Jayden loves to have his mouth open! I think we wonder many of the same things as parents. Thankfully for us, Levi is much more laid back than Jacob was. It will be fun to see if they look alike or if the second one will come out with your coloring, etc. Too cute!
Seriously jayden is adorable! I am sure your next little boy will be as cute (Look at his parents)!!!! I can't wait to see pictures once you have another boy and all of your questions will be answered:)
Lexi, this is mom:
I remember having some of those same thoughts, but please know that love is not in a little container, it grows as you grow. I love all ten kids as much as you love jayden, now I get to have my container grow even bigger with with son and daughter in laws and grandkids. Can you even imagine the perfect love of our Heavenly parents and how large their container is, (never ending) that is how love works. I promise you that you will love Jayden Jr. as much as #1 son and all the others. Jayden will fill that love grow and it will help him feel the love for his brother. Don't worry you are doing great and all will be well. I love you so much. MOM
I'm so excited for you guys to have your second baby boy! I echo all of the comments that have already been made - it's amazing how much we can love each child, but hard to imagine before it happens. One of the most precious things about having more than one kid is when they interact with one another. I swear my heart feels like it's going to burst sometimes (with love) when I see my two little sweethearts laughing and loving each other. It's the best!
You will be so in love with your kids and family, that love will be falling out of your butt.
Well, at least that's what happened to me.
And Jayden is so handsome.
Believe me as a mother of 2 and a grandma of 5, you have enough love to cover each of your children (and grandchildren)! And they will probably be so different, you'll wonder how they came from the same genes. Yet, they will have so much in common! :)
