Excited

We are so excited to finally announce that a new baby will be joining our family this fall. We told the kids last night by having a baby dinner where we all used baby plates, spoons, bottles and bibs. It was fun.

It took the kids a while to figure it out. They thought we had to get the baby stuff out because my friend Angel just had a baby. We hinted that it was for someone who lives closer. Then they thought it was for our friend Jill, who is pregnant and lives a couple houses away. They kept guessing until they got to our next door neighbors. They then gave up. Until it clicked for Emma. They were all SO excited. Emma immediately began lecturing me about not eating too much candy and getting lots of fresh air and all the other things I needed to be careful about. It was sweet.

We spent today letting family and friends know. Now to plan. My ultrasound is in a couple of weeks but we are planning on the gender being a surprise again. Jared says girl. And he really has never been wrong with any of the kids. We even agree on a name! Can't wait!

Hope this baby is ready for the fun and craziness at our house! ;)
