Growing....

I was talking to my mom the other day and she mentioned that my brother didn't know I was expecting, "What!! I said? How can anyone NOT know I'm expecting. My stomach is huge!!" Then I realized that of course he lives in El Paso, and hasn't seen me since last August, when all this was happening. In February when we found out we were expecting again, I didn't tell anyone, I thought maybe if I said it out loud, I would jinx myself or something, I didn't even tell my mom and sisters (and I tell them everything!) for about 3 months or so... in fact, I didn't ever make any big "announcement" I just let people guess and wonder.... well there is no mistaking it now, I am expecting in October.


We're so thrilled, the kids couldn't be more excited, we found out a few months ago that we're having a baby GIRL!! Harrison is over the moon excited and will be the best big brother any baby sister could wish for. The first three months I felt awful, really awful, but that passed and now I feel great, even though the kids remind me every day that my stomach is huge! Yesterday Harrison informed me that I had the biggest belly button he'd ever seen. We feel very blessed to add a new member to our family, so far all is well and everyone is healthy. More updates to come!

I had talked with Scott a number of times about you being pregnant. He must have just spaced it when he was talking to your mom. You look great! We missed you and your family this weekend. Maren was a little lost with nobody her age to play with.
