We are expecting our 5th baby! Without going into all the details, let me just say that it was nothing short of a miracle. We are now anxiously awaiting the arrival of this little person that is due sometime the end of September. That sounds so far away, but hopefully with a busy up-coming summer these months will melt away.... At least I would LOVE for the next 4 weeks to disappear so I can stop feeling so gross. It's crazy to me that something so small - like the size of a kidney bean - can make me feel so miserable. No appetite, yet starving. On the verge of hugging the toilet all day. Completely exhausted as if I had just ran a marathon. Bionic senses that prove to my destruction.... However, despite all of the grossness, I feel truly blessed.
On Valentine's Day we finally told our children. I put the letter's "B A B Y" in 4 balloons. I told the kids that we had one more Valentine's Day surprise, but they had to unscramble the letters to figure it out. Each child got a balloon to pop and then once they had all the letters, they went to work. It didn't take them long. It was a fun way to share the news with them and they were all really excited. Especially Lila. She is begging for the baby to be in her room with her.
