New Baby Coming Soon!

But not soon enough! ;) Yep! We're having another baby. I'm really glad that Lilian won't be an only child. Do we want a boy or a girl? It doesn't matter, a healthy baby will be just great! A boy would be fun, and I've already got a boy name in mind. But a sister for Lilian would just be fabulous. I love my own sister so dearly, I can't imagine life without her. And a special thanks to Stacy for going with me to the Dr., corralling my girl, and splurging on Red Lobster with me. I LOVED spending time with you.

It's been a fun time telling our great news to all our family and friends. We've been on silent mode for at least a month now. Jeff could tell you, I've been bursting at the seems. I just like to talk! I bought Lilian a shirt yesterday that reads, "I'm the BIG sister!". We put it on her and invited our moms over. They were joyful to say the least, as Lilian greeted them and said, "See my new shirt". She loves to show off new things. Then we hit the phones calling our grandparents and close friends. Of course my facebook has been flooded with congrats, which makes us feel good too! Breaking the news at work has been fun as well. Jeff and I both have been hounded by questions of, "Isn't it about time for another one?". To which we just shrugged them off. Now we are all laughing about it. :)

So far so good, I've not been sick feeling. I am a little pudgier, and I don't think that's all baby, I've just been eating like crazy, even before baby. Oh well. I'm so proud of my family and look forward to meeting the new person. As always, we stand in awe of our most Awesome Creator in the miracle of Life. As if I needed another reason to believe in a Creator God...I had the thought recently, that if evolution were true, mothers would have at least 3 arms by now! Just sayin'...

ok, i'll get a picture up soon!
