NOT 1, NOT 2, NOT 3, BUT 4........ 5 if you count my husband!


Well, I thought I would share our big news!!!!!! Our kids are so excited they tell everyone including janitors, random checkers at the grocery store, and people we do not even know. Sooooo..... Here it is..... we are having another baby the beginning of SEPTEMBER. We are all excited.... Especially Jayson! Mom is a little over whelmed with zero energy and the pukes, and wondering if she can do this again? Scared...... to say the least! The kids, and of course grandmas are so excited and besides themselves. They have already picked out names and have major plans.....for when the baby comes. Which in Jenna's words "is too long away". I would have to agree!!!!
This year is the year of the baby in both my family and Jayson's. All, but one of my sisters, sis-in-law in my family are all expecting within a month of me, and Jayson brother Jerry and Katie are expecting within a couple of weeks..... of us. There must have been something in the punch at the Family PARTIES!!! We are excited for Cousins to be so close!!! It is nice for me to have someone to share the morning sickness blues with, and actually have someone that can relate.
We are blessed that we get another one to add to our family. Let's hope we can manage without being a too CRAZY family of 6! Wow that number even scares me!!!

Congrats again, and Good Luck! I have to say I've been feeling a bit left out(and I know it's no ones fault)of the whole baby boom. Anyway we're way excited for you and Katie too. Corbin and Aidan can't wait for more cousins!

Congrats...sorry you are feeling so yucky! It is too soon for me, I still remember it all too vividly! I don't like being pregnant much!! But the end result is great! Can't wait to hear what it is! Thanks for Jayson talking to Landon and your words on my blog!! I appreciate it. And 4 kids is hard, but handleable.
