A new bundle of joy!

Jarod and I are very excited to let everyone in our secret: we are pregnant! Yes this was planned- we wanted one more kiddo in our family! I am currently 7 weeks along and feeling really nauseous! I went to the doctor a week or so ago and got to see the heartbeat. At the time it was 3mm long with a strong heartbeat. It was beautiful!

Our due date is January 21, 2011, and now the process of gathering baby things, seeing as we have gotten rid of everything, has begun. Garage sale season has been good to us and helped to get some things we need. We are really excited for this new one!

The kids were fun to tell. We gathered them up for our prayer time before bed and Jarod told them we had some news for them. He told them Mommy has a baby in her belly and that we are having a baby. Sean smiled and said he was excited. Ethan laughed then said "that's weird!" and Kaitlyn smiled and said she was happy. Kaitlyn asked me yesterday if I could tell the baby to be a girl. :-) Sean is my protector and while Ethan was telling me some gross story the other day, told him to stop b/c Mommy's going to be sick! :-)The kids are super happy and ask about the baby a lot.

So that's our news!Surprise! hee hee!
