#4

We will soon become a family of 6!!! We are expecting our 4th child in March. My actual due date is 3/22/10, but all the others have been a few days early, so I'm hoping this one will be too.

Yes, we were planning it and, no, we aren't trying for a girl. Obviously I will be happy with whatever God chooses to give us, but I am actually kind of hoping for another boy. I'm not sure I would know what to do with a little girl!!

We might not find out the sex this time and just be surprised when he/she is born. We are still in "discussion" about it, but Chris really wants to wait, we found out with all the other 3 and this is definitely our last, so we probably will wait. I'm very nervous about not finding out (I mean what if it's a girl and we don't have anything for her), but I will just have to learn to relax and enjoy one of life's little surprises!

I haven't been feeling great lately, just a lot of nausea that lasts the majority of my waking hours and I'm tired a lot, but I'm 11 weeks now, so I'm hoping it will pass soon.

We are all very excited, especially the boys. They have been praying for another baby for quite some time now, so this is an answer to prayer for them!

  2. Michelle, it was so weird. Chris and I were so indecisive about it and then one day it seemed like we were both just ready to have one more. It was neat how we both got the feeling at the same time and we were both so sure!
