That's right, this fall we're expecting baby #3 and it's going to be a girl! Special thanks to J for doing the artwork on this. In case you can't tell, that's me on the left holding baby girl's hand. And even though it looks like I have a huge bum, I'm actually wearing a dress in this picture. I think.
Now, I've got to be honest with you guys. I'm super excited about having a girl, but I'm also a bit nervous. After living in all-boy world for the past nearly-five-years, I'm not really sure what to do with a girl. And our playroom is already pretty darn packed with toys for boys. I'm hoping she really likes tools and cars and superheroes. Now to answer the usual questions:
I'm due toward the beginning of November.
I'm feeling fine, though I was definitely sicker toward the beginning with this one.
J is so excited to have a new baby in the family, especially a baby sister. C is just confused why I can't just take the baby out of my tummy right now and show her to him. And he thinks he has a baby in his tummy too.
Peter is excited too. And a little nervous since he knows even less about baby girls than I do.
I will post some pregnancy pictures as soon as I actually start to look pregnant and not just awkward. You see, I carry all my babies really low. So low that I never get that cute little pregnant bump thing going on--I just sort of get thicker somewhere around my waist area. Oh, how I envy the cute pregnant bump, but I'll take what I can get. It's a very small price to pay for a healthy baby.
We are so excited!
