Answer: 2 and Counting!

Yup, you all were correct! A+! We are, indeed, pregnant! I'm due in January, so, it's still pretty early on. But, it was a wonderful Mother's Day gift! (I took the test this past Sunday.) When we told Emily and Christian, Emily said, "Yeah! I want it to be a brother and a sister, at the same time!!" Uhhh, not happening there sweetie. Christian, however, said "Noooo," and, pointing to himself, he said, "Baby!" Hm. Well, at least there's time.

Anyhow, needless to say, it was a great Mother's Day! Emily came in around 6:30 and she wanted to snuggle for about 15 min--a very rare treat! (And, since I now wake up all on my own at 5:45, I didn't mind! I don't get sick while pregnant, I just get insomnia.) Christian then woke up and we pulled him in bed with us. Bed party!

I then got all teary-eyed listening to Emily sing her sweet Mother's Day songs at church and after church I even got a nap! It was fantastic. That evening, we headed over to my mom's where Kyle and Erin had made us all dinner and we gave our big news to the family. Oh, and the day before, Cubby had dug up a place in our backyard for our vegetable garden. Both Saturday and Sunday, my family made me feel very loved and appreciated. It was really sweet.

Despite the challenging days, I just love being a mother and am so grateful that we get to welcome someone new into our family in just 8 more months!
