Because everyone else is doing it?

Almost 6 years ago, we were here:

My dumpr

Then add three years and a lot of thought and planning and you get us here:



and a few months after that we got ourselves one of these:
Elliott New Baby030

Well...see where this is headed?....
almost 6 years later we look like this:

IMGP2621 copy2

and a few months ago (4 in fact) we got another positive one of these (after a week of negative ones...silly tests):


and today, we went and had a thing done and got this:

We found out that we're adding another one of these to our family:
DSCN2346

he is scheduled to arrive via c-section sometime around here:



We're considering referring to this one as this (codename: Chowder):
Really though? We haven't told anyone unless it was on a need to know basis, which means about 12 people. The adults in our little family are excited. The monkey in the family doesn't care. When asked, "Do you want a baby to come and live at our house?" he replies, "Nope."
If you have any questions? Ask HIM!

i'm so happy for you guys. i've never planned anything like that.

Chowder? Who in the world is that?

Did you really have to show us pictures of the pee stick?

Annie,

I am so pleased for you guys. I'm glad I have two as they entertain each other so well. I'm not sure if it is the fact that they are siblings or rather that they are so close in age they were bound to become playmates! I hope your family proves as harmonious as mine did when it expanded!

I'd also like to know a color scheme or theme for the little guy.

On another note, how is our blood sugar doing with the new addition?

Tara had to tell me to read this thing. I just don't have enough time. But HEY! Your Christmas card was a hint...for those more on the yellow side. And my mom called it about 2 months ago. she said to me one Sunday evening; "i Think Annie is prego again." Well boy was she ever so right. Yippee!! and i get to see this one be a baby :)

I loved being the few that already knew...even though I wasn't smart enough to pick it up with the Christmas card. I am so excited for you all, I am excited to see Elliot with him!
