Anticipation...


There is some big time anticipation mounting over here.

The boys were excited to wake up two weeks ago to a breakfast of cinnamon rolls (reserved for only special occasions) and this centerpiece.

Even after Xander read the word and counted the candles, it still didn't sink in right away.

But now the house is in a flurry of excitement.

An ultrasound and midwife appointment this week confirmed that everything is going smoothly.  There is nothing quite like hearing that heartbeat for the first time...

We are breathing a happy sigh of relief and looking forward to welcoming a new baby around October 1st!

    Oh, Hooray! That is very exciting news. And I love that you'll have a midwife! Home delivery or birthing center? I'm in the middle of watching 'The Business of Birth', and loving it!

    Thank you so much. We are so very excited and I just have this funny feeling that I'll be fighting for time to hold him/her!!! The boys have been asking for a long time and praying almost nightly for a new baby!

    I'm feeling ok. Thankfully, I don't get super sick in the first trimester. Mostly just queesy and irritable.

    Kiara, We adore our midwife and are planning on another homebirth.
