All the fun details!!!

This is a hand-me-down shirt that I happened to have (I think it was Emma's). So when I found out I was pregnant (In the middle of the day) I put it on McKenna...

And then Ryan came home from work....

And he took a closer look...

And I think he was thrilled. What do you think?

Ryan sort of knew this was possibly coming so it wasn't a huge surprise. I can usually tell the moment I get pregnant. And things pretty much work like clock work around here, so we have yet to be surprised by a baby. I found out I was pregnant for sure at around three weeks and already this has felt like a super long pregnancy. I'll be honest, pregnancy is not my thing. I get all the bad symptoms a person could get and this time seems even worse. But I know that it's worth it. I know that we're blessed. And I rejoice everyday at the miracle that God has placed in our lives.

So here's the scoop:

I'm 10 weeks pregnant.

We'll find out sometime in late Oct. if it's a boy or girl. YES, we like to find out!

Due Date: March 19, 2011

The baby is the size of a plum.

We already had an amazing ultrasound! We saw the heartbeat and tiny wiggling arms and legs!

Is God an AWeSoME creator or what!!!!

Fridays are my flip days (you know...the day when I can say I'm another week along), so there will probably be lots of Friday posts about this baby!

Next Dr. appointment is next Thursday. Can't wait!

Christian thinks we should name the baby Thomas if it's a boy (I guess he still loves trains) or Sally if it's a girl (because of the blue car named Sally in the Disney movie Cars). I wonder how he's going to feel when the baby is named something completely different?

The kids are excited! McKenna is frustrated that she can't see the baby and Christian does not appreciate the dry heaving I've been doing on a daily basis (he always tells me to take a break :) from whatever I'm doing as I run to the bathroom (Sorry, that was probably TMI). But they are ready. McKenna is has moved into her big girl room successfully, so the crib is empty once again. Now we just need to potty train. Ugh.

And so we are thrilled that God is continuing to write the story of our family. We are so blessed. We know it! Everyday I am thankful for the blessings of this new sweet baby!
