New Additions!!!!








Hey there long lost friends! As many of you probably already know we have some wonderful news! We are having another baby!!!! I am about 10 weeks along and we are due on May 19th. The craziest part of all of this is that we are just one of three growing families on the Early side! Andy and Autumn are expecting #2 on March 23rd (My b-day, lucky day!) We are expecting our #2 on May 19th and now for the kicker. Amanda and Todd are expecting their #2 and #3 and their original due date was May 19th. Since they are expecting twins the due date of course was bumped up about 3 weeks but I also went 3 weeks early with Bella so the race is on! My poor parents! Very lucky grandparents but let's be honest - it is going to be a three-ring circus! God willing our family will extend from 5 grandkids during summer vacation last July to 10 grandkids (don't forget precious Lincoln) plus the 4 new ones by next July.






I remember the day after Kaitlin and Zane's wedding. We were all sitting around and talking about how beautiful it was and wanting to look at each other's pictures of it. There was only one problem. Unlike Ryan and I's wedding (the last one) no one got any pictures of their own because we were all running around like mad people chasing our kiddo's and trying to be at the right spot at the right time. I can't even imagine what the next wedding will be like! I don't think Grandma and Papa will be able to carry all of the grandkids back to the reception hall so that we can do group photos!






Anyways - We are thrilled and although Bella doesn't have a clue that her world is going to be turned upside down, she is starting to really like babies. When we were home (telling my family the good news) she liked giving Lincoln kisses. Sorry Ali - It pretty much means that she licks his head but Lincoln took it well. He is such a good little sport. She also likes to wave hi and she does get a little frustrated that they don't wave back. We are hoping that we get to celebrate her 2nd birthday before the baby arrives but if it is as persistent as Bella, maybe not! I guess it would probably work out better for Grandma and Papa if they could kill two birds with one stone and hit a birth and second birthday in one trip. We will see what we can do for them.






Other exciting news is that we are the proud owners of a new computer. Hopefully I have better luck with this one. So far, I love it!
