another

not my idea

just agreed to it after a bit of a tantrum

wanted to have more of a break

it took on the first try

it wasn't just a test of my faith
looking for a midwife
excited

patrick is up for the challenge
justin looks at me in a different way

with a twinkle in his eye

{he understands it}

anna wants to know if she gets a sister ASAP

considering finding out the gender for the first time ever

{she begs me to find out}

dallin thinks it's a dirl

devon pulls up my shirt, pokes my belly and says baby

 

 

more than i remember with previous times

up and down nausea

so glad a warm epsom salt bath usually makes it all better

{i take lots and lot of those}

glad we have a well for water and a new soaker tub

can't stand the smells of cooking

even bacon!?!?!

what's up with me?

exhausted

MUST take a nap every day

luckily i don't have to lay on the couch all day very often

picky eater

tummy fills quickly

sensitive to textures

eating some sugar for the 1st time in a year

must eat hamburger!

and Mexican food

and ketchup

and chocolate

and oranges

and grilled cheese sandwiches

and sushi

and tomatoes

but not combined

phew!

 

glad to have had a strong prompting

it will make it easier when things are hard

His idea

 

happy to have a miracle growing inside of me

baby number 5 is due around the end of summer

all the seats in the 7 passenger mini-van will be full

another baby to love
 another element to add to the beautiful chaos

what a blessing!
