Well, here it is, the big news...

We are pregnant...

First thing in your mind is probably.. OH NO! Will it have down syndrome?
First thing in our mind.. Praise Jesus, we are pregnant.

To ease your mind, we are not at all worried about down syndrome or aspergers or cerebral palsy or heart defects or cleft palate. Just like any other expectant parent, we are just happy to be pregnant. Whatever happens good or bad is in our Lords hands and we will be praising Him with what we get. On that note, I will not know much about the babies health until further along, and I will NOT be getting an amniocentesis. Not for all the money in the world. Dakota and Skylar are blessings in our life, and given to us for a reason and so shall this child.

We are due around March 18Th. So I should be nice and pleasantly plump and ready to grub on Christmas. Just sayin'. I am not sick with morning sickness yet. ( KNOCK ON WOOD) and am feeling great! There is a lot to be done in the up and coming months, including getting a new car that can hold us all. As some of you know, I have a ford focus hatchback that can barely fit us in it. There is no way I can fit two car seats and Skylar in the back. This will be a sad day as I LOVE my bright orange car. I don't know what we are going to do yet. But I am guessing, ugh, a minivan or something. Something cheap and cheap on gas. We are going to have to get Jude puppy lessons, because right now he is really rough and doesn't know his own strength. And that scares me.

Ok well just wanted to update those who actually read this. Will keep you posted!!
