Spilling the Beans!

Things are changing in big ways at our house! We are cleaning and getting rid of stuff. You ask why? Well take a precious look at this little boy and think why he is smiling so big after looking at his baby cousin Blake?

Kameron is going to be a big BROTHER!!!

 Keith and I are expecting our 2nd child due December 30th. We are now 16 1/2 weeks along. We have known for a while, since first of May, but since I have had a miscarriage in the past, we wanted to make sure we got out of the first trimester before we made the announcement. Also we had to tell some family members before we shared. Of course we are over joyed about this addition to the family, but it has sure been a rough road for us. I have been non stop sick and still am even being through the first trimester. The month of July has been really rough. 1st weekend of July I ended up in the ER from being sick for 3 days straight without keeping anything down and then again, I was admitted to the hospital yesterday to get more fluids for being sick for 2 days straight. Of course each time the baby was VERY active and the heartbeat was strong, but it has sure put a toll on Keith, Kameron and I and even Nathan and Madi when they are up here. I haven't been able to do things that I have normally done and we are ready for this stage of the pregnancy to be over with! Please keep us in your prayers as we adjust and make room for another baby in the house!

Of course we have wishes on this baby...but we are yet to share. I have another doctor's appointment at the end of this month and hopefully we will find out what "baby" is this appointment or next. Of course me being me, IMPATIENT, I am dying to know. I will be happy with either one, but wishing for a certain gender-- we are just wanting healthy!!

Of course when we explain to Kameron, he doesn't understand completely what we are telling him, but when my sister had her baby recently we knew he would be a GREAT brother! He was blowing kisses, with a HUGE smile and wanting to see baby Blake and still does. We can't wait to share this adventure together and with our families.

Thanks again for all the prayers and thoughts, they are much appreciated and we are so overjoyed to share this WONDERFUL news with you all.
