Anticipating Baby 6

When I was a kid, I would say, "I am going to have 6 kids, a really big family!" I said that until I married James. I'm not so sure I believed it though. Now that its happening I am surprised, anxious, and happy. We weren't trying to get pregnant or anything. This is just a happy unexpected blessing.

I am looking forward to welcoming our new family member when he/she gets here. We have decided we do not want to know the sex this time. Its the sixth. There aren't many surprises left in this whole pregnancy thing. So why not have something to wonder about till the big moment. Only problem might be the fact that I am so good at identifying what is being shown on the ultrasound that I might see by accident!

When we first found out, I thought I was due in early to mid March. When I went to the doctor I thought I was about 10 weeks. But when she did the ultrasound, she said I was only 6 weeks. So my due date is April 7, 2011. I doubt I will make it to then though. I never do. My guess is March 29th-31st. My exact due date I predicted with Emily was right. She was due February 9th and I said she would be born on the 1st because that is my sister's birthday. I said that because her son was born on my birthday. Emily was born on February 1st. So we will see this time.



We can't wait to welcome our 6th baby!
