Last week we were sitting at the dinner table, talking about the new baby. "Kids, what do you think? Are you hoping for a boy baby or a girl baby?" asked daddy. Most of the answers were predictable:

Seth: "A boy baby."
Lorraine:"A girl baby."
Agnes: "A girl baby.
Marcus, scrunching his face in deep thought: "Ummmm..... A motorcycle."

Sorry little Marcus, it looks like big brother was right (what's new?) Our next little blessing is a boy blessing!


The ultrasound was great: all his tiny little parts seem to be functioning beautifully! In the large picture at the top of the page you can see his little hands! How fun!

I am already halfway through this pregnancy, and beginning to realize that next fall I will be a mommy at home with FOUR preschool BOYS! Oh my goodness! I'd better stock up on supplies! Tattoos, swords, guns, bandages, ice packs....

Hm, maybe Marcus is on to something.... perhaps I am the one that could use a motorcycle?

JUST KIDDING JOSH!
