Our big news

Without further ado, I present the latest addition to our little family.



Yep. It’s no joke. I’m 13 weeks tomorrow. Amelia and her sibling will be 13 months apart. Umm – wow. We’ve known since New Year’s Eve, so we’ve almost gotten used to the idea. Mike’s adjusting better than I am, but I’m getting there. I’m still pretty sick, but I feel like it’s better than it was at this point last time, so I’m hopeful it won’t be nearly as bad as it was with Amelia.

So there it is. God knows best, right? Right? :)

P.S. The ultrasound is from almost a month ago, so I was about nine weeks then.

SO exciting! Amelia doesn't know how lucky she is to be getting a sibling that will be so close to her! People keep telling me that having kids close together is difficult for the first year, but then it's actually easier after that because they can play together and entertain each other. Sounds good to me!

We are stoked for you guys. If you want this child (or Amelia for that matter) to take sackbut lessons, you know who to call.

Oh - my - heavens! Julie, that is unbelievable! That's pretty close spacing there - I think you may win the prize! Now that you know what a precious baby God created in Amelia, isn't it incredible to think that there will be another one - just as unique and wonderful? Congratulations! I'll be praying that your sickness will be much better this time.
