Baby # 3! Wow!

Yes we are pregnant with baby number 3! We found out the day after Valentine’s Day which worked out since the kids were sick on V-Day we were not able to get out and get Don a gift. So we ventured over to the store the next day and I took a test with Avery. She was so excited, she kept asking if there was a plus sign or not. Then we wrapped it up and gave him his belated V-day gift together. Even though we have been trying for awhile and he pretty much already knew, he was still surprised! My due date is October 20th.

I have been very sick since about week 6 or so. I have pretty much been sleeping or lying in the chair and nothing sounds good to eat. I have not been a good mommy, but I am trying to survive right now. Avery has been so sweet. She prays over me every night. Her prayers go like this...

Avery- "Dear God, please help my mommy while she is sick and let her be herself again because I miss her." (Oh so sad!)

Here is another one that was cute...
Avery- "Dear God, please help the baby to grow in mommy and please let it come out safe and quickly."
Me- What did you say, safe and quick, what did you mean by that? (Trying to get clarification on a 5 year-olds perspective)
Avery- "Well I don't want it to scratch or bite you on the way out!"
Me- "Thank you for being so thoughtful" trying to hold back my laughter as I hug her.
