And Baby Makes Six

by Monica on November 19, 2009

That’s right….

We’re going to be a family of six now!

I’m nine weeks and one day along with our fourth blessing.

I have been so anxious to share the big news with all of you, but wanted to wait until our ultrasound that was scheduled for today.

The girls are super excited to welcome a new addition to our family. We told them pretty much right away. It is hard to keep anything from those two!

They are facinated with all of it. Just this week they were playing that they had a baby in their tummies just like Mommy does.

MC is already pretty set on having a little sister. She even has a girl name picked out that we are satisfied with.

EA seems to want another brother. She says that the baby needs to be a boy so Will can have his own twin.

I’m feeling pretty good. Thankfully, morning sickness has never been a big issue with me. I’m just pretty exhausted all the time. But that should get better in a few weeks.

We have a lot going on right now with a move back to the United States coming up in less than two weeks and a baby on the way, but God’s timing could not be any more perfect.

I am so thankful for all the blessings He has given our little (big?) family.

I’ll admit, I’ve been a bit suspicious lately, since you’ve been mentioning being tired and needing a nap. I knew being tired would be normal with the move and all, but I’ve been wondering if there might be a new little one one the way! CONGRATULATIONS!!! :)

I’d say it’s getting pretty big! EA’s comment on Will having a “twin” cracks me up! Those kids are the sweetest! I had a good time with them today! Glad I could be here to help you guys out! :) Love you all!

Congrats! We’ll be praying for ease of pregnancy and that you are able to get good rest throughout your moving process.

We had a gal at church just tell us she’s 6 weeks pg. She said she doesn’t normally tell that soon, but her 3.5 yr old was going around telling everyone already. They hadn’t intended to tell their daughter, but she figured it out the first time mommy lost her meal… as it was so similar to the last pg with her 8mo old son. Kids are so intuitive!

What exciting news! I’m so happy for the Andrews Family! Great timing as you begin this new chapter in your lives. I wish you all the best with traveling back to the U.S. and settling in. I hope you leave Baumholder knowing the huge positive impact you made while there. Truly, thank you for all you did to make our Task Force FRG such a success. We really did have a great team with you on board. I hope I get to see you after you get back to the U.S. Call me if you get the chance between all the family that will be so excited to see you.:)
Love,
Amy K.
