Mother's Day Surprise

We're expecting again!! We thought it would be fun to save the announcement for Mother's Day. Since Kyle's brother left on his mission shortly before Ethan was born, we thought it would be fun for him to break the news when he called home on Sunday. It was a fun surprise! His brother should be home a few days before the baby is born.

Jen's family was surprised at the news as well. It was nice that no one really noticed her growing belly, but it probably helps that we live 100 miles away and don't see each other as frequently as we used to.

Baby is due November 10 and is currently the size of a lemon (see picture below). We should find out in about a month whether it is a boy or a girl.

Jen has been feeling pretty good the last few weeks but has had strong cravings for bagels with cream cheese and cocoa puffs (not together. . .yet).

For those of you thinking, "What? Again?" (like Jen's sister's response when she heard the news) Ethan and Baby will be a little over 20 months apart and we always wanted to have our first two close. We are just grateful that Ethan will be in nursery by September. We couldn't be more excited and look forward to going through this process again knowing what we are in for (at least we hope we do).

Oh my word! Congratulations your guys! That's just awesome, and I'm way impressed that you were able to keep it secret for so long. I hope you keep feeling pretty good and that you give into those cravings -- you and the baby deserve it!
