Our next adventure!

Well, our family of four is getting ready to become a family of five!  We are getting ready to welcome baby girl into our little family!  Vivian Ruth’s official due date is 5/13/18 (which happens to be Mother’s Day!) and we are in the thick of nesting!  This pregnancy has been a night and day different experience than with the twins.  I am so grateful that I’ve been able to continue working and parenting and mostly doing normal life.  It’s been a season of gratefulness and anticipation.  I feel like Scott and I aren’t just expecting a baby, our FAMILY is expecting a baby.  Luke and Amelia are so excited.  They frequently tell me things like, “Mom, you said there were 10 kids at the birthday party but you forgot Vivi!  There were 11 kids there!”  They read to her and sing to her and ask all sorts of questions about her.  It’s been a gift to prepare for her along with our big kids.  

I’m hoping to post more regularly to record her growth and milestones.  Since Luke and Amelia still don’t have finished baby books (oops!), I’m guessing the third born won’t either!  The blog has been a great way to remember the little daily moments we treasure with them.  I’m hoping to get some of Viv’s special moments recorded too!

We can’t wait to meet you, baby girl!
