Tummy in tumult

I've not been feeling so well lately, which is to be expected. Nausea is my daily companion, and I'm constantly looking for something to eat that will help me feel better. During other pregnancies I ate a lot of sweet foods for it, but this time sweets make me feel worse! I crave salty snacks and veggies. Daniel was in town today, and on his way home he picked up a yummy hamburger and french fries for me! It was just what I "needed". ;o)

Telling the other children

Today Daniel let the children know that we are expecting a new little one. We were all praying together, heads bowed and everyone quiet and reverent, when he began to ask God to bless my womb and the new baby within. I felt the tension of suppressed excitement among them until he finished the prayer...

"Amen."

Then they all burst out with exclamations of joy! Six pairs of eyes shining, asking questions, wondering if we are to have a boy or a girl.

They already love our new little baby.

Due date

I calculated the estimated due date to be December 16th. That's pretty close to Grammy's birthday!

No Test, But...

No doubts, either!

The Beginning...

I've been thinking about babies and baby names all day, it seems. I could be wrong, but I think I know deep in my heart that some little person is already growing within my womb. Are you a little girl? I think so.
