Big News

The same month all 4 of my kids were all in full-time school I found out I was pregnant! Life is so funny sometimes. This wasn't in the plans but we are all so thrilled, after the shock wore off :). It was so fun to tell the kids. We know for sure that this baby is supposed to be here and that she will be very loved. We found out early from a blood test that she is a girl. Everyone was hoping for a girl, except maybe Eli, although he is excited about it too.
We are all hoping for a smooth pregnancy and delivery like with the boys. I've been receiving good care from the high-risk medical group at Stanford.
Joe and I loved this writing sample from Nate's back to school night:
We also loved listening to the girls stay up late talking about baby names the night we told them.
I dealt with sickness for the first few months, which wasn't fun. It was night sickness, more than morning sickness, but it lasted through the day sometimes. I threw up more than with the boys but not as much as with the girls probably. I stopped going to hot yoga because of some of the risks but have been trying to walk or hike almost every day.
We're so excited to meet this baby girl in April!
