Four

We are anticipating the arrival of our fourth child around Valentines Day 2012! I am 9 weeks pregnant and feeling awful. It seems that morning sickness has taken over my life for now. I'm taking prescribed medication for the nausea, but I still can't do much without feeling extremely ill. Fortunately, I have a very understanding and helpful husband as well as a helpful 7 year old to pitch in every morning while I attempt to detach myself from the bed. So if you haven't heard from me for a while, or are concerned I never leave the house, that is why. I wish I could make it to volleyball in the morning, but I can't make it happen anymore. Cross your fingers that I feel better in the coming weeks and if you so happen to drop by, leave your judgments at home and disregard my disaster of a home.
I don't have a picture of our little bean to show yet, but as soon as I do, I will post it first thing. The kids are very excited to have another brother or sister. Lily says "I wanna sister" and Jake says "I want a boy baby because I don't like girl babies" and throws out things like "peaches" as possible names for our little one. Tyler speculates on the possible drawbacks to one or the other. For example he said "I think that It wouldn't be good to have a girl baby because Lily would be mean to her and she would get beat up by the boys." he also said "But if we have a boy, then he can wrestle with us and he will be tough." He also thinks that it would be nice to have two boys and two girls. I happen to agree with this assessment.

Congratulations! That is so exciting! I can't wait to find out what it is. Sorry you are so sick. That is the worst! I took things for the nausea as well but then they just seem to make you drowsy. Good luck!

Yay! Congratulations! Ok, so I obviously haven't checked blogs for a while and I missed so many of your posts...including this one until now! I'm sorry you aren't feeling great. Hope that passes soon. I know how you're feeling b/c we're expecting as well, due mid January.

Lily's 4th of July hair is AWESOME! Seriously, I've liked the other styles you've done, but that one is amazing!

And you're trip to Cali and such looks like lots of fun as well. Anyway, just wanted to say congrats again and I promise to (try to) check blogs more often now that I'm no longer sicky sick.
