A new addition!
Posted by Mari Jo
As many of you already know, we are expecting a new addition to our family. Coming in August! We are beyond thrilled, and cannot WAIT to hold this new baby in our arms. Aubrey Ann is tickled pink to be a big sister, and insists that she is going to have a baby brother. She spends her days asking me lots of random questions about the baby and how the baby is going to act. “Will the baby eat his lunch?” “Do babies throw their toys?” etc etc. She is already telling me that she is going to help feed and change the baby. And she says she would be happy to share her toys. So she says…
This pregnancy is truly a miracle. It took us a long time to conceive, but we are confident that God granted us this incredible blessing in His timing. How could we want anything more than that?
If you have time today, please say a prayer for us and our family. Pray that God gives us the wisdom to raise another child in His way, that we would go through the change of adding a new family member with ease, that we would be given a double portion of patience, and love to shower upon this new beautiful child.
Brandon and Aubrey Ann are both convinced this is a boy. I am still on the fence, but Brandon guessed right with Aubrey Ann, so if he is right, he must have some sort of extra baby-sense. We would be thrilled with a boy or a girl, so really we are just excited to find out whether it’s going to be team pink or blue!
Thank you to all of our family and friends who prayed non-stop for this baby to be conceived. Now I just ask that you don’t stop praying, keep it going!
Baby squirt (as AA likes to call you), I cannot even express how excited we are to have you. Thank you God that I get to experience the wonderful miracle of pregnancy and child birth another time.
