Announcement!


Well, Clark and I are going to have another baby! We are so excited! It has been a crazy few months (as I am now entering my second trimester). We found out I was pregnant and then Clark had his shoulder surgery! So that whole month I was SO tired and SO sick, but I still had to practically take care of everyone... even sponge bathe Dave.... which was fun, don't get me wrong!! :) But I tell you, I have never loved or appreciated Dave more than I have these past few months. Even though he was incapacitated and struggling, we was always so sweet to me and caring and wished that he could help more. He's the kinda guy that makes it a joy to serve them... except for that one time when I was trying to keep from throwing up as I was making some dinner, the kids were screaming and grabbing on my legs and Dave was watching some SUPER lame thing on TV (some "funny caught on tape" show or "when animals attack" something) and laughing in that lame, drugged up, stupid way that only guys can, not a care in the world! Yeh, that was a pretty rough moment :)! But it's been REALLY great to have him back again! I feel SO sick with this pregnancy! Which is normal for me so now it's my turn to be the invalid... too bad finals are in two weeks! Dang!

So this is the exciting predicament we find ourselves in. Dave graduates from UNC MBA School May 11th, I will have the baby in the last week of May and then we are moving out west (Dave accepted a great offer in finance)! Dave's new job starts July 9th! It was pretty funny because it took us 5 or 6 months to get pregnant with our other two babies, so we thought we had time... well, this one took 2 weeks- obviously this baby was very anxious to come to our crazy family! My due date is June 1st. We are trying to decide if we should not find out the sex and keep that a mystery! That would be pretty exciting, but I don't know if I could handle it! This ultrasound is of the baby at 9 weeks, so the baby still had a tail!

Congratulations! I remember when you had your first baby, and now a third. We're very happy for your family.

Yah! I'm so excited for you... I can't wait until I have another little niece or nephew! So you might not find out the sex? Let me tell you... when I watch A Baby Story on TLC... whenever the couples decide not to find out the sex and then the baby comes- I can't handle it. I cry so hard because I'm so happy for them! haha! Isn't that ridiculous?! I cry either way... but I cry harder when they don't know the sex of the baby because I can't help but get so into the moment! Anyway, congratulations! I love you! (and I really really love the blanket you made me... so adorable)

I meant the blanket you made my baby. Not me! Oh and I loved lily's drawings on the card. She's so good. I'm excited to see her letter to Santa this year!

congrats, Lenore! I'm sorry we never got to visit when we were in NC...it turns out we only went to chapel hill once, and it was only for about 2 hours. Good luck with a busy year ahead!

Oh my goodness! Congrats! I had no idea...didn't you just have Easton?! Well, I guess he's a toddler. And I think Lily was a baby last time I saw you. So I guess it's been a while! Congrats and good luck in CA...sounds pretty exciting!

CONGRATULATIONS!
It's totally the season for babies, it seems that everyone I know is pregnant. I always thought that if I had one of each kid then I would wait to see what it would be, but I don't know if I could make it to the end. Take Care you guys, that's so exciting.
P.S. Hey I want to move to Californina
