Baby Announcement


I’d never imagine that I would congratulate Tom while he was in an airport terminal, but such was the case today. His flight was cancelled and he ended up in Minnesota. He was online, and I was able to tell him that…

Baby # 5 is due (unofficially) October 2nd.

If it’s not a girl, Tab’s going to be pretty upset. I may have to send it back if it’s a “him”.

Thomas kept asking me when I would be taking a nap today (I have been taking naps since I’ve been tired) so that he can play video games while I’m sleeping 😉 I got one of the cool new digital display tests that actually says “Pregnant” if it’s positive (would highly recommend – took two other tests, and the results weren’t clear). So I said to Thomas, “Hey, I found out why mommy has been so tired.” He’s like “Are you sick?” And I said, “No, but this little thing will tell you why.” So he read it. “PR-eg-NAH-nt?” “What is PREGNANT” Yesterday I had taught him and Tab how to use a dictionary. “What do we do when we don’t know what a word means?” “We look it up in the dictionary?” “Yep.” So we looked it up. He read it. “Having a child.” He yells to Tabitha, “Hey Tab! The dictionary says that mom is having a child!”

  1. Congrats!!!!
    It is a blessing to see God adding to your quiver. May this new child (boy or girl) come to the faith earily in life, and may your pregnency remind you of the anticipation of the this baby remind your family to even more greatly anticipate Jesus return (Rom 8)

  2. Congrats again! I’m going to go check my dictionary and see if it says that you are having a child too…cute! 😉

  3. Too cool for words! May you continue to refelect the Son as He increases His gifts to you:
    Psalm 127:3-5a Behold, children are a gift of the LORD. The fruit of the womb is a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, So are the children of one’s youth. How blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them;
    Love, A. Lynn, U. Mark, Doug, Nick, Matt, and Jake
