One Last Bun

We've told most of you already; but if you haven't heard, Stacey is pregnant again! We're all very excited.

Hannah, of course, wants a baby sister and Ben wants a baby brother. I'm not sure if those wishes will change when they realize one of them will be sharing a room. We haven't decided yet if we're going to find out the gender at the 20 week ultrasound. We did find out this week that there is just one in there.



The baby is upside down with the yolk sac to the right. We signed up for weekly emails from babycenter to keep track of how he's growing (because, yes, it is just as exciting the third time). You can use the big picture as a reference to figure out what the gray blobs are in the ultrasound picture. Right now we're at 9 weeks making the due date February 22, 2009 - an early birthday present for Hannah.

We also found out that the baby won't be delivered by the same doctor nor at the same hospital as Hannah and Ben. The old OB/GYN is now just a GYN. Stacey was referred to an OB that delivers at the other big hospital downtown. We've heard good things from friends who've had their baby's there; so, we're not too worried about it.

As the title of this post suggests, we're planning for this to be the youngest member of the family. Some people claim we're crazy for having this many while others say we make such cute kids that stopping now would be a trajedy. Who knows if our plans will change, but for now we're just looking forward to having one more healthy, beautiful baby.

This many? Nah, I know a little bit about BIG families, and I think they are great.
Congratulations to you, and I'll be following the progress!

Love,
