By Way Of Explanation....

In case you haven't heard.... YES! I AM PREGGERS!!! Does that explain a lot?!?! It should because i have been M.I.A. for almost two months now and I feel like an explanation is in order. I wanted to wait to publish this news until after my first doctor's appt. however; my appt. keeps getting pushed back for reasons that may only be known to health care professionals...AUGH!!

Well, Paul and I are thrilled to be adding another member to our little family! I am not thrilled about 9 months of discomfort and "growth", but the benefits certainly outweigh the costs.

Our due date is DECEMBER 19th.... but I am hoping for a Thanksgiving Baby! Elizabeth was 20 days early so I am crossing my fingers that this little one will follow suit.

We are otherwise busy as normal! Elizabeth is a darling handful. She is becoming quite the conversationalist and chats with us ALL DAY LONG! It is so funny and she gets so frustrated when we cannot understand what she is asking. She has also become quite a loving and tender child. She gives hugs and kisses to everyone including the dogs. Yesterday she laid on the floor next to her baby, tenderly wrapped her arms around her, and rubbed her belly. It was so sweet! I am hoping that she will feel the same way about a sibling!

Elizabeth is getting much taller also. I swear every time I get her up in the morning she has outgrown her PJs. Her hair is getting longer, and she really looks like a little person. I will post pictures soon!
