Another YES!!!!

For the past few weeks we have had a serious flu running through our home. I am starting to think we should name it...why not? We name hurricanes, don't we?

If I could name this flu, I would name it Flu Pukahontas, because I think that sums it up quite nicely (there are other aspects of this wicked bug that I will not name, but I'm SURE you can imagine).

Not only are we dealing with the flu, but Lucie is teething...she is getting molars on both sides of her mouth, top AND bottom. She is not a happy girl lately at all. Wouldn't it be cool if babies were like gerbils and you could just toss them a piece of bark and let them gnaw on it for hours??

But here, in the middle of all the craziness, is some great news.... WE'RE HAVING ANOTHER BABY!!!

I was kind of hoping to lose some weight before I got pregnant again, but Richard Simmons never showed up at my house to help me. Darn it! I had my sweatband and my shorty shorts all ready, too.

Anyway, at first I felt slightly overwhelmed (not that I wasn't happy, I just kept thinking about the extra weight, the need for a minivan, etc), but I talked to some awesomely supportive friends, and my dear, sweet husband, and I don't feel so overwhelmed anymore. What's that saying, "Where God guides, He provides"? Yup. So I'm just trusting Him. I feel so grateful! Babies are always blessings, and I feel like we're building a little team here, lol.
