I need to write my birth story out. But tonight is not the night. I'm holding my baby.

For this child I prayed; 

1 samuel 1:27

And the Lord answered my prayer

born feb 19

20 1/5 in long

getting bigger

I'm so close now, just a couple more weeks!  

It has been such a crazy pregnancy

I'm scared to have this baby alone, but luckily my mom and sister are always on hand.

but back to the cute stuff

Lets talk about Niels

I absolutely fall in love with this kid time and time again. He might have me wrapped around his little finger-( but don't tell my other two )

Niels started school (we love kids village!) ,  had his first picture day, 

he started soccer- go elephants!  and knows how to rock a cardigan

    

and he learned how to ride a two wheeler. well he already knew how because of his run bike, but he learned how to pedal while balancing.

ahhhh life

It keeps getting crazier by the day- life that is, maybe me too.

One day when it's all worked out I'll share, because this blog is a record of my family and even the bad stuff should be recorded.

Luckily for me I have amazing family and friends and a Heavenly Father who loves me.

I feel the prayers and appreciate every single one of them. 

and when the spirit whispers this:

I know it will be

ps to the one/s who left the envelope on my doorstep: 

thank you, I hope one day to be able to do the same for someone.

a family portrait

Niels had to draw a picture of his family for school.  

He came and showed it to me and was so proud that he included the new baby. But if you are good at math you might notice that someone is missing.  So we went through everyone in the picture. The family member not there is the husband.  I asked "where's dad?"  Niels answered, "he's gone." in a matter of fact way.

The husband has been "gone" for a little more than half of Niels' short life.

 And so I guess this is what happens.

and one more makes four

well here's my little something

I'm 21 weeks

I just told the kids what we're having.

I bought the little converse and before they opened it I told them the shoes would be pink for a girl or blue for a boy.  Kail of course grabbed the box, ripped it open and started saying "boy boy boy!" and Lily burst into tears. Poor thing, she wanted a sister so badly (I wanted one for her too).  I was able to calm her down after a little while, now she's not as upset.
And I got it all on video :)

I'm due at the end of February.

but now comes the hard part- the name!

I'm open for suggestions.
