Three

 Where there once was 2, 4, 8, and 40 there will now be 3, 5, 10 and 50! Confused? Maybe this will help...

 

Baby #3 is due August 30th!

 About 6 months after Tate was born Gabe and I agreed that our family just didn't feel complete. Several months ago we decided it was time to start trying for baby #3. Since we practice NFP, and were able to easily conceive both Connor & Tate we assumed that the third would be just as easy- Not so fast, my friend!

It took several months of trying only to end up frustrated and disappointed. Finally the week before Christmas we found out there would be a third child in our house! We were thrilled beyond words and decided to keep the pregnancy a secret until we went to the doctor and confirmed that everything was healthy and viable. The ultrasound above shows that one, healthy baby growing away.

Seeing as I've been as miserably sick as I was with numbers 1 & 2, we're taking it as a good sign.

We told the kids by sending them on a scavenger hunt throughout the house. They were shocked and excited when they got the final envelope revealing a letter and ultrasound picture saying "Here's a picture of your new brother or sister in Mommy's belly".

Connor was shocked when he read it!

Tate was showing us there was not a baby in his belly.

Jumping up and down "We're going to be big brothers!"
