Adding a new member to our family

Well Matthew and I found out we are expecting another little bundle of joy. As of right now we are guessing the due date to be around Aug 30, which is a great date, because that is John's Birthday, John is Amanda's husband. My friend took some "Expecting Pictures" for me to use for facebook. We are pretty excited. The baby and Elijah will be about 23 months apart.


Matthew and I didn't want another kid, at least not this early until we started thinking in Oct, shortly after Elijah turned one. I was tired of taking birth control, and we were tired of using other means of birth control. So, we thought about it, as I was also reading about the Duggars and we decided that we will allow God to take full reign in that area in our life. So, just to see when I ovulated,  I took tests, and it took only one month for me to get pregnant, if our guessing is right. If it is right, I'm about 5 and a half weeks.

Just like Elijah, we knew he was a boy, and we know this one is a girl. We aren't trying to sound conceited, we just know. We already have her theme picked out, and her name. I will revile her theme, and I will not relieve her name just yet. If I have said her name, then just forget it. ;) 

Her theme is Hottie Hoot's "Owls" Amanda calls them hootie hoots. We love them. Her room will be decorated with owls. Not everything of hers will be owls. We got burnt out on Pooh with Elijah because everything of his was pooh, and we don't want to get burnt out on hootie hoots. We have a few bed sets picked out, the most popular one is green and pink, with owls. I will put up a picture of it.














Please do tell me what you think about this bed set. It comes from several different stores, but from what I've seen it comes with a 10 piece set, it comes with the quilt, the bumper the diaper stacker, the mobile, 3 wall hangings, curtain valence, the fitted sheet and the bed skirt. At Wal-Mart they have it for less then $100, I think Target has it, but it's over $100, along with Babies r Us. If we get this one, we will paint the room a green color, and Elijah's old glider will go perfectly with this set. 

Anyways, let me know your opinions, and now I will post pictures. :)) Enjoy!

These pictures came from Danielle Rose Photography. I think she did an awesome job! I hope everyone is excited for us, if you're not, take your negativity somewhere else. :-) We love it when God blesses us with great gifts, especially babies.
