The Four Seasons

Some of you may already know what this post title means. 

While others will think I am referring to a five star restaurant in New York, or a resort in Missouri...

I can assure you that they are not a reservation for either of the aforementioned. Although they both sound like a good time!

Rather, the title is a declaration, an announcement, a proclamation... that we are indeed expecting our fourth and final!

That's right people... this momma is headed to a delivery room once more this July.

And, we couldn't be more excited!

In fact...

We planned it.

And we are looking very forward to adding to our family one last time.

Our fingers are crossed for a little boy, of course, to even the score and give Nolan a brother as he so eloquently prays for at night. 

Which by the way, if the Chinese gender predictors and our timing is right... we have a really good chance!!

I already mentioned that it might be fun to wait and keep this last one's gender a secret until Dday this time, to which the Hub replied "you can wait, but I am finding out!"

Which means I will inevitably be finding out anyhow because he is NOT good at keeping secrets, besides I would rather find out at the time of the ultrasound instead of by a picture later if he can't wait with me.

Ultrasound or delivery room, it is still a surprise... but,

There is just something about witnessing the baby for the first time with your own eyes. 

And then that big glowing smile between two loves.

And then getting to tell everyone else who waited so long with you...
that I think I missed on something by not waiting with the last three.

And, I have clothes for both genders in the summery season, so I wouldn't have to go get anything or feel like I had to know for that purpose of preparing alone. 

This ain't my first rodeo. But, sadly... I think it is our last.

So I am going to relish in this pregnancy. Take it for all it's worth. And do things like give in to cravings i.e eat the sweeties that I find myself already dabbling in this pregnancy. And go to bed at 9pm on a Friday just simply because I am exhausted!

Official due date July 6th, 2013.
{It's already etched on the new photo calendar I made for Christmas this year, in fact!}

Which will bless us with four children. One in each season.

{Hence, the reason behind the title.}

Anyone else see this as total perfection?

Yeah, I know some of you are thinking we have officially gone off to crazy town...
 but, you know, to each their own.

And that is exactly it.

Our own.

Family.

Of six.

 

 

Until the new year,

 

 

Which by the way, I do hope to update better in 2013 of our everyday adventures.
