It's official! We are having baby number three sometime in March! I think both Theresa and I are still very excited but also still in shock just a little bit. Today at church several people gave me a hard time because we had recently talked about not having another baby so soon. On my way home from our mission trip last Saturday, I talked to one of my youth parents and said that we were very close to being 100% debt free and were still considering having a third child. Theresa and I had decided that we wanted one more, but we were not expecting to get pregnant right now. Apparently God had other plans! So, this youth parent reminded me of what I had said just a week ago and I had to laugh. That is because those were my plans and obviously not the plans of God. He definitely has a sense of humor. We really don't know any details yet, expect possibly around March 19th for a due date. As soon as we know more, one of us will post that information.
It was fun yesterday getting to tell everyone the news. We were going to my parents' house and we wanted to let Emily tell them. So, we told her as we were pulling into the driveway and she immediately told my mom, dad, and sister. I don't think they knew what to think when she first said it. Emily has made it very clear before that she would like us to have more sisters and definitely a brother. This was a very good surprise because today is my mom's birthday.
God always keeps us on our toes and we trust in His timing. Maybe this time He will give us a boy. We shall see!
