Blessed

"I feel rotten" I tell him, hand rubbing my abdomen.
"I'm sorry" he responds.
"I'm not" I say, mischievous twinkle in my eye.
A questioning eyebrow.
A nod and a smile.
Laughter.


Why would I be happy about feeling sick? Because I know it's only a small price to pay for the wonder of life growing within. Yes, I'm expecting! Wee Wagenhoffer#3 should be here sometime in August. Our official expected meeting date is August 14, but I'm guessing Baby may follow in sisters' footsteps and we'll be introduced a little closer to the end of the month. I'm already thinking it's going to be hard to wait that long to hold this little one in my arms.

  1. Hooray! Congrats! So glad to hear this great news...I wonder if you'll keep following our pattern and have a boy! =)
    Love,
    Erin

  2. We'll have to see Erin! Heidi started praying for a boy baby a few days before we told her I was pregnant, but now that she knows she's praying for a sister. Karl keeps telling me it's both (he LOVES to tease me about twins or triplets). Personally, I'd be thrilled either way. If it is a boy, though, you will certainly have to keep me updated about any future children on your part. It's kind of nice to be able to plan a whole year in advance =)

  3. Hoo-RAH!!! Congratulations my dear friend:-)
    Wee Wagonhoffers are the best! I can't wait until August either.

    Molly is going to make me an Auntie in June - I am very much looking forward to sharing motherhood with her!

    All my love, hugs, and prayers,
    Auntie "Lene-a-lene" (coined by Ellie)
