Baby on Board

I have known for a while but been really resistant to writing that we are expecting our fourth baby in May. I had a suspicion a while back and then we did the test and found out the exciting news. This was really the first baby that we had to "try" for and man does it feel good to finally have this great news. It is so interesting to think that five years ago it was just Anthony and I and now our love and commitment has created four beautiful lives. I went to the doctor for the first time on October 13th. I was a little apprehensive when she could not find babies heart beat and decided to schedule an appointment for two weeks later. Needless to say on October 27th, 2010 I heard the little beans heartbeat for the first time. A slow but steady 130 beats per minute.
Anthony and I both think that this will be our last baby. We had always talked about having four children and I truly feel like I do not have the need to be pregnant ever again. Not that I don't enjoy it but we have been so blessed and I am looking forward to adding this next addition to our family. We get asked all the time if we want a boy but I can honestly say that neither Anthony or I has a preference and we will love and cherish whatever we are given. I am so excited to see the girls welcome another sibling :)
My cup has overflowed!
