We are down to the final countdown to b-day for baby # 6. Yes- # 6! And no we aren't trying for a boy, we aren't catholic, we aren't done, and we are only a little crazy. If you had asked me 12 years ago if I thought I would be expecting my 6th child in a dozen years, I would have laughed. It is amazing the way the Lord can change us!
So here I am waiting for this new little baby to join us. I am running out of room, running out of energy, and running out of breath! Our 12th anniversary is Saturday, the 18th and that is also the day my mom is flying in... So I am trying to be patient and wait until after Saturday for the baby to come. But we shall see.
We are planning another home birth. This will be our third born at home. It really is an awesome way to welcome a baby into the world. I don't have to deal with noisy machines, strange surroundings, having to find childcare for my children, having to fight to be able to do things as I want, etc. And my girls get to be there to witness the birth of their new little sibling. My oldest has seen 3 of her sisters enter the world. What an amazing experience for a girl. I want my children to know that birth is a natural and beautiful experience, not a painful medical procedure.
So please pray for our baby and it's birth. And watch for updates!
