We Have a Basketball Team

Yes, you are reading that correctly. In December we will grow our family by one more. Four kids had been the plan for most of our married life but somehow after number 4 we didn't feel like we were done with our family; so here comes number 5. We do not know the sex of number 5 and will wait until delivery to find out.

I need to go catch up on some sleep just thinking about it. It's always a bit of a shock adding a newborn back into the daily routine. And it's great motivation to get the next oldest kid out of diapers. I'm looking forward to meeting this new baby and wondering if he/she will be our last one. I guess only time will tell.

I don't have much else to say about it right now, I just wanted to get the public announcement out there since I've wanted to mention it before but it wasn't "public internet knowledge" yet. Have a great week.

If you don't already, I'd love if you liked me on Facebook:

Since it isn't April Fool's Day I know you're not tricking me this time!! Congratulations!! I'm so excited for you and your wife and cannot wait to find out if it's a girl or a boy. I'm personally hoping you guys have a girl so your daughter isn't completely out numbered by all of you guys! lol I always wished I would have had another baby but it just wasn't meant to be. I have grandkids to love and spoil now! My son and his wife are giving me the best birthday present ever, baby #2 is due January 16th which is two days after my birthday! When are you guys due? Such happy news thanks for sharing and I can't wait for him or her to get here!

Much love,
Lysa xx

Well, congratulations... this comes at the perfect time too. Did you see where scientists have discovered the miracle pill that helps stay at home parents grow an extra set of arms? Just in time!!!

Forget just another set of arms. I need a clone (or 2).
