Jameston's got a secret...

that we've been keeping for awhile now.
He's going to be a BIG BROTHER come April or May!!
This is how he reacted when we told him the big news :-)
I am about 11 weeks now, and the due date is May 1st (perfect timing considering Brett is a CPA and finishes "busy season" in April)! I am measuring a little ahead of that, so who knows what month our sweet baby will be born in. Kinda fun to not know! We found out the good news on August 19th, and I had a sonogram at almost 9 weeks on September 23rd at which the baby's heart rate was measuring 169 bpm. We heard the heartbeat this past Friday, and it was 170 bpm. BEST SOUND EVER!! What wonderful news! I have been feeling good, just super tired---which I think that mainly has something to do with working full-time and also taking care of a very busy toddler! I am a tad bit more nauseous this time around as compared to when I was pregnant with Jameston, but it is manageable. Right now, I am feeling that we are going to have another BOY (based on how I felt during my first pregnancy. I know, I know, every pregnancy is different, so we'll see)!
When asked if he would like a baby brother or sister, Jameston changes his mind daily :-) I know he will be so happy either way, as will we. We'll find out in the next two months!! Can't wait to learn more about the "bay-beee," as JW says it. He will kiss my tummy and pat it softly. So sweet!

Congratulations! Justin missed prayer request time in class Sunday & said he though someone had announced a pregnancy but wasn't sure who. I'm so glad to hear it was you!
