Enough Sneakiness

So I think I confused people more than anything yesterday as I tried an experiment.

I wanted to see how fast news would travel and if it would be predominantly people finding out our news via viewing the blog; or, people finding out our news via someone who viewed the blog spreading it by phone. Turns out, it was people viewing the blog, calling other people to find out if they knew what in the world was going on. Some too scared to call me directly, some not so scared, calling to demand answers!

All because I put that little widget with the floating baby in the corner of my blog.

Anyway....

To clear things up:

After many, many, many, many prayers and much, much, much consideration...

We are expecting baby number 5.
Due the end of November.
Yes, I feel gross. Yes, all day.
Yes, we are really, really excited!
If it is possible, my doctor is even more excited.
At least, it sure seemed that way when I went in yesterday.

I am actually announcing earlier than I had planned because people were starting to wonder what was wrong with me. Some thinking I had fallen into a deep depression. And I thought I was being a stellar actor! Apparently, no matter how happy and normal I thought I was acting, some people didn't see it as happy and normal.

So if you drive by and see me lying on the grass, attempting to do yard work from a prone position, you now know why.

Ever Wonder

why you check this blog when it seems like I rarely update it?

Me too. I even check it to see if anybody has updated it.

Hit Hard

Cisco Systems, in an effort to avoid layoffs, cut back on their facilities. Employees are coping the best they can.

You will notice the extra chair. His assigned "desk buddy" was at lunch when this picture was taken.
