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.

Thanks for giving me a shout out as the "some too scared to cal me directly." Just so you know I have not noticed anything different--or course I do spend the majority of my days in my own world. I think you still look great! And we are very excited for you.
