We have some good news to share!  

FAQ:  :)

How far along are you?  20 weeks - half way mark!

When's your due date?  Technically it's Nov. 3, but since we have big babies, I'll get induced a week early unless she comes before then (Andrew came 2 weeks early) so I told the kids it will definitely be before Halloween.

How excited is Rachel?  SO SO SO excited!  She really wanted a sister but said that if it was a brother she would not throw a fit ("get what you get and don't throw a fit")

Does Andrew get it?  Sort of.  He points to my tummy and tells me baby, which is very sweet.  But he is also lifting up his shirt a lot and saying baby, so I don't know.  For now, he doesn't love to have me hold other babies, but this is normal for any child and he'll adjust to it when she gets here.  He'll be a great big brother.  They'll be just over two years apart.

Are you ready for 3 kids?  As ready as we'll ever be - we are getting ready for complete chaos, and we're excited to meet her!

Do you have any names?  We're down to two names we really like.  We'll let you know when we know.

How is it to be pregnant during the AZ summer?  Not very fun.

How are you feeling?  Fine.  My pregnancies are pretty easy and slick.  No morning sickness as long as  I eat constantly, so I'll take early weight gain over morning sickness any day.  The worst part has been this sprained ankle - my tummy already draws enough attention, now I have an ankle brace and a limp, plus it's hot, so people just look at me and feel bad.  But we're really doing A-OK.

Did you know it was going to be a girl?  I didn't, but Brandon was pretty sure.  I am thrilled that Rachel will have a sister since I come from a family of all brothers.  Either way, we would have been so happy.  We're so grateful she's doing good and is healthy.
