ANNOUNCEMENT!!

The Bakers' have a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT to make. We will have a new little Baker sometime in the next year!!! And this time the new addition will NOT have four legs! YES, we are pregnant!! We actually took the test last week but wanted to wait until we could see the doctor. We went to the doctor this morning & had our first sonogram & we got it confirmed. That said....I am only five weeks along so you can't actually see the baby inside the sac yet so....I am still a little nervous about the whole thing....I don't FEEL pregnant since I can't see it but I feel SO TIRED so I must be:)! They will draw blood again on Wednesday to make sure things are progressing properly & do another sonagram in two weeks so we can SEE the baby. That will make me feel much better. We didn't find out about Bish until I was already 12 weeks so this is a whole new experience. We are all very excited!!! I'll do like Lashawn & answer the frequently asked questions:

We are probably looking at a June baby...around the 2oth. Because I will have to have another c-section (natural birth is not an option for me) then we will schedule it around that time.

No, we were not trying...we had talked & prayed about it but were still on the fence...Brad was considering a new job possiblity but that will have to wait for a few months now:)! We prayed that God would allow us another baby if it was His will & if not we were happy either way but we are VERY excited to have it this way!!

Yes, Bishop is excited. He decided about a month ago that he wanted a little baby of his own & that we should just go get one at the store. We are trying to get him to understnad that you don't buy them at the store & that Mommy will have one. He is slowly catching on & he is about as excited as a 3 year old can be:)!

Yes, we will find out what we are having if we are able to....I would love the surprise but I must plan big things like this so we will find out the sex. I am not a huge fan of green & yellow:)! Lots of people are hoping for a girl. Though we will be happy with either...we are thinking blue. I know that is crazy...but I love my little boy...he is so much fun!!

Yes, we welcome name suggestions...we are pretty sure what we want to name a boy but have NEVER had a good girl name so please feel free to help!

No, I haven't been very sick....a little nausea but not bad. I never got really sick with Bish either so her's hoping that continues. I have been VERY tired. I crawl into bed at night....Brad has been a real trooper though so we are coping:)!!

Yes, we have decided that the study will be made into a nursery. We will be moving the computer & trains out & all sorts of things baby in. That will make our guest room VERY crowded but we will still welcome guests ANYTIME (just be prepared for clutter:)!

Things are going well right now. Brad is busy with work & school. I am busy with work, Bishop, & amazement:)!! I know that God has an amazing plan for us & that this baby fits into His plan perfectly. Please pray for us as we begin to prepare for this new little one & as we wait to see how things are going & they progress!!! I am usually a worrier about these kinds of thing but I am trying to leave it up to God...it is all His anyways:)!!

So...love & smiles to everyone!!!

I must admit that I am one that is thinking pink! We have too much testosterone running around already, Shana!! Congrats to both of you and to Bishop. He will be a fun big brother. I am so happy for you but I must admit I am green with envy. Terry says no more babies, EVER! (pout) "But, honey, I finally quit smoking...can't we talk about it now?" he he!

YAY I can unzip my lips now. You should be proud, I only told my mom. :-) I can't believe we are pregnant AGAIN together. :-)

Oh my gosh!! And you said you only wanted one. Let me tell you it is CRAZY with two. But more fun! I am hoping pink, but I have to be honest boys seem much easier so far. I posted a family pic on my blog. (I know, I know, it's been awhile)
