Last night.



"Come on kids, time for family prayer!"
(everybody comes and kneels)

Chris: "Mom has something to tell you."
Me: (big grin) "I have a baby in my tummy!"
Taylor: "Are you serious! Do you really?!"
Peyton: "I wanna see!"
Ellie: "Is it a girl?"
Preston: "No it's a boy!"
Me: "We don't know what it is yet."
Taylor: "If it's a girl, what are you going to name her?"
Me: "I don't know."
Ellie: "Name her Katelyn!"
Taylor: "I thought you liked Kody?"
Me: "I do, but I don't know anymore."
Taylor: "What if it's a boy?"
Preston: "Name him Preston!" (big laugh)
Chris: "Preston number 2!"
Me: "We don't know yet. Guess when we found out?"
Taylor: "When?"
Me: "The day before dad and I went to Disneyland!"
Taylor: "Are you serious?! You kept it a secret that long?!"
Me: "Yes, we wanted to wait until the time felt right. And guess what else? The baby is due 5 days after Kim's baby!" (Sept. 14th)

It was a fun conversation! Our kids were so cute and excited. We are so happy and can't wait to meet our baby #5!!!

I am so glad that I don't have to keep this a secret anymore. I hope we have the same sex so that they can have the love hate relationship that our girls have. Hopefully this time mine is picking on your.
