And Then There Were Three...

Congratulations! It's an it!

Yes, ladies and gents...Chris and I are having a baby! It is due April 21st 2010, and boy is there a lot to do between now and then. Next week we go into the doctor to hear the little heartbeat. We are all sorts of nervous and excited. We won't find out the baby's gender for another 8 weeks, so we'll just have to bite our nails til then. Chris is hoping for a baby girl so he can go on Daddy-Daughter dates as soon as she's born. I, on the other hand, do not have a preference at the moment. Maybe I will eventually, but for now I'm just hoping for the correct number of fingers and toes!

At times it has been a bumpy ride, but every day brings hope for a positive and rewarding future. I'm especially looking forward to the holidays so that I can start teaching the baby early on about what is truly important about this time of year...the FOOD of course!

Okay, so I almost freaked out when you said, "...and boy..." I was like WHAT? She KNOWS ALREADY??? So yeah, a little antsy on my end, I want to know what type of babysitting I am going to have to prep for. Tea Parties or Monster truck showdowns in sand boxes...

Wahoo for Baby Witham! Have you felt sick at all? You're probably almost done with the first trimester, right? We can't wait to see you next month!

Whitney, I love you. I'm so happy for you.

I cannot tell you how happy we all are for you! Diana's news brought a collective "Awwwwww!" from the whole family!

It's a little weird though...were/t you and Diana just having sleepovers and riding the bus to school together???

Congratulations! We are so excited for you two (I guess now it's three :) ) I'm sad we won't be out there to see you guys and the baby...we'll have to come out to Utah sometime so we can meet Baby Witham!
