And then there were 3!

We are excited to announce that we are expecting another baby! We have known for a few weeks, but finally went to the Doctor today and received the confirmation. We heard the heartbeat ( it was 155) and received the first ultrasound pictures. The new baby is due August 28th... We are thrilled! I have been feeling queasy in the mornings, but nothing terrible. The only side effect that has sent me for a loop is my exhaustion. I am SO tired all the time! I guess it is normal to be pregnant with a 2 and 4 year old and be a little tired!
It is amazing how thrilling it was to hear that heartbeat. I have felt so bad and been waiting so long that it was just the most wonderful sound in the world. Even though this is my 3rd baby, the thumping sound was just as fabulous as the first time I ever heard N's and M's. Babies are such a miracle and it immediately brought tears to my eyes and a huge smile to my face!

Daddy and I told N this evening that Mommy had a new baby in her tummy and his face just lit up! The first thing he said was, "A new baby! Just for me?!" He was so excited! This was followed a few seconds later by, "When is the new baby coming?... Tomorrow?"
M doesn't quite understand the whole concept of course. Everytime we tell him there is a baby in Mommy's tummy, he says "NO! Me Baby!" and points to himself. I know he is going to love being a big brother though!

I guess we will just have to wait and see if I will have to change the name of our blog or not!
