deLIGHTful news
I don’t know why I feel so silly finally writing this post. Perhaps it’s because for the last 8 weeks I’ve been trying to figure out how I’ll survive life with 5 little ones under the age of 8… with 3 of those under the age of 3. It still seems unreal to me. But … the time has come to share our DELIGHTFUL news… (well… it will feel more delightful when my all-day nausea stops). Here I am at 13 weeks. Ta-da! The past 7 weeks have been pretty hard ’round here. First Trimester is not my fav. Food is definitely not my friend lately. My family wonders where their mom has gone. Hopefully she’ll show up in full glory (or even half-glory) in a week or two. The kids have been excited about this news. Abe couldn’t contain his excitement and told the first people he saw even though we asked them to wait a bit. He’s sure it’s a boy. Odds in the Smith extended family would prove him right. My hopeful heart would enjoy another girlie for some balance in the fam. Whatever our baby is, we will love him/her. I’ll have a scheduled c-section at 39 weeks or so. Another HUGE adventure… here weeeeeeeee come!
Yay! Congratulations! That is so exciting. I hope you feel better soon.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! That is so exciting. I was sick 7 months out of my pregnancy so I definitely remember food not being my friend. Hope you feel better soon, so excited for you!!
holy smokes…that is CRAZY. I am happy for you. Your kids are so so lucky to have you as their mother. You are amazing Heather. 5???? You CAN DO HARD things!!!
Oh my goodness!!! You really are amazing and will be awesome. Congratulations–it really does seem to me like you just did all of this already. Wow.
Wow!!!! Congratulations!!!
Heather you are such a great mom, you will do amazing with 5 kids all under 8. Remember, WE CAN DO HARD THINGS!! And with the Lord, nothing is impossible! By the way CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Heath, you are so darn cute! What a cute post! And again, I’m SO super happy for you! Hope you’re feeling okay and surviving. I’m thinking about you! LOVES!!!
CONGRATS HEATHER!!!!!!!!!!! Yes, I am sure it will be difficult at time but you will do great! Here is hoping you get another girl! :)
i’m so excited for you!!
sorry you’re not feeling well– i’m not a big fan of first trimester… blah!
don’t worry yourself too much thinking about five… remember, God always gives you what you need when you need it. Reality is never as bad as what you think it could be. (Well, almost never.)
Five will be SO fun!! (And, I’m voting– GIRL. But, if you get a boy we could always trade- i make cute girls.)
How exciting! Congratulations Heather. Anytime you need a nap send Truman and Max over. My kids would love to play with them and have lunch together.
So happy for you Heather. Good luck with five. You are braver than me… but also more patient, talented, lovely and plain better than me!
Congrats Heather. You will do great with 5. Your kids are so helpful. And please don’t hesitate to call if you need anything.
Oh, how exciting! You will be a fabulous mom to all 5 of your children. They are lucky to have you!
