We wanted to wait and share the news with the kids after we had our 8week ultrasound, since I have had three miscarriages in the past. So on Friday after week saw and heard the beautiful heartbeat of our baby we decided it was time to share. We really wanted them to be some of the first people to know and we definitely wanted them finding out from us and not someone else. Well before we could even tell them Kaitlin looked at me and said "Are you p, p, pregnant?!?!" My word she's a smart cookie!
The proud big bro and sis were immediately excited and very protective over Mommy and the baby against each other! And then Daddy mentioned that he knows it's going to be a boy and then the trouble began! Kaitlin melted down. She wants a baby sister so much. (She's been saying it since I was pregnant with Malachi.) So of course this had Daddy and Malachi teasing Kaitlin saying it's a boy, but Grandma Anderson and Mommy quickly jumped in and said that we won't know if it's a girl or boy until Mommy's at least 20weeks. We immediately worked with her on understanding that the most important thing is we pray for a healthy baby. So for Kaitlin I not only pray for a healthy baby, but a baby sister. (Even though Levi may be right in saying she doesn't know what she's asking for.)
And yes Zeke was there, but like any two year old he had no idea what this meant. (Well at least I thought he didn't but for the last two days he keeps pulling up my shirt and pointing at my belly....so maybe a little.)
