Excited as Can Be

March 28, 2018 By Shannon This post may contain affiliate links and this site uses cookies. Click here for details.

We’re excited as can be to share that we are expecting baby number three! We will welcome our third little one in September.

My sister, her husband, and their three boys visited us last week. My parents asked us numerous times to capture some pictures of all of the grandkids together. As far as they knew, they had five grandkids, so we were thrilled to capture a picture that showed them ALL of their grandkids!

We’re excited as can be to share that we are expecting baby number three! We will welcome our third little one in September.

It took my parents a while to figure out the point of the picture, but when they finally did we shared lots of laughter and rejoicing.

I’ve been experiencing the typical discomforts of early pregnancy (fatigue, nausea, etc.), but I’m doing well. As many of you know, it’s challenging to be pregnant when you’re keeping up with a couple of little ones! We’re thrilled, though, and are eager to meet our newest blessing. I’d appreciate your prayers for a healthy pregnancy!

As I’ve noted each time I’ve announced a pregnancy, I know some of you have a hard time hearing news of this type. You’re hurting because of a loss or because you struggle with infertility (or both). If this is you, then please allow me to pray for you. Drop a comment below or send me an email (ofthehearth@gmail.com) and I’ll do so.

Thanks for rejoicing with us!

      Thanks! I love the picture! It’s a great one of the cousins, but it’s extra special given it has the picture of the youngest. 🙂
