some news...

I think most of you already know this, but I've been really bad about sending out update emails, so I really don't know if the word has spread. We are going to become 5 in June. That's right! We got a bun in the oven. I know, it's still hard for us to believe, too. We are excited to meet this new little one when the time comes...but for now, I've got my hands full. GOOD TIMES!

For those of you who like details, the due date is June 2 and we found out around our birthdays (happy 30th birthday to us). Heavy D and this one will be 18 months apart and G money will be almost 3 1/2 when the baby comes. It's going to be FUN! :) (Mom, go ahead and block out the end of May until mid June when Nancy's baby arrives. I'm gonna need you...)

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU!!! That is exciting news!! I think having three really close is WONDERFUL!! And yes, exhausting. But it is worth it! I will root for another boy, because I am partial to them! Take care of yourself and try to rest now!! Hugs from Florida! Love, Amy, Chris and our three LITTLE boys!

Congrats! It looks like there's a baby boom on around here! Christmas next year is going to be some more of an event (at least our house with K&K's 3 and our 3)!! I hope everything is going well for you!

oh, i'm so excited about this! i'll have to share with mikie. i have NO DOUBT that you can do it. if i could do it for 4 months without mike, you can do it. of course, i only had TWO that were 17 mo's apart, and i had the high schooler from church that came and helped.... i recommend finding someone who can help you clean and babysit a few times a week until you get your feet on the ground.

and i have to disagree with amy and hope that you get a GIRL!!!! :)

Of course us Baker's of Greer are super excited - especially since Nancy is due in October, too. Now if we could only have a couple of grand DAUGHTERS. Hint, hint. Wouldn't that be fun for them, though - they'd be so close in age - sort of like Daniel and Olice. Phew. But you know we'll be praying most of all for good health again - God has truly blessed, hasn't He?

So excited for your growing family! I love seeing the pictures of your boys. I will be praying for the 5 of you. Much love, Sarah H.

not sure why my mom thinks my baby and nancy's baby are coming in October. That is a LONG time to be pregnant, and I'm just not going to do it. June is just fine with me. Maybe she had too much eggnog...
