What the girls think about Baby #4

The girls are just incredibly excited about Baby #4!  They cannot stop talking about it, praying about the baby and discussing names and gender preferences.  I am convinced this will be another girl, but the girls really want another boy.  Here is their conversation:
G - What do you hope we have?
H - A boy.
G - Me too.
H - Why do you want another brother?
G- Because then if we ever get invited to a dance party we all have a dance partner....Mommy can dance with Daddy, you can dance with the Professor and I will dance with the baby because he may be too heavy for you to lift, but we can trade if you want to.
Yep.  Sometimes life in our house IS that sweet.

In Case You Were Left Confused

Or just are not real observant....LOL!





This picture has my husband, myself, the Genius, the Hippie, the Professor AND baby #4 there at the end!  Yep.  We are expecting blessing #4 in April.  We are all extremely excited and cannot wait to meeting this new little one.  I am feeling pretty good.  Quite tired and do have some all day yuckies that come and go, but really nothing to complain about.  The reactions have been pouring in and are fun to hear.   The Hippie wants to feel the baby kick and the Genius wants to go shopping.  Everyone is excited to find out...boy or girl???  I would like to just wait and be surprised but I am afraid I have been out voted so we should be finding out the gender later this year!!!!

Where has the time gone?

My husband and I have now been married for 10 years.  10 years!  We are going away for a belated getaway this weekend.  We could not be more excited!  So forgive the lapse in blogging while we are away enjoying each other for a very special weekend celebration!

First Haircut!

The Professor does not have a ton of hair, but he had a lot of lightweight, fluffy hair.  So when the girls were getting their back-to-school cuts, I asked them to do his first cut too.  He was already cute but now his new do really shows off his big brown eyes!

Latest Art Work

The Hippie is entering a new painting into the county fair.  She wanted to paint a picture of her sister jumping rope.  Here is the photo she wanted to use.





But she told her art teacher she wanted to do an abstract of it.  It took her a little over an hour to create this painting.  I am beyond impressed!  I think she is very talented.  What do you think?
