We broke the news to the kids a few days ago that a new baby will be joining our family in September. I showed them the picture of the ultrasound and asked if they could tell what it was. They both looked very confused, and so I had Jordan read the word written in the corner of the picture. It took him a few minutes of quietly sounding it out, until out the word came..."baby." He said it very quietly and the kids both looked at me with shocked look on their faces...like does this mean what I think it means. I told them there was a baby in my tummy and they both started laughing and cheering. We looked through the calendar to see all the days that had to pass before the baby was ready to come out. It must have made an impression because the next day Megan's preschool teacher told me that after Megan had excitedly told her the news that a baby was in her Mommy's tummy, her teacher asked her, "Well, when is the baby coming?" Megan replied, "Well, I'm not really sure, but I think it's going to take a very long time. We have to go through the whole entire calendar first!" Let the long wait begin.....
