Well, we've had another few weeks of one event after another! Ella had graduation programs from both of her schools where we got to see her sing and dance, which of course is always a lot of fun. She did so well and we know that she is going to do very well when she starts kindergarten in the fall. We are so proud of her!
Brock is doing well, he is just such a happy little boy! He's been teething recently, so he's had a rough time with that, but we're getting through it. Something else pretty big has surfaced over the past few weeks and it has definitely caught us by surprise! Sometime after the first of the year, we are going to add child number 3 to our family! Yes, if you haven't heard yet, we are pregnant again, due on January 10th.
This puts Brock and our new baby a little less than fifteen months apart. Yikes! Of course, we are very excited, shocked, but excited. Ella could not be happier and is hoping that we get a girl this time. Her reasoning is that she wants the girls to be winning, not the boys. Brock is voting for a little brother though so that he will have a partner in crime. Chad doesn't care what we get, he's just proud of himself, and me? I'm just praying that God will bless me with patience, sanity, a self-cleaning house, and a baby that sleeps through the night from day one!
Of course, this does mean that we'll have to adjust some of our plans a bit, such as moving to a little bit bigger place, and I'll have to take a break from school after this fall semester. We're not quite sure when I'll go back, I'm hoping for fall 2010, but we'll just have to see how it all goes!
I've added of course a new poll to our blog as well as a new section I have called "Ella-isms." These are just funny things that Ella has said to us during different daily activities. She's a hoot and I'm sure she will teach her siblings some great things!

Congratulations! We are excited for you guys!
Wow! Congratulations! I remember you saying you wanted Brock to be potty trained before having another baby; so I guess you'd better get to work! :) That really is exciting. Let me know if there's something I can do to help.
Holy!!!! I'm glad it's you and not me! :o) And the Ella-isms are hilarious! Love it! We need to get together again.....I'm planning a sprinkler party soon. I'll let ya know.
Hi Jenae! I found your blog through Shelene's. Congratulations on your pregnancy! My mom had Dan and Becca 16 months apart ... she can be your sounding board. :) Just be careful what you wish for. Marie slept through the night from day one (eight hours straight, seriously), but she had to be held ALL the time and my milk never came in because she didn't eat often enough at the beginning.
The self-cleaning house, on the other hand, I think we could all use that!
