Time Flies

My how time flies when you have a baby...three months after Emma was born we were delighted with a surprise...we were expecting! Although not planned, we were happy nonetheless. As Keith said, "It was meant to be!" After the initial shock, we had fun with the new possibilities. Emma and the new baby would be about a year apart, they would always have someone close in age to play with. Would it be a boy? Would it be a girl? now that we had a girl, I was warmed to the idea of having another one.

Fast forward 5 months, and we find out that it is....A BOY! The look on Keith's face when they pointed it out on the ultrasound was priceless. He was grinning from ear to ear, and a new sense of pride emitted from him. That moment when you tell a daddy that he's having a son.

Keith and Emma are birds of a feather. She has his sense of adventure and fearlessness, mixed with my spunk and sunshine. Now as we are reaching the last few weeks of pregnancy, I know she is going to have fun with her brother when he arrives. Even now, she kisses my stomach and lays against it. She is not even a year old yet and she is in tune with what is going on. I have no doubt she will boss her brother, but love him infinitely, as well.
