Growing

This word has been coming up a lot lately. The kids are growing so big and so smart everyday. I can't believe the sentences that are coming out of Vivian's mouth. And the smart questions that Michael has been asking lately. I can't just shove them off anymore, he really wants answers and most of them (when I take the time to answer them) he understands quite well.

Also I've been thinking a lot about growing myself. I've been more interested in reading things or talking to people that have more wisdom then me and just trying to grow my mind and testimony. But I've also begun to grow something else inside of me. Something we've been trying to start for 6 months and now we can officially and proudly say that I am now pregnant for the second time with our third child. I am looking forward to this next chapter of our family.

We told Michael that the baby has to grow inside my belly until it gets too big and then it will come out and we will have another kid in our family. It will start out as a little baby and then it will grow big and strong like Vivian and Michael are growing big and strong. He asks me everyday if the baby is big enough yet. Hopefully he won't be the one to make the pregnancy go by slower. So far though it seems to be a much better pregnancy than the last one. By this time when I was pregnant with Vivian, I was so sick and didn't want food near me for 16 hours every day. But so far I haven't gotten sick and I am LOVING food.

We are all very excited for our family to grow in late November or early December. I'll keep everyone posted on any new developments. I hope everyone is doing well and I would love to hear how you and your family are doing.

Congrats!! And YES, Michael's comments will make it go by slower. This is my third pregnancy that my kids have actually understood what's going on and every time I have an appointment they ask if it is the appointment to get the baby out. With a sigh I reply, "No, not yet. The baby has to get a lot bigger still." Sigh. Don't I wish.:)

I am glad you are doing well. Gardening sounds like fun! I can't wait to have a garden someday. We will be moving to LA in mid Augest.
