i’ve got some news…

Crazy #3 is on his/her way!  ETA:  August 2013

to say we are thrilled would be an understatement:

(if you are like me, then the first question that might have popped into your head is, “was it an accident?”  to subdue your curiosity…the answer is a big fat NO!  it was totally a prayer, a dream, and a plan )

hopefully this explains to you my lack of activity on this little ol’ blog lately.

my other pregnancies have been a struggle for me, which explains the large gap between this one and my last.  unfortunately, this one has been no different.  i battle hyperemesis gravidarum…otherwise known as extreme morning sickness, resulting in dehydration, the need for IV fluids, and lots of other fun stuff that i pray none of you ever have to experience.  i’ll be back to tell you more, but for now, just know that although i miss being here, my blog is honestly most days the farthest thing from my mind.  i just need to survive the next 4 months.  today The Boy asked me if moms can ever just give up.  a sweet question from a loving son…but the answer is no…there is no giving up…just battling through.  and then he went on to say, “but mom…its totally worth it, isn’t it?”  totally worth it, my Boy!!  thankfully i’m surrounded by not only the absolute most Rock Star of a Hubs, but generous friends and family who are entering our messy world, packing our boxes, painting our new house, moving us, taking care of my children, cooking our meals…the list could go on and on.  there are no words to describe how grateful and humbled i am

i’ve been looking forward to sharing the news with y’all.  can’t wait to update you on more.

until then,
