Big Sis...

Yes... you read it right. Zanna is going to be a big sister! CRAZY eh! We broke the news to her today and this is how she reacted... tears streaming down the face. We think she is super excited about it! Ha ha ha... no but really I hope this is not how she will really feel about sharing time with another little one.
We are really excited about welcoming another baby into the world. I am just not totally stoked on the idea of morning sickness and what not... But hey, hopefully it will not last too long. I am 7 and a half weeks along and so far I just want to eat like mad and I am pretty tired. I am starting to feel a little nauseous but nothing too bad. Please bless I don't throw up all of the time like with little Zanna. That hit at 10 weeks with her... so time will tell. My due date is July 31.... heavens I am going to be waddling around full bloom in the heat of the summer once again! Oh and according to the online Chinese Calendar we are having a boy... I hear they are pretty accurate, 50/50 really... ha ha! Once again time will tell.

Congratulations!! We so wanted the chinese calendar to be right...but it was only right 1 out of 3. Either way it is a baby to love!!

Chad and Nicole said...

YAY!!!! Congratulations!! I am so excited for you guys. Oh, and the Chinese calender said that we were having a boy a couple of different times, and look what happened :) Zanna is going to LOVE being a big sister!

Rebecca said...

Well now that it is out there I am having a harder time with this info your baby needs a Roberts best friend. But I still refuse to be pregnant all summer long again. But since we are destined to never have any boys your "boy" haha will be older than my daughter and that is perfect. I hear wedding bells. But like Carly said this could cause some stress on our friendship. Would I shut up already CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I love you and your unborn baby boy.

vanessa said...

Congratulations you guys! That is really exciting. I think Zanna will love being a big sister!

Amber said...

So it's official, eh? Congrats on the new baby coming? it will stink to be prego in the summer time, but you seemed to survive last time. I hope it all goes well, and i hope no nausea comes your way...cause there's nothing worse than morning sickness...or all day sickness. it just puts a damper on your whole day!

Melissa said...

Yea! Wahoo! Yipee! That is great and I am super excited for you. When did we all grow up and start having kids...

Amy said...

Hooray! How exciting. And hey, the online Chinese calendar predicted a boy for us:)
I'm not sure, but I think we might be going up to the cabin some time after Christmas... Hopefully we'll see you there!

Unknown said...

Congrats, I must admit that I had a feeling at Bunco a few weeks ago that you were prego and Becca did confirm the news to me a few days ago. How fun! I hope you don't get sick and all that junk...no fun, but well worth it! Love your family pics by the way too!

Congrats! That is so awesome. Zanna looks like she couldn't be happier. haha And, more importantly, the Chinese Calendar was totally right for me. So, that means a little abby boy is on his way.

Congrats!!! I am so excited for you you guys! That is such a funny picture! Did she really react like that when you told her? Too funny! I got all caught up on your blog. I love your family pictures they are gorgeous! Are you a model? Seriously???

QUESTION:
I found your blog...not even sure how actually..i was on one persons, then another and another and so on, until I ran into yours... I think I know Jathan! are his parents Ray and Millie?? If so, I used to tend him when he was a baby!! he looks just like himself, so I am assuming i am right ;)
I'd LOVE to hear an update on the family.. Megan, Koda, and the others.
congrats on the new arrival-to-be! your little girl is beautiful!
