News from S

S has some fun news that he wants to share with you so this is from his point of view...

I learned a new word that my Mommy and Daddy have been saying a lot lately..."baby." They keep pointing to Mommy's tummy and saying "baby." I think a "baby" must be that little hole that I like to touch on her tummy that makes her giggle, but they have been showing me a black and white picture too that looks kind of funny and saying "baby." And when we watch my Praisebaby video, Mommy points to these little people who just lay down on blankets and tells me they are "babies." A few weeks ago, they took pictures of me with this shirt on...


Mommy said something today about 15 weeks, whatever that means, and they said I will be a big brother in July. I guess I have to share my toys now...I think I have enough for me and the "baby." Mommy and Daddy say they are going to have their hands full. :)

Congratulations. What exciting news. I had no idea you were pregnant. What a blessing to be preparing for another little one this July. I cannot wait to find out if S will be sharing with a brother or sister!!

Thinking of you and looking forward to talking by phone soon!

Oh wow! Congratulations, what a fun way to tell us, too!

I'm so excited for you!!!

p.s. I thought the same thing about Cash being nearly as big as S when I read your post the other day! Cash is the same size Daria was when she came home at 11 months. It took her forever to get to 20 pounds! She and S seem to have many similarities weight and foodwise.

I had to remove my comment because it did not make any sense...what it was supposed to say was, CONGRATS! What a wonderful thing for S. to get to experience! SO happy for you.

Kim Abraham - Mom to the Fabulous Five! said...

Wow! That is really exciting news! I loved the cute little shirt S is wearing. One of our boys has a July birthday and that is the BEST month for parties! Congrats!!!!

Rebecca said...

Delurking to say congrats! I found your blog right around when you got "the call", then we got ours...our Russia trips pretty much were at the same time. I've loved reading updates about S, and wanted to say congratulations on the little one on the way!

Okay... now I feel terrible that I didn't know this last weekend. Congratulations! I am very excited for you! Congratulations... so much fun! Are you sick of all the comments yet about how "this always happens when someone adopts? You relax and then it happens." Ugh, my skin crawls even writing that... people just don't understand the pain of infertility when they say things like that. There are PLENTY of people who adopt 10 kids and never get pregnant!

Sira said...

Ok lady- time for an update!!!

Janine said...

Congratulations!! What wonderful news! I'm so happy for you. What a great big brother S will be. :)

Allison said...

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Such exciting news!
I bet S. is going to be such a wonderful big brother.

Craig and Phyllis said...

My, I miss reading some blogs for a bit and look what happens! Congratulations! Hope you are feeling well (I was known as the "porcelain queen" in all of my pregnancies for the whole duration)! I think having S announce it was so sweet.
