We are happy to announce that another Giles family member is on the way. Ultrasounds have shown a healthy start to this little one's 9 month journey. The bundle of love (and work) will join our family in September. Don't ask me how I will survive a hot Texas Summer--plenty of shaved ice and ice cream! Plans for a lengthy vacation to Utah is in the works. The heat can't be as miserable as the morning sickness. I can't believe how tired I am especially at night. The fatigue mixed with nausea makes for an interesting combination when trying to care for a family of 5 and a Primary. I feel support and compassion from Brian and the children, what a blessing!
Because this is the fourth pregnancy my growing abdomen has done all the announcing. I have already climbed the ladder to the attic, dusted off the maternity clothes boxes and somewhat excitedly washed and ironed the maternity pants.
This Spring will be an eventful one, especially for our little Sarah...potty training, teaching her to sleep in a bed, reading books to her about how life will dramatically change when she must share Mama's attention, and trying to convince her that there really is a baby in my tummy. Last night she patted my chest and said, "BABY!" I replied, "No, not there Sarah, down here, inside."
It is always a special moment to share such news with family and friends. We love you!
