Baby #3!

I posted on facebook a few days ago, so I'm guessing everyone who reads this blog knows, but we found out a few months ago that we're expecting baby #3 next June!  I'm excited, even though for the past ten weeks it's been difficult to feel much but sick.  I'm hoping that will clear out within the next two weeks, though, and we can get back to normal around here.

I've told the girls.  Chaela is pretty excited, but every time we ask Joci if she wants a new baby in the house she says, "Uh-uh baby!"  I think she'll be a great big sister, though.  She loves all the babies she sees at church and she's getting a new cousin about two months before our baby is born, so we'll use him as a sort of practice-run for her (sorry Kristin, ha ha).  Chaela is an old hand at being a big sister now, so I'm not worried about her, she's really a loving and helpful girl.  I will probably keep our bedroom door shut for the first few weeks the baby is home, however, because when we brought Joci home from the hospital, we woke up the next morning to find Chaela in the pack and play with her.  It was both terrifying and amazingly cute.  

We don't have names picked out yet.  I looked a lot at first, but sort of gave up for a while.  We have plenty of time, and now that I'm past the first trimester and S-L-O-W-L-Y starting to feel like a person again I'll probably restart the hunt.  It's such a pain trying to find something Will and I agree on.

I also put up a ticker under Joci's picture on the sidebar.  I know some people think this one is creepy, but I love seeing a representation of what the baby actually looks like.  And I would love to hear name suggestions in the comments; it's always fun to hear what people say!
