We Have Exciting News!

Yes… it’s true! We are expecting Baby #5, lovingly referred to as Baby Bean from here on out on Mustard Seed Adventures! J is working on a video to share the kids’ reactions. I’m happy to say, everyone is now excited (you’ll notice a little apprehension from Bubby when the video is published). Bean is due in November of this year and we are anxiously anticipating finding out the gender in a few weeks!

How far along? 14 weeks

Total weight gain/loss: Honestly have no idea…

Maternity clothes? Yes, mainly maternity jeans/shorts. I can still wear most of my tops and dresses, but I have bought some for in a few weeks when they won’t fit anymore!

Stretch marks? Same old ones I’ve had since Boogie!

Sleep: Actually been sleeping very well, this is new for me since all of our older children were younger during my other pregnancies. Our youngest, Bear, is 3 and a pretty decent sleeper!

Best moment this week: Bear is really into asking about the baby and smooching the baby. He wants to change it’s diapers and share his Jeeps with him/her!

Movement: None yet, still a little early for that, but hopefully soon!

Food cravings: Berries, oranges, tacos and ice cold water.

Gender: Don’t know yet!

Labor signs: None.

Belly button in or out? In

Wedding rings on or off? On, they fit perfectly as of right now. 

What I miss: Not feeling sick… the nausea with this one is kicking my butt. 

What am I looking forward too: Snuggling a sweet baby… it’s been too long!

Weekly Wisdom: Breathe. Things are crazy right now, life is different and normal has gone out the window… but one thing that remains steadfast is our Father. Rely and lean on Him!

Milestones: Baby Bean is the size of a pear and can now taste the food I eat… think he/she will like tacos someday?!
