Baby K #3!

Yes, that's right, there's a new ticker at the top of this page. We are expecting Baby #3! As we have started telling people our news, there have been a few questions that we have been repeatedly asked, so here are the answers to those FAQs:

Q: Was this planned? Did you want 3 kids?
A: YES!

Q: Wow, they'll all be really close together, won't they?
A: YES! Esther will be 3-1/2 and Peter will be almost 2.

Q: How are you feeling?
A: Very, very, very hungry.

Q: Are you going to find out whether it's a boy or a girl?
A: Nope, we're just hoping for one or the other.

When we told Esther the news, we asked her whether she wanted a brother or a sister. Not surprisingly, she said, "a sister." Then she said, "Maybe there's both in there!" We laughed a little nervously at that thought, but then she reassured us by saying, "No, there's not room for both in there!" Whew!!

One of the most exciting things about this pregnancy is that I get to share it with Casey's twin sister, Renee. She and her husband Jeff are expecting their first child (our first niece/nephew) and we have the same due date, December 4! How's that for a crazy twin connection?! We are so happy for them and think it's very cool that these cousins will be so close in age.
