Holy cow an entry....well just a quicky. My clan keeps me quite busy. Elijah is now 7 and in the 1st grade and doing exceedingly. Ellie is 5 and can't wait to start kindergarten in the fall. Claire, 3, is just as funny and precocious as ever. Emma is 19 months and just a sweet little gem. Then something strange happened, I found out that we are having another baby!!! EEEEEK was my first thought. I was still nursing Emma and was not ready for baby #5!! It took a loooong time to adjust to the thought and it was slowly growing on me and then we had the US and found out that we will be completing our family with a sweet little boy. Caden Joseph will be joining us sometime in late August to mid September!! I was very excited when we found out. My boys....my bookends. My DH being the witty man he is says that us girls outnumber them but they have us surrounded! Elijah is thrilled and can't wait to have a brother finally!
This pregnancy is doing me in and it takes everything I have physically to make it to this point in the day without collapsing. I have about 7 more weeks of "normalcy" and at that point I am supposed to begin moderate bedrest...yeah right! Moderate bedrest with 4 kiddos is a joke. Anyway, I have mustered as much energy as I can this evening... off to my couch I go. G'night!
