Surprise! In January of this year, we got the sweetest surprise. We were expecting our fourth child. For as long as we’ve known each other, Marcus has known that "4" was a special number. I’d always thought we would have four kiddos. And each year when I pack up our Christmas decorations, I write a quick note about our year and what I hope for in the year ahead. He probably doesn’t know this, but for the past two Christmases my note was hopeful for another baby. So there’s that. 😉 Here’s a few memories from Anna’s pregnancy and birth…
We’re only three weeks in to getting to know her and we are already wrapped around her long pretty fingers. She is getting all the snuggles and loads of attention from her big brothers and big sister. She’s got the biggest blue (for now at least) eyes and dark hair. We love her facial expressions and see a lot of baby C and E in her face. I am already telling her she’s going to be the one that helps with my empty nest syndrome when the others start to leave the nest one by one (they’re all two years apart) because I will get to keep her an “extra” year.
