I know I haven’t posted in a very, very long time. It used to be so easy to come up with inspiring things to say, but then it got harder! I thought I’d give you an update about a couple of important aspects of our life, though. First of all, we are expecting another baby! I am due on November 7th, now officially less than 2 weeks away. Steve and I have decided that this will be our last baby, so I am enjoying every minute of this pregnancy. I do really love being pregnant, so that isn’t too difficult. As well, happily, I seem to get at least one bonus week, so I don’t expect to be giving birth until at least mid-November.
One day short of 38 weeks on Tuesday, October 23rd, 2012.
We’ve had loads of wonderful blessings in our family this past year. This baby will be the second new family member we welcome this year. In July, our oldest daughter got married to our dear son-in-law. The two of them are making their home at the time near the chef school where our son-in-law is attending.
I am taking this week off of our regular homeschooling routine to prepare for our new baby. I have already sewn up a bunch of little, adorable newborn diapers, which I may post about later on. Today, I will be assembling birth supplies and, hopefully, cleaning!
I was just thinking about you today . . .I was on TBW looking for your “how to back wrap a newborn” post (I’m putting together a new wrapping instructions chart). I hadn’t checked your blog in quite sometime time so I decided to take a gander and what do you know, there was a post! Congrats on your soon-to-arrive blessing and on gaining a son-in-law. Many blessings to you and your family!

Thank you so much for you lovely comment, Judy.
You timed checking my blog very well with my actually posting! Your wrapping instruction chart sounds great. Maybe I’ll even check it out for a refresher course!
christine, that’s wonderful news on both counts!
You look great! Can’t wait to see pictures of your new little one
What exciting news! Funny, I had just noticed earlier this week that it had been a long time since you’d last written; it’s good to hear how things are going for you!
Hi Christine, this is such wonderful news. I am so happy for you, having another little one is so exciting. I hope the baby has arrived and everything is well. I have been thinking about you. With love and best wishes to you and your family, from Michelle.
Thanks so much, Michelle!! I need to do a blog post to announce our baby’s arrival since he is just over 2 weeks. It was another perfect birth with, of course, a perfect baby. I’ll try to write it up in the next couple of days.
Love,
Christine
Congratulations, Christine and family!
