Isn't he cute?

We sure think so.

Brady joined our family a couple of weeks ago.

I'm busy adjusting to life as a mother of four.

Thanks for being patient as I attempt to respond to your emails in between feedings.

Happy New Year!

Bet you didn't think I was going to post anything here ever again...

don't worry, I neglected my family's blog too.

I thought I should send out 2011 and welcome 2012 with at least one post.

This past year has been a wonderful one with many blessings for my family.

We're looking forward to the arrival of baby #4 in the next couple of weeks,

so I may go even more MIA in the weeks to come.

I just wanted to send a big thank you out to all who have supported strawberrypearl this year.

I have loved meeting so many new people and have truly appreciated your love and encouragement.

May you all have peace in the new year!!!

School Spirit

Caren asked me to add a little customization to these megaphones for her cheerleaders.

The cheerleaders drew out what they wanted and I attempted to match it.

It was interesting to create the designs on a cone.

At first I wanted to be all mathematical about it,

but in the end I eyeballed it.

Thank goodness for my eyeballs...so much easier than math.

Our New Line Up

This may explain why I was hoping for a girl, but was not holding my breath.

We're excited to welcome another boy to our family!!!

Today is the Day!!!

In the next thirty minutes I will start guzzling down 32 oz. of water

so that I'm all ready for our big ultrasound this afternoon. 

I kind of wish that with each pregnancy you could drink less and less water for the appointment,

seeing as how my bladder seems to be getting smaller and smaller with each pregnancy. 

It feels likes we've waited forever but today we'll know if it's a boy or girl!!!

With three boys already I'm hoping for a girl.  So, we'll see.

Wish us luck!
