Mommy and Me x4

So, for most of you that still read this, even though I never write, I am sure you have heard that Baby #4 is on the way. Things have been crazy with a capital C. But, I had to take a few minutes to do some updating. We finally decided to tell our little secret when my body decided that instead of being 10 weeks pregnant I should go ahead and look 5 months pregnant. I think my stomach muscles are waving their white flag of surrender. Anyway, I told Matt that I was going to have to start wearing maternity clothes, so we better 'fess up. We started by telling my family. I told Ben to go and tell grandma that mom had a baby in her tummy. I thought he already had come to this conclusion with all the talking that Matt and I had been doing, but apparently I was wrong. He just looks at me and goes "WHAT! HOW DID THAT HAPPEN!". So much for delivering my message. Anyway, he was and remains super excited, steadfast in the belief that we are having a girl and determined to name that girl Lexie. Everytime I bring up a different name he says "Mom, how about we use my name this time and your name next time". I keep trying to explain to him that there won't be a next time (this is it folks), but he insists. Maddie is also pretty excited, and has been especially mothering towards Zach. Maybe she is afraid he is going to get lost in the shuffle. Zach continues to be a man of a baby. At his last check up he weighed in at 33 pounds (that is somewhere in the 150th or so percentile) and was 32 inches (not quite square). His head is finally evening out with his body, so we did not have to do an MRI as the doctor had thought we might.

If that weren't enough, Matt and I are preparing to move to a new house. We pretty much figured with baby #4 on the way, we have pretty much officially outgrown our old house. However, our old house remains on the market, so if anyone knows anyone that is interested....it would certainly take a load off my mind:) Keep checking in, I promise I'm going to keep up with this!
