Well we have not updated the blog in almost a year, but we definitely have something worth announcing. This gives us a forum to share with those we care about, yet not have it on Facebook.
We are expecting an additional member to be added to our family as of early November!
Yay, more Wiebes!
There's lots to do in order to prepare for this life-altering experience. The church is very supportive and expresses well-wishes and joy over our news just about every week. We have received a few gifts of maternity clothes passed along and the first few baby items.
It still strikes me as surreal and a bit weird to see a baby bottle or sip cup around the house. "Who left the .... oh wait, that's ours." And to think, soon there will be baby stuff everywhere. Leslie's reading up on the whole process and I have a few reading assignments that I'll need to engage in soon.
Together we are tracking growth on an iPad app that shows us what parts our baby will be developing each week. It's quite fascinating, especially early on, just how intricately humans are put together... and how fast the growth really is. We continue to be grateful for good reports from the Dr. and pray for a safe, healthy mom and baby as the pregnancy comes to fulfillment.
I get so excited every time I hear or think about this new little life. What a year for both of our families! We love and miss you guys.
