And Baby Makes...FOUR!

It is finally time to share our exciting news with all of you!! Addison will become a big sister this August. (I think it's August anyway) :) I will be going to the doctor on January 7th and I believe that she will send me for a trans-vaginal sonogram and we will be able to get a more acurate due date. Since this pregnancy was not planned, I of course, did not keep records. I did get an "over-the-belly" sonogram though. At least that is what I call it, I do not know the proper medical term. A friend of mine from highschool does sonograms at the hospital and she scanned me..on my birthday! What a great birthday present :) She measured that I was 6 weeks and 3 days along at that point...so that would put me at 7 weeks and 4 days today! She was surprised to see a heartbeat was detected this early with this type of sono..but there it was!
We are definatly excited about adding to our family but also a little nervous. If any of you know how busy Addison already is, the thought of adding another right now is exhausting! But God has a divine plan and we are truly blessed!
Chris and I had trouble getting pregnant with Addison and had to use Clomid, a fertility drug, to concieve. So, you can imagine our surprise to find out that we were expecting again! AND, it is around the same time that I was due with Addison. So, the birthdays will be very close. I remember telling everyone at Christmas that we were expecting with Addison..and we repeated history!
So..that's what's new at the Barber house! Hope you all had a Merry Christmas!
