I am pleased to announce that Ben and I are expecting our 3rd child mid February!
We are so excited about this new addition... Its still very early but we shared the news with our families on Father's Day so the cat as they say, is out of the bag. We kept the news to ourselves for a whole week (which was pretty cool) so it was awesome to finally let it all out. ;) Our boys are excited too... or at least they will be. Reese told us to inform the Doctors that it needs to be a boy and Wes cried with his face in his hands claiming he only wants two brothers in our family- that's it. He felt better once I told him that his number one job would be making the baby laugh. After praciticing many funny faces, he decided it was something he could do afterall. I have no doubt that once the time arrives, all will be thrilled! Meanwhile, we are praying for a different experience this time as I threw up pretty much throughout both pregnancies. We're trusting the Lord though as He won't give us anything we can't handle. What a blessing!

OMG!OMG!OMG! Congratulations.....No wonder why you havent made a post in a week. You've been trying to keep a secret!
Here's hoping for a girl! :)
Congrats Rachel!! We have not made the offical anouncement (other that our family) but we are also expecting a baby in early Feb. This is our 2nd and I think that you are brave to have the 3rd! Please stay in touch.
Oh my goodness! I'm thrilled for you all! A huge congratulations to you and Ben! That is too cute what Wes's reaction was. He will soon enjoy sharing in on the 'big brother' responsibilities. Again, congrats!
RACHEL!!!! Congratulations! I'm so excited for you! I don't know why, but you've been on my mind a lot this pregnancy. Must have been that conversation we had at Christmas about having "more". We find out in two weeks what we're having, so I'll let you know! Maybe it'll be a sign for you! God's blessings!!!
hey Rachel,
Congrats on the baby news! If it's another boy, I think Stephen would be a good name. Or if it's a girl, Stephanie. Works well either way ;-)
Seriously, I'm happy for you guys. Becky and I have three great kids, as well. Our youngest turned 2 in May. Pretty wild.
Shalom,
Steve K.
Congratulations! Ivan thinks it will be a girl, and Grant just wants it to be a BABY. There ya go!!! We are so excited for you. You will love THREE... it was actually an easier transition than two for us... go figure! Love ya!
What can I say?! Congrats, congrats, congrats!!!! Praise God for the miracles he lets us be a part of!! We are so excited for you guys; maybe you'll work up to the wonderful #4 like us!!! (Your #1 is part of the reason we have our #3!) I really wish we could be in Minnesota with you guys to see that belly grow and then see the new baby! Thanks for having a blog page for me to keep up on things down here! We love you guys! Love the Poffs
Congrats guys! How exciting. These next months will fly by for you! I pray for a healthy and uneventful pregnancy. I agree with Kathy, adjusting to 3 is much easier than 2! Unless of course its twins??!! I'm excited for you guys!
