Rock-A-Baby!

I never posted the most exciting news that we have gotten in a long time...we are having another baby! We were surprised when we found out, but so, so, so excited to add another little cutie to our family. I waited until my 12 week appointment to tell the girls. I wanted to make sure everything was fine by then. We told them one afternoon, and Adilyn was so excited. She was confused because she said that my belly was not big enough to hold a baby. I told her that the baby was tiny right now, but it would get bigger. She asked some funny questions like, "How do you know it's in there?" "Who told you it was in there?" And of course, the best, "How did it get in there?" After she got over the confusion, she was really excited. Kacy didn't get it, which I expected.

Adilyn has had some sweet moments about the baby. The other day she found a baby toy, and she said, "We should keep this out for our new baby." There is a plate that Adilyn has that has little flowers on it of all different sizes. She said, "This one is my flower, this little one is Kacy's, and this tiny one is for our new baby." The Monday after I told her, she shared the news with everyone at school during their circle time, and she said she was so happy! She keeps checking my belly out and keeps saying that it keeps getting bigger everyday.

Kacy hasn't really said or done much because I think she's just too young, but she did the absolute sweetest thing this morning. She was sitting on my lap while I was putting her shirt on, and she put her hands on my belly. She started shaking my belly back and forth, and singing "Rock-a-baby" which is her version of "Rock-a-bye, Baby." I didn't know if she was doing that on purpose, so I asked her what she was doing. She said, "Singing, baby" and smiled so sweet at me! It brought tears to my eyes. It was a great start to a Monday!

I can't wait to see how this new little bundle will fit into our family!
