Oh, these boys. 

I love them.  They are two of my favorite people.  I absolutely love how they interact with one another.  They are so different from each other but fit so perfectly as brothers.  They truly love each other.  They truly love me.  Even when I'm a grump or frump...they don't seem to care.  It's so refreshing to be around two boys who love life.

Lately, I just love to listen to them.  They say some pretty enlightening things sometimes. Like last week when Sam so gently asked, "Mom, why is your belly getting so big and jiggly?"  Made me laugh and cringe at the same time. 

I tried to let his comment slide for a couple of days, but he insisted on an answer.  So, Eric and I finally answered with this, "Sam, we're having a baby!"

Yes, folks, we're having baby #3!!  Due September 1st.  And yes, my belly is already getting big and jiggly.  Sam wasn't joking.  And don't forget about Max...he likes to poke my belly button regularly because yes, it's already poking out a little too much.  Ahhhh...pregnancy!

I know baby #3 will fit in just as perfectly as Sam and Max have.  I really can't wait to meet him (her)!

Congratulations! You look great and I haven't noticed any jiggling going on. Although Grant has compared my tummy to both jello and bread dough. Nice. I'm so excited for your family. Your baby is lucky to have such awesome big brothers.
