Noah's new playmate... again

If you've kept up with this blog, you know I've had a post with the same title previously. Although you didn't get too many details, you know the puppy didn't work out, and he was sent back after a couple of days. Unlike the last time, we won't be able to return this new playmate. He or she will be around for good! Meet the newest member of our family...

This is our little peanut at 12 weeks. I'm 16 weeks along now and due November 5th. Yes, that's only 3 days before Noah's birthday. So not only is Noah getting a new playmate, but he might be getting a new birthday buddy too... let's hope not. Billy thinks it would be great for them to share a birthday, but who in the world would want to share a birthday with their brother or sister???

If you've kept up with the blog, you also know that Billy will be leaving for a year. He's leaving on July 20th, which means I will be alone in my third trimester with a toddler. Yes, you can call me crazy! I'll admit I'm a little worried and I know it's going to be tough, but I know that God is only giving me as much as I can handle. And I know that family and friends will be around to help out. So I'll be okay. I might have a head full of gray hair by the time Billy gets back, but if I still have my sanity, I'll count myself lucky!

I consider myself blessed and I'm so excited to have a new edition to our family, but like I said before, it might be a tough year and we could use your prayers!
