We're having a....

I guess this story starts back in January, Well actually it was December. Actually even a few months before that.I was with Jackson in his room and we were working on getting things cleaned up. We were talking as we did. When he said to me, " Mom a baby boy is coming to our house." Sometimes kids will say things like this, I wont give it much thought. But this caught my attention. There was a feeling in the room and I felt something. He mentioned this a few more times over the next few months. In December I was stewing over a decision. We were deciding whether we should by a suburban or not. I asked my mom's advice and she said, just pray about it. So I did, I knelt down by my bed that night and asked my Father in Heaven to help me make this decision. I woke up early the next morning, and felt impressed to go read my scriptures. So I did. I do not remember what I read that morning, but I do remember how I felt. I felt impressed that we needed to have another baby. Tyler woke up a little while later and asked if I had gotten my answer. "Well I got A answer, but you aren't going to like what I say." With tears in my eyes,I proceeded to tell him the thoughts of my heart and the feelings I had. He said he didn't know if he could do it. I asked him to pray, and he did. A few weeks later he told me he knew it was what we should do.He is such a good man. I know he had plans and ideas for the future and was worried about how he could make it all work. But he was willing to risk it, to act in faith and do what is right. He's just awesome! So needless to say we are expecting a baby. We have never kept the secret of having a baby. When we find out we're expecting we are just too excited to share the news. This time, because most everyone expected that we were done having kids, we thought it would be fun to wait and really surprise them. However I couldn't wait to tell my kids. So after I went to my first Dr. appt I had a few picture from my ultrasound and decided to show them and tell them the news. I wont ever forget. We will sitting around the kitchen table. I pulled out the ultrasound pictures and asked if they knew what they were. Most of the kids looked and them funny and didn't know what it was. Sydney knew though and said that is a picture of a baby in a mom's baby. I asked, "Do you know who's a baby this is?" and with a huge smile on her face she asked, "Are you having a baby?" "We are!" I said. Immediately all the kids were jumping up and down with excitement. Their happiness moved Tyler and I to tears as we saw the joy and love our children already had for this new baby. A few weeks later we went to get an ultrasound. Tyler and I went but told the kids we would have a surprise for them to tell them whether we are having a baby boy or girl. Here it is. We are having a..... ...Boy!!
