The 3 year pattern....

Apparently the Call family likes to make big changes in our lives every 3 years..........

2006 - We got married
2009 - We became a family of three
2012 - We become a family of 4

This little jelly bean will be joining our family around November 3, 2012. 

 Yep this little boy (who really isn't so little anymore) is going to be a big brother.  

And he is ok with it....as long as moms belly doesn't grow.  I think that he is going to be very disappointed because Mom is already feeling quite large (I can no longer hide the fact that I am prego).  

This pregnancy has been completely different for me.  Not only because I am not teaching and I have a 3 year old to chase around......but because I have been sick!  I wasn't sick at all with Shaef so this little one has really thrown me for a loop.  I am super grateful for Zofran, sleep, Saltines, and soda.  

After weeks of not being able to cook without making myself sick - food finally sounded good.  Unfortunately I was craving Cafe Rio and there is not one close at all.  Other things I have been craving since being able to eat: Red Vines, Double Decker Taco Supreme from Taco Bell, Nachos, and Crispy Chicken Strips dipped in Honey Mustard.  Ya basically completely unhealthy food! 

After our little scare with Shaef's birth I have been super nervous to have another baby and have been lacking the faith and trust that the Lord knows better than I do.  I prayed about my concerns in December and felt complete Peace....a feeling I hadn't felt in 2 1/2 years.  We decided that we would go ahead and try to have a baby later this year....and our little surprise came quicker than we thought.  I really believe that a baby was waiting to come to our family but the Lord was waiting until I was ready.  The Lord is mindful of me!  We are all very excited for this exciting adventure we are going to have!
