The "I've Been Waiting" Post

It's been a while I know, but I am hoping you, my faithful readers, family and friends will forgive me after I tell you why.

Actually, I'll let Anna Claire tell you why....


Anna Claire is going to be a big sister in June! I am almost in my 2nd trimester and other than nausea and sciatic nerve problems (any suggestions on pain relief?) in my back, I'm finally feeling a little more like myself.

Here are just a few more shots from the day. I promise she is excited. In fact when we ask her what she wants to have, a brother or a sister, she always answers brother. I'm leaning more towards girl because my cravings have been the exact same as they were with Anna Claire.




My mornings have been kind of rough and that is when I usually have time to sit and be on the computer, so I'm hoping now I'll be a bit more regular in posting. Thanks for reading!

Yippee Sarah!! That is great news! Anna Claire will be a great big sister. Those photos are just adorable. I am sorry you've been sick...but also glad you've been sick...you know what I mean. It was always a strange comfort when I had a wave of nausea, because it made me feel like things were progressing the way they should. Of course I am sure you are tired of hearing that, when you feel so bad. :) But congratulations! Are you guys going to find out if it's a boy or girl? Either way, this makes for a very Merry Christmas!

I've been waiting, too. ;) I knew this post had to be coming sooner or later. Congrats to you, friend. I have to say, I'm pulling with Anna Claire on this one, too, but after 3 daughters...I dunno. Either way, YEA!!!

Great News!! I just think your Anna Claire is such SWEETNESS! I had trouble with sciatic nerve when I was pregnant with my son but it was later on around 7 months. My doctor said I could go to a chiropractor to see if it would relieve it but I never did. Hope you start feeling better.

Hello and congratulations!!! Your friends the Arnolds just Facedbooked me and asked if I had read your posts lately. I had a feeling about that question, so hopped on "borrowed internet" from my neighbor to see if I could connect. So glad I did.

I can't believe how big Anna Claire is. She is beautiful, and I'm so thrilled for you all.

much love to you~
