Big Brothers

Matt and I decided that it was a good time to tell the boys about the baby. We told them after church on Sunday when we were eating donuts at our favorite grocery store. They were so excited to hear about the new baby. Really, genuinely excited. It was so fun to see their reaction. Matt asked them if they thought the baby would be a boy or girl. Christopher thinks it is going to be a boy. Daniel thinks it is going to be a girl. Daniel also thinks that, "This baby is going to be a girl, and then you will very quickly have another girl, Mommy. Then our family can be 3 and 3." He cracks me up sometimes. The boys have been talking about being big brothers. It's fun to listen to. Christohper told me today that the baby can sleep in his bed if it wants to. He'll take the big pillow and the baby can have the pillow pet. I really can't wait to hear more little thoughts from them!

Your blog is a great read. The back-up of stories and catching up was so understood on this end! Loved it. Christopher certainly is not his Gigi's child, being a robust early morning kind of kid! And I agree with Daniel - first this baby girl in May, then quickly another girl. Great plan!
Keep writing, Rachel!
