Starting to show yet?: Unless there's a watermelon under my shirt, then yes - I am most definitely growing a baby!
Mood: Great! I feel pretty bad because my patience with Trice is taking a hit ... maybe that's just a mixture of his 2-year-old personality finally coming out and lack of sleep!

Best moment this week: Doing something kind for a friend (mysteriously) and knowing how much it made her and God smile, telling Trice about the baby, visiting the apple orchard!
Worst moment this week: Hearing that our friend lost her brother. I can't imagine the heart ache their family is going through.
Miss anything: Nope.
Trice's Thoughts this Week: This week we ended up telling Trice about the baby. I know everyone will have their own opinion on when/how you should let a toddler know, but we know our child and knew it was the right time. He was getting very curious and a little anxious about the conversations in our house lately and wanting people to repeat what they said. He picks up on EVERYTHING, so it was only a matter of time. We picked a good time to tell him (not having any clue what his reaction would be) and it went over great! Now he gives my belly 1,000 kisses/day, wishes baby night-night, and tells Jesus, "Thank you mommy baby in her belly. Amen." Break.My.Heart. His reaction was, "Where's the baby? I can't see it?" I told him baby has to grow in my tummy before he/she can come out. "Baby come out and I hold it and it play wif my trains." Later this week he said, "Baby might scream. Daddy have to feed it." he also told me, "I ate the baby. It's all gone now." He's also convinced that daddy has a baby in his tummy. "Lots of babies in here!" and our newest is that God lives in his tummy .. yikes!
