"Are you this excited for all your babies?"

This question was asked by a girl at work. Everyone gets a big kick out of my planning and count downs.

I told her "of course!"

With Mike, the pregnancy was so exciting because it was the first and we were just amazed by all the things about it. Watching him kick and move, plus there were so many fun things with your first baby, the baby shower, labor classes, ect. Then once we had him and "it's a boy", It was still so exciting with a new baby and I always wanted a boy first. Luke was thrilled with a son and we were in love.

With Bella, the pregnancy was such a miracle since we had been trying for over 3+ years. I got to remember all the fun of watching her move and then sharing the pregnancy with Mike too was fun. Finding out she was a girl was amazing since I did want a daughter and so did Mike. I also got to induldge in my girlie pink side with bows and tights and dresses. Once we had her, it was so much fun to watch my kids together, playing. She is just a doll and once again we were in love.

With Ava, this is the pregnancy that wasn't supposed to be. I clearly remember my OB saying "there will be no more babies" sniffle. It was miracle to find Buffy and the whole journey has been incredible. Ava completes our family and we are already so in love with her.

Each of my children are so incredibly special and amazing. I am thankful daily that I am blessed with them in my life.
