Pregnant with Number 4!

For the much awaited explanation.  I know it came to some surprise that I would announce that we were having another baby especially since I was about 100% sure that we were done.  Well let me tell you how the wind shifted.  A few months ago I had a dream.  I am a very into dreams.  I always have been.  I believe that sometimes you can receive messages from people that have past and sometimes find out things about yourself that you didn’t know, and etc.  I know I know I’m digressing.  Well I had a dream that my father, who is passed, came to me telling me that I was to have another baby.  It would be a boy but I needed to have one more child.  I told Tait my dream and he really wasn’t into it.  I have to tell you either was I.  I think that was just the nourishment all this seed needed to grow.  So a short time later I had yet another dream.  This time I dreamed about the baby.  He was just like Maya.  Had the same fair skin tone and was just beautiful.  But I told Tait about the dream again.  So a few months later we started talking about it and he was going to go and  pray to find out just what was going on.  Well we decided that we would try for 3 months.  And in the 3 months if I were to become pregnant then we would know that this was an influence not just me dreaming crazy things.  So here I am 7 weeks pregnant.  I do wish however it was 7 months and not 7 weeks, but that will come in time.  I understand it was shocking to hear but at the same time I know how I felt when I dreamed about it. 

 

So we will welcome a 4^th child into our home.  I have to say that I have gotten rid of some supplies that will be necessary but nothing that we won’t be able to recover in time.  We will have SEVERAL garage sales that will come up that we will be able to get things at, like high chairs, and baby clothes.  The main items like bottles and diapers will be purchased again, but not a huge problem.  I know that once the baby gets here we will have everything we will need. 

 

The girls are over the moon about the 4^th baby.  Maya is constantly telling my belly hello and asking me if the baby likes things that I’m doing.  So it’s kind of sweet.  Lehna just likes telling everyone.  Nikolai just keeps asking to see the baby.  I told him that it’s just not time for the baby to come but it will take time.  We will be moving the kids around a bit, but not for a while.  We will put the boys together in one more and the girls together in another.  But again this will be waiting until this baby is sleeping through night… and well I guess we should wait and see if the baby is an actual boy…  I’m fairly certain it will be a boy… but you know let’s make sure that it isn’t a horrible trick.

 

As far as the pregnancy goes.  It’s much the same as Nikolai’s I really haven’t had much morning sickness.  I will have bouts of feeling yucky but it comes and goes.  I feel like I’m peeing every 10 minutes and I smell everything but other than that… It’s pretty basic.  Hopefully it will remain that way the entire way.  I do have my first two appointments set up.  So that’s a good thing.  I hope it will go fast. 

 

Well one thing that I am understanding now.  Is now I know why I wasn’t blessed with the hiring job… even though I would have been PERFECT at it.  Apparently I’m supposed to be focusing on other things.  I have still been thinking about my career and what it isn’t and what it is.  And I have to say that I do feel like I have fallen short on my goals but at the same time… I do have a wonderful family life.  And so maybe this is just my time to focus on that and eventually the rest will fall into order.
