Well, after all this time away from blogging, we are taking the plunge back into it to keep our friends and family updated with us! Hopefully we wont slack off for so long again.
We are all doing well. Teodor is growing so fast & is such a sweet little boy. He brings so much joy to our little family. Hard to believe that he will be two years old in a little over three months! Where does the time go?
Our most exciting family news is that Teodor will be getting a baby brother or sister this September!! We are currently 10 weeks pregnant! We've been to the doctor twice already. At the last visit, we could see the little heart beating and got to bring home the first photo. All is proceeding normally. We told Tyler yesterday at lunch & he is also excited, though hoping for a baby girl. He says that since we already have a baby boy, we don't need another one of those. As far as "morning sickness" goes, it's not just in the morning. Evenings tend to be the roughest actually. Certain smells trigger waves of nauseousness. Needless to say, Gerhard gets to change even more dirty diapers these days!
Cravings have also begun! We are blessed with wonderful friends here that help meet cravings that are not available on the German economy. Strangely enough, tater tots are a top craving. Tried to make them from scratch. The first batch was totally NOT edible & the second batch was hardly edible! We went with friends to lunch on base a couple of weeks ago to meet my craving for a good ol' American turkey melt! It was extremely yummy!
During the pregnancy, we wont be flying over to Charlotte, so we've postponed our next visit till Spring 2011. There are friends & family coming over here to visit us this year, which we are very much looking forward to.
Please be in prayer for us to have a healthy, full-term pregnancy and that the baby is developing as he/she should. We've decided not to have the tests done to check for birth defects. We have been greatly blessed & trust in the Lord for the health and protection of this little baby.
Stay tuned for more postings...
