Expecting #3

We are excited and feel so blessed to announce that "Baby Fairbanks" #3 is on his way!!! He should arrive the last week in May by C-section. It has been so fun to see Jackson's and Ashlynn's reactions to this new blessing in our lives. Throughout the year we prayed with our kids for another little spirit to come to our family. It has been a learning experience for the them to see that their prayers can be answered even if it takes a long time.

Just a few funny things since I have been pregnant...
1. Daddy was on a phone call at work when he got a text with a picture of the pregnancy test...he went speechless and the person on the other line thought he hung up.
2. Jer came home from work and told the kids we had a surprise for them. He told them and they were so excited, but they were still waiting for their surprise. That's kids for you.
3. The morning after the kids found out, they were laying in bed with me and Jackson leaned over and asked me to open my mouth...so I did and the next thing I know he was yelling in my mouth "good morning baby". LOL
4. They have been amazed by my growing stomach and "belly button". LOL! One day Jackson told me I was getting fat. Gotta love it!
5. They always kiss my tummy and talk to the baby.

Just a side note: As you can see I finally updated our blog after three months and that is due to being pregnant. I was fine the first 2 weeks. Then I started feeling sick at 6 weeks which happened to be the weekend we moved into our new house. I was not as sick as I was with Ashlynn, but very tired. I have never felt so tired in my life. I am now almost 17 weeks and have finally gotten over that hurdle.
Thanks to such a wonderful husband and understanding kids I was able to get through these past couple of months!

I LOVE YOU GUYS!
