Hiccup

We are finally spreading the news.  Nash and Nolan are going to be big brothers to Baby W #3.  I am 9 weeks along - due around August 4th.  We have been talking a lot with the boys about the baby.  Nash has lovingly named the baby "Hiccup" from the movie "How to Train Your Dragon."  Nolan took his first nap today without his "boppy" because he is going to be a big brother and Hiccup will need a boppy too.  He searched for that thing for a few minutes but finally settled in with his blanket.  Three day potting training begins this Friday.  Nash told me today that he is probably not going to be able to help me feed Hiccup because he will be busy feeding himself.  On Wednesday Jason and I went to Hiccups first appointment.  Dr. Mihm said it was a little early but we were able to hear the heartbeat at 8 1/2 weeks.  That sweet sound never gets old.   The boys are still sticking to their original wishes.  Nash wants a brother and Nolan wants a "shisher."  I have been feeling pretty nauseous and extremely tired lately.  Exhausted is a good word.  Hopefully that will all pass in the next few weeks.  I'm not going to lie, there are moments of panic when I feel overwhelmed at the thought of 3 kids, but mostly we are feeling pure excitement to add another member to our family.

  1. Hiccups is coming into a perfectly wonderful family. She (hoping) will be well loved and protected by 2 great big brothers.
    The middle name needs to be Hiccups.
