Yes, as many of you already know, I am pregnant with baby #5. I can hardly believe that I am going to be the mother of 5. This time around has been a little different, because I'm growing much quicker than I ever did before. I guess that is usually the case when you're having your 5th child, but I'm not at all used to it. I'm only 9 weeks and am already down to 2 pairs of pants that sort of work. I have a feeling I'm going to be a fatty fatso by the time this is all over.
We are excited though. This is actually the only child that we have even planned or felt ready for. The others all just sort of happened. We actually discussed this one...a lot. I have been sick...REALLY SICK. So, I'm assuming this is probably a girl; however, we are not going to find out the gender of this child. I know this absolutely drives my family crazy, but I have a few main reasons for not finding out: this is DEFINITELY the last child, the novelty of pregnancy wore off long ago, and I really need something to look forward to. We haven't told our kids yet, but I'm guessing that conversation will be taking place in the near future. They are really curious as to why Mom is constantly throwing up. It's not something I can really hide from them.
So, I will have 5 kids at age 30. I guess I really am my Mother!!

Congratulations!!!! That is exciting news. I am thrilled that you're not going to find out the gender. We really got some flack from the some family and friends for that, but we loved it and would do it again. It gave me something fun to focus on rather than everything that could go wrong (I tend to worry).
congrats nat, so exciting!
Hey Nat,
My mom told me that you were pregnant. Congratulations! -You had me fooled. I thought you were stopping at four. I'm so excited for you guys. I also think it's cool that you're not going to find out what it is. I'm still betting that it will be a girl (Seeing how we tend to do everything the same). That's a great idea to make it a surprise. -Love ya. Let me know if I can do something for ya.
Congratulations! I'm sorry you are so miserable right now. I hope the next few weeks pass by quickly for you.
I'm so sorry that you are so sick! But I'm excited for you! The suspense of not finding out what you are having is gonna be fun!
Hey, how bad is it to be like your mother...at least you won't be the ancient mother with kids in elementary school when you are my age. (Instead you will have some awesome grandkids and you will be excited for grandchild number 12 at a very young age!)
I'm pretty sure I can convince you over the next months to find out what that baby is!
I haven't checked your blog for awhile...CONGRATULATIONS! You amaze me girl. I am still trying to convince myself that four kids is an option! I am sorry you are so sick.
I am here at my mom's house. I would love to get together, but I don't have your number. Send me an email with your info when you get a chance. Maybe we can get together this week or next week.
