YAY for poppy seeds!!!!

Well we've got some EXCITING news in our family!! As a lot of you know my sister and Chuck are getting married June 13th. We couldn't be MORE thrilled for them! Well........they're also going to be Expecting A BABY in October!!! We are SOOOOOOOOO EXCITED!!! My sister doesn't go for her first appt till March 3rd. However, with MY expertise calculations...my guess is that little baby VanAlphen will be here around October 20th!! Now we'll see what the dr's say..but my guess is the BEST! lol.

So I signed my sister up today for the Baby Center. If you go on there it tells you that right now the baby is about the size of a poppy seed....hence YAY FOR POPPY SEEDS!! lol! I just couldn't be MORE excited for them right now!! They couldn't wait to have another baby...although they were thinking they'd wait till after the wedding. However, God had another plan for them!! Now they'll be getting a baby brother or sister for Nate sooner than expected! Nathan is just SOOO excited for the baby!! He can't wait to tell everyone that Mommy has a baby in their belly!! He loves to give kisses to the baby!! He's going to make a GREAT big brother!! Only about 36 weeks to go.....but who's counting! lol!!

So as some of you may be thinking....as was my first thought, HOW THE HECK is she going to fit in her wedding dress!? lol. When I asked her she said, well maybe I can still fit in it. Umm......probably not! lol. At 21 weeks I can't see you hiding your pregnant belly, especially being baby #2! Although she didn't look pregnant with Nathan...(which was TOTALLY NOT FAIR btw) she won't be getting that lucky this time, now that she's down 80 lbs!!!! It's a nice idea though! he he! Well being the BEST matron of honor I can be, I made a call to David's Bridal where she got her dress and low and behold, they'll exchange it for her! HALLELUJAH!!! So we'll be taking another trip up soon to get her fitted YET AGAIN! :) he he! Like I told her better to be safe than sorry....and why have more things to worry about! This is VERY exciting news...we don't want it to cause any stress...just excitement!!!

So now that I've devolged the BIG secret, which btw was VERY hard to keep for over 24hours! She told me I had to wait to tell....I am just soooo excited to be an AUNT AGAIN!!!

Kris...this is perfect timing, I was just getting the baby itch, but better you than me...We have NO ROOM! lol. This will totally help the itch! I can't wait for your little poppy seed to be here! CONGRATULATIONS YOU GUYS!! I LOVE YOU!!

Wow that is exciting. Heather are you more excited than them? How fun! Oh and btw Nate will always be the big brother, he will never be the big sister no matter what Kristin has! ;) Love you!
