The Details
Ok, now that I have everyone's attention, I assume you have some questions. The first one being when this child is due. November 3rd would be the date. If you are good at math, you know that puts me almost 2 months along. We were going to wait longer to tell, but my belly has grown about 4 inches in the last 3 weeks. I would rather people know I'm pregnant then think I am getting fat.
The next question would be about a car. No, we do not have to buy a new car. It is on the list, as our car is over a decade old, but this baby will fit in the car we have. We will need to replace all the car seats though in order to fit 3 across the back seat.
The other question is where we will live. We plan to stay where we are to start with.
Job - Thad's name is now on the list of qualified applicants with the Department of corrections, waiting for an opening at one of the 5 prisons here. He is also applying with the sheriffs department and with the State police. The hiring process for law enforcement officers is a very long process. We could see him get a position in corrections in the next month or two, but it will most likely take 6 to 12 months before he would qualify for sheriff or state police.
Was this planned? Of course! God plans all babies! Thad has said since before we got married that he wants 6 kids. I told him I don't want to be having kids still when I am old. We need to keep them coming to get them all out while we are still young and energetic. I think 18 months is the perfect age difference. That being said, we were planning another one this time next year. No form of birth control is 100% and God decided to bless us with another baby a little sooner then planned. We are very happy and excited to welcome another little blessing into our family.
Anyway, I think I have covered the basics. Yes I know I will have my hands full. Better full then empty!
Oh, and the last question...no we do not know if it is a boy or a girl. No we will not be finding out until the baby is born. Yes, we have decided on names, but we will not be telling until the baby is born. So, you can save those questions until November.
