I know, I know....you are SHOCKED! Well, imagine the utter shock Larry and I felt when we found out! God has a way of surprising at times with the plans he has for your life. And apparently he has planned that we have 2 children under the age of 2 and in diapers in 2009!
I think Larry and I both walked around overwhelmed and in shock for the first few weeks. We actually found out the good news the day before Thanksgiving. We just kept it to ourselves until Christmas when we told our families. We really wanted Mary Lindsey's first Christmas to be all about her. And it was! So now we are sharing our good news. The projected due date for this baby is August 3rd. (Larry's 30th Birthday is August 5th! So maybe it will be born on Daddy's Birthday!)
Praise God, today we went to the doctor and everything looks wonderful as far as the development of Baby LeBlanc. I am ten weeks and one day today. We had a sonogram done and Larry and I were amazed at how clear you could see all of the baby's body parts. You could clearly see the head and the abdomen, the legs and arms. You could see the baby move its hands to and from its mouth. It was amazing! We were not expecting to see so much so soon. I looked back at Mary Lindsey's baby book this afternoon and I realized that we did not have a sonogram with her at this point. We had one at 6 weeks and then it jumped to 20 weeks when we found out she was a girl! So thankfully, it appears that we have another perfectly healthy baby on the way. The heartbeat was strong and fast...much like Mary Lindsey at this point. Could that mean a girl? Who knows! My symptoms are totally different with this baby. MUCH LESS sickness...praise the Lord! So maybe it is a boy! Who knows!
Well, that is our good news. I will keep everyone updated over the coming months. Now, I have to go chase down my child. Love to all!

Brooke, Congrats! And boy, are you a great liar - stomach bug at Kindermusik - yea right, SURE! You'll be happy to know that none of us got the stomach bug until after Christmas day, starting on the 27th, actually. I'm so excited for you all! Ms. Paulette told me about your blog on facebook. So cute! Can't wait to keep up with you more since we won't be in KM together next time. We'll have to do lunch whenever you are in town and let Mary Lindsey and Jack play, or let Jack run all over her, better yet! She's gotta learn to stand her ground with #2 on the way and he can surely give her some tips. His older sister is actually scared of him - ha! Take care! Susan Miller
I am so excited for you! I totally understand the surprise you must have felt! Your mom told me about your blog- I know your parents are beside themselves!
Congratulations Brooke! That is so exciting! Babies are truly gifts from God!
