Some exciting news from our family....
We'll be adding another baby Ballard in March!
Wait, what?!? You thought we were done. Well, to be honest, so did we for quite a few years. After Conrad was born, we were DONE having more kids. Five little ones ages 8 and under was busy and exhausting. But, over the last year, I've felt like maybe there was one more baby meant to join our family. Conrad has asked me multiple times when we would have a baby. Then our van was totalled and our new car seats one more. In the end we couldn't deny the prompting that our family wasn't quite complete. We're very excited to welcome this new little one to our home!
Thankfully, I'm entering the second trimester and feeling much better. I was SO exhausted over much of the summer. Not to mention nauseous. My long list of summer projects never happened (except painting the school room. That one did finally happen though it took me a solid month to finish it haha!) We still managed to sneak in enough summer adventures for the kids though which was great. We'll get caught up on those projects soon enough.
The kids are super excited about the baby. Conrad has told me "Your belly is big. But you're not fat; it's just a baby." Just wait kiddo. My belly will be huge before long! Eliza has decided to crochet the baby a blanket and has already started. She's the sweetest!
When this baby gets here, there's no doubt he or she will be greatly loved!
