An Announcement

Well, I had expected that when I next blogged about an addition to our family, it would be about a puppy. However, in this case it's not a four-legged furry member that will be joining the Walker clan (yet, anyway).

It was not planned, in the least, but . . .

We're having another baby!

We had hoped and planned to start trying for another baby around this time next year, but God had other plans for us, I suppose. Just like the saying goes "Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans."

The timing is a little off from what we had hoped, but that's okay. We most definitely wanted a third child and we could not be happier!

As for any concerns about my health, there are honestly more concerns with keeping my blood pressure under control (and I'm starting this pregnancy about 35 pounds lighter than the last so hopefully that will keep the BP more controlled) than any issues with the delivery/ c-section. I had one of the best high risk doctors in the country deliver Kyan and he let us know that another c-section would not present any risk other than the normal risks that all c-sections present. We're confident that this delivery will go just as smoothly (if not moreso!) than Kyan's.

We're looking at an estimated due date of April 10th. Since they'll do a c-section at 38 or 39 weeks, we'll have a late March or very early April baby!
