We can't wait for April, because . . .

Lillian will be a . . .



Most of you probably heard the news a while ago, but for those of you who may be farther away and not in regular contact, this is for you! We're expecting the fourth (and 99.9% likely to be the last) Bunton - Powell near mid to end of next April. I don't believe in due dates anymore, but they tell me around April 13th. I'm adding a couple weeks to that based on past experience, and hopefully I'll be surprised. There's NOTHING worse than being overdue, so if I plan now for later date, there will be no such thing this time, right??? Lillian will be 2 on March 8th, so they'll be two years apart. We had an early ultrasound since the baby gave us a scare by hiding his heartbeat, and at 14 weeks along, it looks like we'll be having another boy. I've about come to terms with it. I really felt like I was done with the baby boy thing, but that's okay! So now, we're just praying to have one more mild-tempered child. We've got one mild one so far (Sully), and the other two are soooo feisty--they take after their Dad, of course. ;) We're really excited to complete our family. I hate odd numbers--there always seems to be an empty gap. Cameron and I think it will be wonderful to have them all close in age as they grow. Sure, I'm sacrificing two more years of my sanity having 4 children age 6 and under (yikes!), but I'm sure it will be worth it and we can't wait for the adventures ahead!
Luke's excited for the next baby to come b/c I've told him there will be no pet dogs until the next baby is 5 years old!
