[{Baby News}]


Baby Crockett #2 is on his or her way! We are SO excited and love dreaming up names and guessing the gender. This baby has been making me quite ill, so our big plans of announcing to my family had to be changed at the last minute. Here's the story:

Every year on Christmas Eve, my family gets together and has a huge dinner. There are usually 15- 20 family members and there is so much good food. Unfortunately, my little baby wasn't having any Christmas Eve dinner. I was just about finished with my plate when I felt the dreaded "Oh no, I'm going to throw up" feeling. So I sat there and tried to just let it go away. (Because no one knew about the pregnancy, I didn't exactly want to announce it by getting sick) Well, it didn't go away. I ran into the bathroom and made it to the toilet. My parents' bathroom is not too far away from their dining room so pretty much everyone heard. How embarrassing. When I came out there were worried stares and glances and a few "Are you okay? Are you just not feeling well, have some sort of flu or something?" That's when we brought out Jackson in his shirt that says he's going to be a big brother and let him show everyone the ultrasound of our new little trouble maker. That's not exactly how I wanted to tell my family, but it will be a good story to tell this new little one when he or she is older. But for now, thanks baby. Mama loves you.
