Speaking of the latest and greatest, we have news to share...we're expecting!
Our due date is July 4th and we couldn't be more excited. I'm just about 12 weeks along and feeling pretty good. Unlike my pregnancy with Samira, I'm experiencing nausea this time but nothing too bad. We had our first ultrasound a couple weeks ago. I almost forgot how amazing it felt to see the baby for the first time. We pointed out the little peanut to Samira and told her it was her baby. She had a confused look on her face as though she were thinking, "That peanut is a baby?"
Samira, a.k.a. Miss Chatty Cathy, continues to be a ton of fun! Darryl and I have to be especially careful of what we say around her now that we have our very own parrot at home repeating our words. Samira did wonderful on the planes back to Missouri this past Thanksgiving (thanks to a whole lot of help from Dora and Diego DVDs) and really enjoyed spending time with the Siefker side. She was facinated by the snow for about a minute until we went outside to play with it. Christmas is just around the corner and we're looking forward to it! We're hosting it at home again this year and are looking forward to another fun family get together. We hope that you and your loved ones enjoy a safe and happy holiday season.
Feel free to check back often. We'll look forward to hearing from you via the comments postings. From our family to yours...
