Practically Perfect
Lately I've been thinking that things are getting a little too easy around here. Ty is fully potty trained at 3 1/4 years, Sam & Devin are "practically perfect in every way", Noah is FINALLY sleeping through the night...and my house almost always has at least one clean room at any given moment. Even the bathroom is smelling a little less like a sewer...is someone finally hitting the water? If I listen really hard I can sometimes even get a 1/2 second worth of quiet time. With all this cleanliness, quietness, and overall, tranquility Mark and I decided to add another kid to the mix! I mean, heck, who would even notice?? :) Yes, this is an official announcement. We are having our fifth...sometime in the middle of November. We are really good at having Fall/Winter babies! We knew we wanted one more, but we hoped we wouldn't have to wait too long...I'm not getting any younger, and while we're in a state of chaos, let's just keep it that way! :) So, our perfect house is about to get even better!!! Bring on the madness!

And do you think a girl is going to fit into that chaos?? Congratulations!
Congrats!!! I am so excited for you! You are so brave!!! Just ignore the fact that I am logged in under Hagen's name! Deanna
Yay! Congrats to you. We felt the *exact* same way when deciding when to have our 5th. You don't want to get too comfortable with independent children. Good luck :)
Yippee! Weird, but now that my baby is 3, things are much more calm around here. I now find myself intently watching mothers with babies and wondering if they are loving them and soaking them in- the cheeks, the chubby hands, the sounds they make. I find myself longing to hold the a baby...and then I'll give the tike right back when I'm done :) Happy for ya, if anyone can do 5, you can!
Oh Amy...I'm so happy for you! I will keep my fingers crossed that this one comes in Pink....they are such a joy!! (Boys are too....don't get me wrong!) Congratulations!
Oooh, hooray!! You make cute babies. :) Can't wait to meet the newest member of this crazy extended family!
How fun for you and your family... Congratulations to you!!

Just for the record... we would love to have all boys...but, we'll keep a girl, too :)
Holy Procreation Batman! Mark is the paterfamilias. Congratulations.
Hey Amy, this is Lissa...you know Lissa Potter, now Nelson. Your favorite once Mia Maid, Laurel, and you kid sister's buddy. I found your blog on Haley's blog, and lucky for me...just in time to read about your great news. Congrats.
It would be fun to get a girl now and I can only imagine how she would be such a princess with all those brothers around! :) Be sure to post when you find out! :) Congrats!
Congrats you guys. One more boy and you've got yourself a
b-ball team. Mandy and i are thinking of having another soon. Just ask her!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
Five IS a great number. Hope you are feeling well.
PS Dave says "What kind of stupid person has five kids?"
