Is That Girl PREGNANT?!
Yes indeed it is true, we are expecting baby number 4! Isn't that crazy? We are so excited and feel so blessed! I've had some friends ask if I was ever going to post about it, so here it is. I am 17 weeks pregnant and due January 25. Other than a sciatic nerve issue I had for about six weeks, it's been a pretty good pregnancy so far (I'm actually one of those weirdo's who loves being pregnant). I've never had any problems with that nerve before and was wondering if any of you have? I had no idea it could get so bad and could barely walk for about a month (wasn't loving it so much then). Anytime I would go with Paul to the store he would beg me to ride on one of those motorized scooters the store has. Let me tell you it was tempting since I was in so much pain, but I'm much too prideful and figured somebody needed it more than me. Instead I would follow about 10 feet behind Paul and the cart full of kids. He would always joke that when people saw us together they must think, "Ah what a nice guy, he's married to a little crippled girl". Paul was a huge help during my "disabled" time. Thankfully things have shifted off that nerve and I can walk again, Hurray! The kids are as excited as I am about the pregnancy and ask all the time about the baby. Eliza loves to pat my ever growing belly several times a day and say, "wow mom, your tummy is sooo huge, I think it's almost ready to come out!" Nope, still have 23 more weeks, but thanks Eliza. We find out during our next Dr. appt what the gender is. I'll keep y'all posted! Can't wait till January!

I'm so glad you can walk again. It sounded so awful. I can't wait to see what we are having. Yes, thats right- me and you. Remember what drew said "sharing caring".
Yeah Glory, Paul, and kids!! I am sooo excited for you all. That baby is going to be kissed, malled, and adored by all the siblings. It only gets funner and funner as you have more because the baby brings such love and joy to all the children,, plus you and Paul. I think we can safely say that the more children we have, the more amazing our moms are to us for having so many (especially your mom, wow!). So glad to hear your back issue cleared up, keep up all the good work with the kiddies within and around you.
Congrats to the Watts fam! So much fun. Good luck with the rest of the pregnancy.
about time you told us! lol CONGRATULATIONS!
Congratulations! Everyone I know has just had a baby or is pregnant. I love going to ultrasounds. We were so shocked to hear we were having a girl.
You're in my "google reader" now so I guess we'll be finding out soon if yours is a boy or girl. Good luck with everything:)
Sorry about the siatica thingy!
YAY!!! I was beginning to wonder if you were going to keep it a secret forever. I'm so sorry about your crazy nerve. That totally stinks. CONGRATULATIONS!! I love you and I hope that we have opposite genders so that we can betrothe our babies.
Also, I ventured into our storage trailer to see if I could find my maternity clothes. I decided to try some on to see which ones I needed to wash and HALF OF THEM FIT. We need to talk so we can compare pregnancy wierdnesses!!
Glory I am so excited your pregnant :) I am guessing it's a girl which probably means it's a boy. I was also wondering when you would anounce. I have experienced a little bit of the Nerve Butt!!! and it's the worst. Thats what I call it. I hope it doesn't come back. I miss you Glory and hopefully I will make my way to Texas after the baby comes. YAY! Thats my goal.
Congrats on #4! That's such great news. Make sure you let us know what you are having. I'm actually on #4 too due Feb 7. We're not going to find out what we're having this time but I'm pretty sure it's a girl since I'm not living next tothe the toilet. We'll see. =) Your trip to South Cali looked so fun!!!
WAHOO!!!!! Huge congratulations to you guys. What is your guess? Boy or Girl? Have you consulted with the Chinese Birth Calendar?
I am so excited to hear what you guys are going to have.
Wow! Congratulations! That is so exciting. You are such a good mom - #4 is lucky to be joining your family.
Good luck with everything - I hope the back issue doesn't cause any more trouble.
Glory, congrats! I am so happy for you. I totally have sciatic nerve problems. It acts up all the time. It seems like once it happens, it tends to flare up once in awhile. Sorry. Just be careful now with lifting heavy things, which is hard having kids and everything moms are supposed to do. Ugh. Anyway, I am way excited for you. Love you!
YAY! babies and kids growing up are so much fun. i'm glad you haven' run into the huge compications Mikelle and I had (she had liver stress and I had toxemia, the works). That's a big blessing! Keep us posted on what you're having! Congrats! xoxo
OMG congrats!!!! I am so excited for you! Now you and Ash can talk baby stuff together! :)
Congrats, Glory! BTW you look great, and I'm glad you can walk now. Hopefully that nerve isn't pinched again later on!
Here is your pick:
BROWNIES -- You are adventurous, love new ideas, and are a champion of underdogs and a slayer of dragons.
When tempers flare up you whip out your saber.
You are always the oddball with a unique sense of humor and direction.
You tend to be very loyal.
oh yeah I forgot to tell you-
I went through the same nerve thing in my back with Connor, my saving grace was a pair of Croc shoes! My doctor suggested them and they helped sooooo much!
Congrats, Glo! I also have had back problems with pregnancy. Best thing I ever found was a physical therapist who specializes in pregnant women. It made a world of difference for me. Too bad I didn't know such a thing existed my first two pregnancies! It was the BEST!
