Look at a calendar, everyone...

Jack was born April 6, 2005. 18 months later, Charlotte came. 25 months later, Anna came. And 23 months after her, due on Sept. 19, we're going to welcome NUMBER 4 into our family! Perhaps it's foolhardy, baby hunger--perhaps (more realistically) it's a psuedo-suicidal attempt to get all the kids taken care of in one fell swoop--one crazy, frenzied group of diapers, a crazy, frenzied set of soccer players, a crazy, frenzied time filled with high school and college applications and missions.

Anyone willing to cook and change diapers is hereby offered residence in my guest room forever, especially after the new baby comes and Matt rushes from the delivery room to the OR.

Yay! I look forward to learning about having 4 from you before I take the plunge :) Congratulations!

Wow! That's awesome! I'm so excited for you guys! I have the same philosophy I guess, having kids close in age. I don't really want to be changing diapers when I have kids applying to college. I'm still a little nervous about three. I've heard that #3 is the hardest, but that #4 and on are much easier. It makes me feel better about myself anyways, since I was #4 of 8. :)

Hooray! Being currently in the midst of the newborn stage and no sleep, all I can say is I hope you have a delightfully easy baby for your #4. We're excited for you guys!

Congratulations! I was hoping to catch up. Maybe I'm destined to be a turtle, slow and steady etc.

lol congrats! I here ya! My first 3 are all 20 months apart! I am determined to take a little more time to add a number 4...the tentative plan is they'll be 25 months apart! It doesn't sound like much but i'd gladly have a 2 year old instead of a 1.5 yr old when the next one comes...only time will tell...Jetta is only 4 months old! Okay okay enough about me. Congrats again! Someday we HAVE to get together! I haven't met any of your cute kids yet and vice versa!!!
