Soon there will be another monkey on my back! Over Willem's birthday weekend we shared the news with our family that Baby Weiss #3 is due mid November. We couldn't be more excited. I think that was the best present Willem received.
Friday night Jason told him Willem to come to our room 1st thing when he woke up. (aka 5:45 am) He crawled into bed with us in anticipation of the surprise. When we told him there was a little sister or brother growing inside of me he was quiet for a moment and then said, "this is just what I have been wanting." We told him it was a secret and we'd tell the whole family after his party. He asked a series of questions and then said he was tired and wanted to go back to his bed.
He left our room and minutes later we hear him down the hall waking up Grandma and Tia Julie saying, "There's a baby in my mommy's belly. There's a baby in my mommy's belly!" Needless to say, the entire house was soon awake and hearing the news from our newsboy.
We told Ellie when she woke up as well and although there wasn't much of a reaction yet we're sure she'll be a caring, loving sister. She's drawn to every baby she sees at restaurants, school, the park, etc.

That news is just too exciting to not share with everyone! ;) The day we told Marley, she announced it to her class/school. At pick-up, the school nurse congratulated me. haha.
