Baby #3!

I still have some Easter pics to upload...but for now, we are going to skip it and talk about Baby Newnam #3!!

I found out the morning of my birthday that I was expecting baby #3. It was a HUGE surprise to both of us but we are so excited. I have always wanted to have more kids and Josh has always said he would like 2 with the possibility of 3. So after this one, our family will be complete. I am just over the moon about this new little baby that will be joining our family. We kept the news secret so that I could go to the doctor and confirm everything. After 3 different beta tests, I was definitely pregnant. We were going to wait closer to the end of the month to tell everyone, but I wanted to do it on Easter and that's when we did. I don't do the whole "wait till 12 weeks thing." I completely understand the reason behind it, however I have my trust in the Lord and I want everyone to be able to celebrate with us and be just as excited as we are.(plus, I'm horrible at keeping secrets) Our families are really excited also. My sister literally jumped out of her chair and ran to hug me when she found out. I am so glad that everyone is as happy as we are. 

I couldn't wait to tell Emma and Ryleigh that they were going to have a new baby sister or brother. Ryleigh couldn't have cared less and Emma asked if I ate a monkey! I'm sure over the next several months she will realize what is going on more and more. She has already stated that she would like a baby brother. She is going to be such a big helper. I can't wait!


This is my ultrasound picture from today. The little one is looking great and had a great heartbeat. 

It doesn't matter how many kids you have, seeing that little baby and heartbeat never gets old. It was just as special and wonderful this time as it was the first time. 

So there it is. My due date got pushed back a few days this morning so my new due date is Decemeber 4th. 
It's going to be a great Christmas this year.
