Another Baby for the Warks!

We're having another baby folks! We are praising God for His miraculous gift and blessings. We are overwhelmed by His graciousness to us. We can't wait to meet this little boy or girl in December!

Last year was a very difficult year for us. Lots of loss, trials, sadness and tribulations in our home. One of our trials was that we lost 2 babies last year  (in June and December) which was so emotionally, spiritually and physically taxing...on all of us. Having this little one is no doubt a special miracle and we thank God for this little life!

Here I am at 5 1/2 months...although I'm 6 months tomorrow!

4 1/2 Months...I feel like I've grown lots in one month.....sweet potato to a papaya! Yah!

I have a book that says how big your baby is using fruits and veggies...Jude loves to ask me daily..." Mom, how big is the baby today....a papaya?" He'll be so thrilled when next week I tell him the baby is as big as an eggplant! This kids are so excited, especially the boys! Jude wants a baby girl, Ansel wants a baby boy and Mama just wants a healthy baby and is so glad it's living and thriving! Gabriella knows having another will be a lot of work and less time for her. She know I will rely on her to be a help to me. She's my wise and introspective one. But, she too is getting excited and has enjoyed feeling the baby kick. In fact, all the kids get a kick out the baby moving! We are so thankful and can't wait to have another. JM and I  both often felt someone was missing in our family. This is going to be a extra special Christmas.
