The story behind "Baby Louey"

It just dawned on me that I ought to explain where Baby Louey got his/her name.

PLEASE NOTE: WE ARE NOT NAMING THE BABY LOUEY, LUIS, LOUISE, ETC.

We were just calling the baby "the baby"...like any expecting family does. Only, Ash would sometimes get confused and tripped up, and called the new baby "Baby Gabriel." Don't want or need that.

So we said to the boys, "Maybe we should give the new baby a name that we can use until we find out if it's a brother or sister (and name it for real.)" They both liked that idea and Ashton cheerfully exclaimed "How about Baby Louey!?" Don't know how he came up with that one, but as funny as it sounds...it has stuck.

And everyone is getting so used to talking about "Baby Louey" that Dan and I are starting to get worried that it'll be hard to refer to him/her by anything different. YIKES!

Hello all reading this.

After viewing similar blogs that friends have set up for their soon-to-be babies, I thought I would try one for ours.

Yes, you read that right... Dan and I are having another baby!!!

Baby #4 is due the day before Good Friday (April 9th.) What else could the Easter Bunny bring, besides chocolate (and maybe Peeps...if Grandma remembers) that would make it the best Easter ever???? A new baby!!!

We are all very excited (and of course, very scared) but mama and bubs are doing well and we all have our fingers, toes and eyes crossed.
