Patience is a virtue....

that I don't possess. Ha Lauren and Randy have definitely helped me practice patience the last couple of weeks as I have been waiting to excitedly shout that...


Jack is getting a sibling in October!!!! Lauren and Randy announced her pregnancy at Jack's birthday party, which made the party THAT much more fun! Not only does her mommy lack patience, I think Ceilidh is following me my footsteps. Starting from 8am this morning, EVERY TIME the phone rang or my text ring sounded she was running it to me. "Is it Aunt Lauren?! Are they having a boy or a girl?! Is it her, Momma?!" Finally, THE call came in; and Lauren excitedly told me Jack is getting a BROTHER!!! We are thrilled to meet Judson Andrew Thomas in the not too far future! Most importantly he is healthy and growing well. I am obsessed with his name. Judson, was the name of a missionary to Burma ( I believe) that Lauren and Randy admire. Andrew, is obviously just a great name and a really special honor to her only brother.

And when you think it can't get any better, Lydia and Paul announced at Phoenix's bday party that Baby Collins #3 is on his/her way as well!!!!! Zion is like the family's town crier. At family gatherings he will gather everyone together and give announcement or speeches! HA It is hilarious and sweet all wrapped up in one. Zion stood on the picnic table and told everyone he was "getting a baby sister in December!" So, no one officially knows the baby's gender; but apparently Zion has been praying for a baby sister for a while now. *Tear* I love that kid. I have been excitedly waiting to share this news as well; but I wanted to wait until it had become FB official first. ha My gender guessing has been WAY off recently, so I am going to guess Baby Collins is a boy. *Don't throw eggs at my house tonight, Lyd! wink* If I guess boy, she will be a girl! HA We are so happy for you guys!!! Love your family of FIVE!
