Congratulations again! We are friends of friends of your parents and have been following you guys for quite awhile. Our son, Jonathan, is a few months older than Ira, and our new baby will be a few months older than yours. We’re so excited for you!
congrats…..it was good to see you, even for only a few moments, on Christmas Eve – praying that this pregnancy goes well and baby Hays and mama are healthy and happy!
So – I’m a lurker, and friend of Katie’s (though I went to PTS, as well!)… I am typing through weepy eyes. I’ve followed the story of your beautiful and marvelously grace-filled family, and I am delighted to hear of this news. I rejoice with all of the unbridled excitement of Sophia, and pray all of God’s blessings upon you.
Laura,
Can’t wait to see next year’s picture of your kids at the Christmas pageant. You’ll have a shepherd, an angel, and baby Hays could make his/her debut as baby Jesus.
Your faithfulness and willingness to trust God encourages all of us. So happy for you.
laura!! I always read your blog first! How wonderful…congratulations. I’m so very happy for you. And I just read a few posts back, about your friend emily moving. I wish we lived closer to you! And I’m sad that I didn’t make more of an effort when I was ling in the Bronx! Much love & congratulations on the great news!
Sophia just seriously cannot get any cuter or else my heart will explode. And that is a serious thing. I’m so happy for you, and can’t wait to see you get fat. Love the little children, and their brutal way of putting things.
Priceless video. I so wish we would have done that when we broke the news to the girls. Their reactions weren’t nearly as cute but memories none the less. We couldn’t be any happier for you guys and this lucky little person inside your belly!! Hope you’re feeling better in no time.
Congratulations, Laura! Sorry Imissed you and your family at Christmas. I didn’t want to spread my cold germs around the neighborhood. Love the video! So precious. Dolores
Just so you know…I ALWAYS check your blog first! That was the most precious video! I am crying. And we hope it’s going to be a boy or a girl too. I love you dude.
that was so cool! thanks for letting us share that exciting moment with your little ones. and, having 3 is quite an adventure, but it’s a lot of fun, too! each personality is so different and special.
Congrats! For the record, I almost never read Joe’s blog… since I’ve never met the guy and all. Very exciting news… and with Sophia, I pray too that the baby will be a boy or a girl!
Congratulations Laura! I hope you are feeling better and over the 1st trimester yuckiness. There is a reason for our selective memories! Such a beautiful thing and wonderful blessing for you all. We will be keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.
Love,
The Pearsons in New Mexico!
