Guessing Game!

 Saturday we thought it would be fun to play a guessing game with the kids.  The rules were we would show them a picture one kid at a time, then they had to guess what it was.  Once they had their turn they had to wait in the kitchen as to not influence the next guesser...

First up was Nathan:





He guessed correctly and figured it out in about thirty seconds.  This isn't his first rodeo.

Ella was a different story.  
She figured out it was a baby, but just which baby she was confused about.
 

Is it Evelyn? Addie? 
 
Me?  Nathan?
 
She even wondered if a friend of ours was having a baby..
 

Then Nathan came to offer a few clues...
Finally, here she's asking me, "Mom, are you pregnant!?"
 

Addie did not want to participate in this activity and started off pretty grumpy.  She quickly warmed up when she saw the photos.

She knew right away that it was a baby.
 



Matt pointed out to her the date on the photos, so she soon figured out what this all meant!

Finally came little squirt:

No idea...
 

Matt explains this is a baby, and the baby is inside Mommy's tummy...
 

Evie loves babies!
 

So, the cat is out of the bag!  
Blessing number 5 is expected to arrive around September 5, 2016-which quite fittingly is Labor Day!

Thankfully, everyone is overjoyed!


 Five can seem like a lot of children.  The reality is we live in a three bedroom house, don't drive a large SUV, and are surviving thriving on a single income.  However, when I look at the above photo I feel I could have a dozen (I mean, I won't, but just look at 'em!)

We are so blessed, beyond our own comprehension.


Thank you Jesus!
