Some of you already know. Some of you have speculated. Some of you may wonder why I didn't go to Alaska. Well, here it is! It's official....Baker is going to be a big brother! We are expecting our new bundle of joy September 16th. That makes me 11 weeks along and exhausted. I have been very, very sick with this baby. In fact, I was so sick that I cancelled my trip to Alaska and was almost admitted to the hospital for severe dehydration. I convinced my doctor to give me a new prescription because my entire family was out of town (Shane, Baker, Mom and Dad in Alaska and Mom and Pops in Hawaii). So, I got on the medicine, was able to start drinking a bit and able to hydrate myself. I am starting to feel a bit better, but still not 100%. If Dr. Tu is as good as she was with Baker's delivery date, Shane and I will be spending our 8th wedding anniversary and my dad's 62nd birthday giving birth (kind of fitting isn't it)? Shane and I are going to wait and be surprised again. Sorry everyone, but we can always use updated yellow and green outfits :) We have so few surprises in life that we want to treasure this one. Lets just hope for a safe and healthy birth! Baker is very excited. Every morning he talks to "his little sister" (his father has brainwashed him). Shane would love a girl, I would love a boy (I am a girl and know what a pain I was for my mom), but regardless of what we have, we will be excited. This baby will have so much love, they won't know what to do. Please keep us in your thoughts and pray for a healthy, happy baby...just like Baker.

Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats!!!!!! And don't worry, I'm sure that Karsten and I can come up with some green & yellow clothing... :)
That's so great Erika! Enjoy the fun of pregnancy and keep that little babooshka hydrated! My dr told me to drink 10 glasses of water a day - which obviously equates to at least 10 trips to the bathroom. What a great way to spend 9 months, drinking and peeing. It goes by fast though - congrats again!
Hey Erika,
How weird...we got married in the same week! If you have your baby on Sept 12, you'll have it on our 8th anniversary. Crazy.
Congratulations!
Sure. This will teach me to visit your Blog more often! I'm the last to know. Congratulations Shane and Erika. Much love from Suzanne & Cam.
Congrats!!! How exciting. Bakker is going to be a great big brother! By the way, our email has changed to codybreanna@verizon.net.
So if you could email me, so that I can get yours again, that would be great! Jason and Donna
had to register with google to leave a comment but this is similar to my space just not as easy to find people or user friendly as far as I can tell. Congrats on the little one on the way and hope you are feeling better.
