A public service running announcement....

I'm having a baby! :)  I know everyone has been wondering why I am so lazy and when I say everyone I mean the 4 people who read this blog (leandra, burt, lyns & lily).   Anyway I found out today it's a BOY! :)  I'm due June 4th so tomorrow I'll be 17 weeks.  Just a little info that has been wanting to burst from my mouth for a while now.

From Burt on Tue, Dec 22, 2009 at 13:19:29 from 206.19.214.144

I was noticing a drop in your, um ability(?), lately. I'm too nice of a guy to say anything though. I chalked it up to old age.

From jun on Tue, Dec 22, 2009 at 13:27:43 from 66.239.250.209

Congrats! That is awesome. Have him on June 4th and he'll have the same birthday as my wife.

From Burt on Tue, Dec 22, 2009 at 13:34:28 from 206.19.214.144

Also, I was thinking you just couldn't hackett. (Thanks Leandra. I stole that from you.)

From josse on Tue, Dec 22, 2009 at 13:51:53 from 70.193.90.107

Oh congrat!! I am soooo excited for you, and a little jealous. That one is so cute that looks like he is waving.

From Merri on Tue, Dec 22, 2009 at 14:01:30 from 160.7.252.148

Thanks Burt, Jun & Josse!

Don't worry Josse you wouldn't be jealous of my nausea, tired-ness, feeling like i've been run over by a truck feeling :) I've been jealous of all the people running and I just have no energy to do it. :)

From Leandra on Tue, Dec 22, 2009 at 18:31:23 from 67.214.251.82

EEEEEEEK! Best Nephew ever! What is he doing just waving at the camera that is so so so cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

From Leandra on Tue, Dec 22, 2009 at 18:31:47 from 67.214.251.82

I love the little profile of him too, cute little button nose.

From Burt on Tue, Dec 22, 2009 at 18:47:21 from 206.19.214.144

I like his brain. He's going to be really smart, obviously taking after his uncle Burt.

From Nan Kennard on Tue, Dec 22, 2009 at 21:45:33 from 174.51.250.151

Wow! Congratulations! That is great news! I hope you're having a good pregnancy. Mine seemed to get a little easier each time (sickness wise), although the fatigue is relentless.

From josse on Wed, Dec 23, 2009 at 10:50:40 from 70.192.119.220

I know I am not looking forward to that but, you are almost half way and I haven't even started.

From Lyman on Wed, Dec 23, 2009 at 12:07:38 from 170.135.241.45

Congratulations! You have alot to celebrate this Christmas season.

From Lily on Wed, Dec 23, 2009 at 23:03:14 from 160.7.253.229

Congratulations Merri. You make cute kids. And another boy! I was wondering if you were for awhile now. I actually thought I saw a baby bump on you about 3 weeks ago at church. I remember saying something to Shawn about it. Of course I would never assume that with anybody and NEVER ask.

From Kelli on Wed, Dec 23, 2009 at 23:59:09 from 71.219.95.151

Congratulations!!! That is so very cool, and what an awesome picture of the baby "waving!!"

From Lyns on Sun, Dec 27, 2009 at 23:19:19 from 75.162.196.36

What a cute little guy already! Look at him waving at us!! I'm so Happy for you guys!!! My suspicions were right...
