My Christmas List - A 2009 tax deduction for Maybe Reagan Sue or Carter Hindle...

Much to our excitement several weeks ago we discovered that we are expecting baby #2. Brooke had an ultrasound last Wednesday and the projected due date is 12/29/2009. If something isn't happening by then I am going to serve her spicy foods, drive on bumpy roads,... whatever is necessary to try and bring along a 2009 delivery. If my math is right KJ and "new baby" will be approximately 17 months apart and 2 years seperated in school.

Momma has been quite tired growing a baby and chasing after a growing 10 month-old but thankfully has largely avoided the constant heartburn that Kennedy provided. This time we have decided to let the baby's sex be a surprise and have keenly been reviewing the list of president's names for potential consensus. Boy names are much tougher for us than girls but I am pulling for Adams since Lincoln sounds too "ethnic":) Brooke gave a resounding No soup for you type veto to Adams but I have 7 months to get the name to grow on her.

Thanks to Aunt Kristi we had a 10% Baby Depot coupon that was about to expire so we picked up another crib on Saturday. We are anxiously awaiting to see how the 2 kids in one room scenario works with Kayla and baby #2.

3 days and counting until our trip to Kentucky/Ohio and 10 days until waterpark heaven. Woohoooooo.

Kennedy won't let anyone take pictures of her anymore as she tries to take the camera away so it may only be sleeping baby pictures going forward for awhile.

Wow! Congratulations, you guys! Baby #2 for you guys, too, huh? I'll be interested to hear if it's little girl #5 for the ever-growing Johnson clan...

Brooke - wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy!

Ryan - take care of your girls and keep us posted on baby names. I'll be crossing my fingers that you get your tax deduction. ;)

Yeah, so the word is out. One of these days my parents really want to see Kennedy, so if you have a minute drop by, now that dad is retired he's usually home, hopefully finishing the house. Congrats again, cheers to another healthy and happy baby!!

My teacher posted my first song on youtube, I sent you a link Brooke.
