BIG NEWS

I've been working on Gavin's Angel Post for a week now. But I thought that I would throw this post on till I'm ready for Gavin's Post. So the BIG NEWS....




Baby Larsen #3 is planning on joining our family this winter. This was my favorite picture of the baby. "Hi family!! Look at me wave!"


Profile. The baby looked good.

And finally, IT'S ANOTHER BOY!!!! That's right. Baby BOY #3 is coming! We decided to find out what we were having on Gavin's Angel Day. ( I feel guilt about it now, but what's done is done). We managed to keep the baby a secret from Jaron's Family till Gavin's Angel Day. And this is how we told them....


Notice the balloons? Gavin's Favorite Color is Green, so that is what we release, Green Balloons. This time we brought 4 Green, pink and blue balloons. We passed them out and every one wrote there message. Then came the following dialogue

"If you have a green balloon, give it a kiss and send it up to Gavin."
-they let go the green balloons.

"If you have a pink balloon, give it a kiss and send it up to Gavin."
-they let go the pink balloons

"If you have a blue balloon, give it a kiss and say thank you to Gavin for sending us another baby brother this winter."

So, SURPRISE EVERYONE!!! We haven't figured out a womb name yet. (so any suggestions?....p.s a womb name is what we call the baby until he's born. It can be funny, or whatever. Gavins- Mr. Wiggle. Sawyer-J.J for Joy in the Journey. Baby #3-????)

Congratulations! What a cute way to announce your pregnancy. Glad to hear the baby is growing well. I love the waving picture, so cute! I can't believe you have kept it a secret this long, wow! Have you been sick with this little guy?

I can't think of anything creative to suggest a womb name.

Balloon Boy? Congratulations! We are really excited for you guys. Have you been sick? If so, how did you keep it a secret?

Congrats to you guys! I like the waving picture. Ummm, the first womb name that popped into my mind was "little turkey" I'm not sure why... maybe I'm hungry. What about "howdy doody" because he was waving. Oh man, stop me right there, that one is worse than the first one. Well, let me know when you think of a good one. Oh, and I need your address so that I can send you that check.

I'm excited for you guys! Three boys! Wow! It can be rough to have these exciting things mixed in with the hard times, like angel day anniversaries. You're a trooper.

What fantastic news!! I can tell this little guy has lots of personality to wave at you like that! A huge congrats to your family. Brothers are forever friends.

Peggy said...

Meredith said...

That is wonderful- congratulations! The first picture is so perfect- that little guy really is just waving for the camera! So happy for you. :)

We are so excited for you and Jaron. Way to keep it a secret till you even know the gender. I happen to be looking at my friend Andrea Larsen's blog today and she quoted your Lazarus story. So I came here to see how your family is. We haven't really given our babies a womb name but we took a risk and told our kids the name of #6 (coming in 8 weeks), with a promise not to tell family till she is born. You are such a strong woman!
