is that Bjorkbabe #4 is a comin'!!!
(love that cute little foot kicking up)We are super thrilled, even though I'm still having a hard time wrapping my mind around the fact that I'm pregnant. You'd think I'd be over that by my fourth. To be honest, I wasn't initially super excited about the idea of getting pregnant again. I had just reached a huge weight loss goal, and really, chasing E Tom around has worn me out! BUT as soon as I peed on that beautiful little stick and saw the line, there were tears of joy! Complete joy! Babies are awesome. Awesomely tiring and grey-hair making. But awesomely adorable and inexplicable-joy giving.
Due date is September 23rd, making me a little over 12 weeks along. I'm expanding rapidly and feeling medium-ish. I've had moments of feeling pretty sick (even causing me to pull off to the side of the road to throw up), but thankfully those moments have been very few and far between. The main issues have been my grouchiness and the urges to cry about 20 times a day for absolutely no reason. It really is ridiculous.
Reese wrote this on our board the other night after one of my super not-so-great moments. She was likely doing it out of fear.
And here is the cutest little video of when we told the girls on Valentine's Day. We did a scavenger hunt that started in the car (we were coming in from having dinner out, hence the coats), and this is them reading the last clue:
Happy are we! (Unless, of course, I'm crying ;)

Maybe I understand pregnancy hormones a little too well, because watching that video totally made me tear up! I have no idea why, it was just super sweet to see them so excited! CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Congratulations! I'm due right at the same time as you!!!! :) Fun times. Isn't it nice to be at the end of the first trimester?
Congratulations on number 4! Such a fun way to tell your little ones!
"For real?" I love it! Congratulations, Rachel! I was just thinking about whether or not your baby #4 would be the same gender as Cynthia's, just like the other three. Love the video of your cute kids. I'm so excited for you guys!
Wow...so excited for you!! You sure do make adorable children and I'm sure this one will be just as cute! Does this mean I'm next? It seems like we have our babies pretty close together but no exciting news on our end just yet!!
Your kids are too cute! Congrats! I feel like I must be totally psycho because I'm starting to get baby hungry myself...but I probably need to potty train my oldest kids first... Very excited for you!
Congratulations! What happy news!! and what a cute way to tell your kiddos!!!
I love your blog posts! Your awesomely tired and awesome joy sentence made me think that I need to have one more bebe!
I can't wait to see if it's a boy or girl and I just love in the video when Claire does the mini jump and shout!
Yay!!
Congratulations! So exciting! I too love babies. All the cuddles, smiles, and giggles just melt my heart. Will you find out the sex or have it be a surprise? I am very happy for you and your adorable family.
Congratulations! What fun news to come across!
I can hardly wait the next 7 weeks to find out what this baby is. That's always my favorite part. I still can't believe you're going to have 4! And you're most of the way through the roughest part already. Yay for that!
hooray! that is way too great...congrats!
Congratulations!!!!! This is truely wonderful news. I hope you are feeling great and that the crying subsides :-)

Such happy, happy news!! Congratulations!! :) So happy for you! :)
I'm so, so excited for you! You DO make the cutest babies and you and Tom are such amazing, amazing parents. I loved that cute video. I cannot believe how big your kiddos are--and Reese is quite the little reader!!! I laughed so hard at the end when they asked if that was it. My kid's would've totally been expecting candy or something despite just finding out they're having a sibling. It cracked me up!!!! Congrats!!!!!
Oh, HOORAY!!!! Congratulations!! I was so grateful for your super sweet comment yesterday, Rachel! It sincerely made my day. I have read your blog OFTEN in the past and feel kindred with you =) But I haven't been reading hardly any blogs lately (because I'm semi-overwhelmed almost all of the time =)...so I was so glad your comment got me over here to see your happy news! And those darling pink sisters!! =) Best, best wishes to you this pregnancy! Such a wonderful little family you have! Thanks again for your kindness!
I have been reading since it was Reese's pieces! Congratulations on baby #4!!! Excited to read about all the antics and stories of the latest little one!!!
Woohoo! Your kids are so cute - can't wait to meet another cute little Bjorkman. Congrats!
