New Life

Whenever us Lohses decide to return from our Asian adventure,  one thing has been confirmed.  We will be coming back heavy one little Lohse. That's right...another Lohse baby is growing and getting ready to join us around October 1st in this crazy place we call home!

We just told the kids last week and they had some interesting comments.  Showing them the ultrasound picture, Sophia was convinced it was a frog.  Once we told them it was a baby, they then started listing off all of the fun facts about babies.  According to Eric, our thinker, babies don't have teeth, they can't talk, and they cry alot, especially when they are scared.  Sophia, completely in line with her more aggressive nature, said that babies cry when you hit them in the face.  Yeah, this should be fun. ;O)

But we are all very excited.  Eric wants a brother, Sophia wants a sister.  Unfortunately, one of them is going to be disappointed.  Upon recommendation from my mom, I am going to document this pregnancy through the eyes of my children.  Their perspective and comments are hilarious and worth remembering.

So now we are off to exploring the medical system here in China.  So far we have been pleasantly surprised with the facilities, doctors, and nursing staff and are planning on having the baby here in China. 

But we are just taking it one day at a time, enjoying life and thanking God for all of the wonderful things we have been blessed with.
