Uh..... NO!!
Okay, so we have just become aware that rumors are flying that we are pregnant and that we are not only pregnant but apparently far enough along to know that we are having a girl.
I think that people's imaginations are running away with them. They must really want us to have a baby girl! :)
We find this absolutely hilarious, kind of (I'll explain that next) considering we are not even thinking about having another baby right now. Not even considering it! We have talked about it and have decided that for now we are very happy with our 2 boys and that they keep us busy enough. So, we figure if the desire hits us in a year or two we'll talk about it then and see how we feel about it. We're not ruling it out yet, we just don't think we're ready at this time to add to our family.
The part that is not hilarious about this to me as a woman who is just like every other woman in the world and totally self conscious about my body is the wondering "Did someone see me and think that I not only looked pregnant but looked at least 5 months pregnant (the common time in a pregnancy to find out the sex of your baby)?" This is a bit bothersome to me considering I have lost about 80 lbs. in the last year or so since Kayden was born and I am running 30 miles a week and currently training for a half marathon.
We have no idea how these rumors got started (or how they spread so quickly for that matter!) and we are flattered that people obviously think that we make beautiful children and therefore want us to make another one, a girl this time! But we are pretty happy with our family right now and I am working too hard on me and on training right now to even think about wrecking my body (not that it wasn't 100% worth it and I wouldn't trade any of my imperfections caused by pregnancy for my 2 perfect boys!) to have another baby right now.
So we'll let you know if we reconsider anytime soon or if we decide in the future that we want to add another blessing (by the grace of God) to our already adorable and totally perfect (I'm a little biased) family.
In the meantime, maybe we can get some comments on this post if I pose this question....
What do you think? Should we (someday) add to our family?
*Disclaimer - Your thoughts and opinions probably won't sway our decision but it's always interesting to hear what other people think, especially when it's our closest family and friends!

I think you should have 3 or 4 more. I thoroughly enjoy the stories and pictures that you send. I think of Percy the train and laugh uncontrollably still.
