WHAT??!?

Flashback:  So, Mommy and Daddy have been keeping a secret...  The time had finally come to share this news with the littlest members of our family!  Once we reached the end of my first trimester, we were ready to tell.  Two "early" Christmas packages awaited Logan and Will on that Saturday morning.  

They were quite happy to go ahead and get into their surprises...

 

You can see the look of disappointment on Will's face when he opened a T-shirt and not a toy! Ha!

But once we told them what was on their shirts, they were super excited.
Mommy and Daddy: Do you know what it means to be a big brother?
Will and Logan: Yes
M and D:  God has given us a baby, it's in Mommy's tummy- you are going to be big brothers!!
L and W:  WHAT???!!!

M and D: What will you name the baby?
W: Thomas
M and D: And what if it is a girl?
L: Percy

So, we're probably done asking for their input on names.

And quickly they were moving on and fascinated with the bubble wrap that was in the box!

As the days have gone on, our news is beginning to sink in.  They are very excited about being big brothers and are taking this new responsibility very seriously.  They keep saying how big they are and how much they've grown now that they are going to be brothers.  It is so sweet to hear them talk about how they are going to help mommy with the baby- help feed him/her, hold him/her and share their toys. I am looking forward to having two big helpers.  So thankful and so blessed!
