In my favorite poem by Robert Frost, Nothing Gold Can Stay, he reminds us that like the seasons of nature, life is one season melting into another, and quickly fading away. This is my attempt to document each season in my life and my family.

Correction: Just the FIVE of us.

Me, Kyra, Elijah, Owen, and Baby makes five.

Yep, I found out this morning that the newest little Harmon is on it’s way. We’re so happy!

I know a lot of you will probably think I’m crazy for telling everyone so soon, but I’m going to celebrate every day with this baby. I really have no reason to expect there to be problems with this pregnancy, just because of the last one. I had three healthy, problem free pregnancies before my miscarriage, and I am going to believe that my fifth pregnancy will be healthy and problem free until I have some reason to believe otherwise. So, celebrate with me, friends. I’m going to have a baby!

And just because one of my brothers asked this question today…yes, I do know what causes this. It’s that thing where I have a hot husband, we love each other a lot, and we just so happen to think our kids are awesome. So, yeah. We understand. We kinda like it. ;)

I’m going to the doctor in the morning for blood work. I’d appreciate your prayers that everything goes well. 

 
This is me on the very first day I knew I was pregnant. It was taken late at night when I was tired with no make-up on, but, nevertheless, under that fat unicorn shirt is a wee little answer to prayer.
