It's no mystery to me!

I have never been very fond of keeping secrets. It's not that I like to spoil things. I just want others to be as excited as I am about things. Proper etiquette asks otherwise. Proper etiquette says that there is a time and place for everything. I suppose secrets go into that. Going to church on Sunday is especially entertaining when teaching the Sunbeams. They simply have to share all sorts of secrets. I enjoy their spontaneous kiddie kwips-- and consider adding them to our very own kiddie kwips here. There's a number of things I learn that make me smile a little bit more on Sundays. This coming week Danny and I are teaching the Sunbeams again. We LOVE to volunteer in Primary. I'm sure the presidency is grateful for our help too. Our secret with the little ones? Animal crackers, crayons, and baby Ham to entertain them with giggles. Can you believe it? Ham is going to be one year old in less than two weeks! That cute little chunk is a climber. I guess I need to start on the pinata. He's getting recycled toys for his gift. I'll post about that later. And if I have anyone left, or even just for you Dad, I'll be posting kid pictures this weekend. They've all be growing like crazy!

And if you didn't catch the mysterious hidden clue... stay tuned for future clues.

Oh Nikki! Congrats! I was so wondering how you were doing, and I'm glad that this is the reason. You are such an awesome mom. Any child coming to you is so blessed! Hope your morning sickness is at a minimum!

Congratulations Nikki!! You are a subtle little bugger aren't you!! I love ya though. You have the cutest family. When are you due?? That is exciting. I am the same wa about secrets, I mean I can keep them if I have to, but I would rather share the good news. In this case, it is your news to share, so I will keep my mouth shut with a HUGE grin on my face!! GRIN.......

feywriter said...

Congrats! What a creative way to share the news. :-)

Leslie said...

Sheesh! I'm going to have to have twins too to catch up - or maybe triplets by the time we get on with business cause you'll be up to #6 by then! I'm so excited for you! I'm sure this baby will be every bit as adorable as the rest of the kids!

I don't think I could be any slower. I saw the bold words but didn't think to read them alone. If it wasn't for other people's comments, I would never catch up. When people started dropping the hints in the first few comments, I was like, she didn't say what the secret was just that she was going to. I must have read it like four times, trying to catch on. I am not smart.

Oh yeah, congratulations. That is really cool news. I really hope and pray that you will be well and can skip hospital time this time around.

I'm so happy for you. You need to come up to Spokane to talk my hubby into baby #3 for me. He thinks our two boys are enough, but I would love another one. I, too, hope you manage to stay out of the hospital for this pregnancy.
