I AM SO EXCITED to be the first to comment!!!
HOORAY~ congrats!

You two will be the best parents. I wish I was going to be close by when your bundle arrives.... but once you move back to New York, I want to meet your sweet baby. :)

YAY! I'm just so thrilled for you.

definitely the chili ;)!

AWESOME news, CONGRATULATIONS times a million!

There is not much that makes me more giddy than hearing of a little babe growing and soon to be born :).

Cami said...

Wha-hoo!!! Definitely the BABY!! I'm so happy for you guys!!

Well I've never had Ben's Chili, but I bet it included frozen babies-that will win every time. Speaking of babies (see how I did that?), we are VERY excited. So are you doing the surprise gender baby (for the record I hate that, but some people love it) and the surprise name (hate that too...). I will support you in your decisions (to your face). Can't wait to hopefully see you soon. God Bless the children.

HEATHER!! (and Ben, of course!)!!!

I AM SO EXCITED FOR YOU!

And I just sent you an email and didn't even mention this news, b/c I hadn't read about it. I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU, congratulations!!

That is so wonderful. You guys will be such wonderful parents.

I vote a boy. (boys are the best, yes?)

Hooray for your baby :)

I'm going to have to go with Ben's ward chili award. I had no idea he could make chili... and to win at a ward chili cook off, that is impressive. You must be so proud!

The Barkers said...

Oh my gosh Heather!!!! Congratulations! That is so exciting. I am so happy for you guys! You will make a great mother.

Erica said...

Congrats you guys! This is so exciting! I am definitely voting for your child over the chili! This is big guys! Now I really hope we get to see you!

Kirby said...

Whoop, whoop!! We get to have you as neighbors for a little while AND you're having a baby?! This is too exciting!!!:)

Congrats! I am so excited for you guys! It will be nice to have Phoenix weather in November when the baby arrives...Are you going to find out if it is a boy or a girl?

Mortensen Family said...

Hmmm...That's tough! I'd have to taste the chili to really decide which is more exciting. By the way, we are going to be in Arizona in December. Please tell me that you are staying in Phoenix for Christmas! I want to see you!!!

Burke family said...

We are sooo excited for you too! And can't wait to meet this little one. But why do you have to move so far away!? Missing you already!

Liz said...

congratulations! we can't wait to hear updates.

Nikki, Cody, and Tessa said...

Congratulations you two (soon to be 3)!!!! That is fabulous news!

Laura Roberts said...

Oh I am so excited for you!!!! That is great!! I can't wait to hear more of the details as time goes by!

So good to hear from you Heather! I know, there will probably be some trying days and months ahead, but it definitely is a breather to be past those 2 yrs. of bookwork. He's already loving the ER! You're right, much more fun to be in DOING the stuff now.

Way to go on the chili, Ben, that's a great accomplishment too, because those are hard competitions to beat! :)

What the heck!! How am I only now reading this post? Congratulations Heather! That is so happy and exciting! I dare you to wear your old Jody dresses for maternity church clothes (you know how they're empire waist, they could work for maternity for a little while). That would be awesome!!! Congratulations again, I can't wait to see some pregnant pictures of you and find out if it's a boy or girl and what will his/her name be (April is a good name if you're looking for suggestions). I think it's time to update your blog now.

April said...

PS - My husband makes REALLY YUMMY (like the best I've ever tasted) chili too. Who could have guessed that our husbands would have that in common?

Missy said...

Did you know we read your blog? I heard the news second hand and thought it a big deal. November eh? Perhaps the AZ heat will recede for your last trimester. Burlington isn't being so kind to me in mine. P.S. TIME TO POST AGAIN.
