I can not believe I will be doing this again, but I sure can't wait! Yes I am pregnant! Bill and I are very shocked, and we were not planning on having any more children. I will be 35 on April 23, and he is gone ALL THE TIME with work, but obviously God's plan is bigger than ours. I just gave all of my maternity clothes away, and donated all of Allie's bottles, and a crib, to Goodwill. It always seems to happen that way,doesn't it?! I am getting mixed responses from family and friends (because I will now have 5 kids), but all I can think about are those ladies that can't even have children. I also think about my blog friends Lori and Carolina Girl that have been waiting and waiting for that special little baby girl, that God has led them to adopt. This reminds me that I am truly blessed to not have any trouble getting pregnant. I want to take this opportunity to thank God for blessing me with 4 beautiful, healthy daughters, and I pray daily for baby #5. I have been blessed more times than I deserve, and for that, I thank God daily! Have a great week ladies.

I also want to have a poll to guess boy or girl! I would bet on pink !

Congrats again!! My suggestion: 50 Pink Piggies or 40 Pink Piggies and 10 Blue!!
I am so happy for you and your family. You have such a perfectly beautiful family and it's going to be even bigger! What a blessing! I bet it'll be a boy. I just have a feeling! Congratulations! :)
I am kinda a lurker here and there, but wanted to tell you CONGRATS. I would say that whether this was number one or ten. YES God's plan is bigger than us and everything happens for a reason. Your daughters are beautiful and another lovely added would be a huge blessing to your family. Don't get to mad at the extended family responses because they are just shocked as you said were not expecting this news everyone will come around you'll see. Love is a powerful thing. I myself will send prayers for you a safe, easy pregnancy and for a healthy baby and may even ask for a color change this time maybe some blue allowed in the house. Congrats again on your glorious news.
Congratulations!
Congratulatons!
My mom had my twin brothers at 39. They are numbers 4+5. She had just given everyhing away...
Congrats girl! My SIL just had a baby boy at 45. It's amazing what God does for us! :)
We are so very happy for you!!!
God Bless, Amanda
Congratulations! :)
You and your family are precious, and I think a little *boy* may be in the works!
I am so excited for you!!! What great news :) You are such a great mom and this baby will be so blessed to be your child! Can't wait to hear all about it :) xoxo
First time commenting here, but want to wish you and your family the best! How exciting. I love reading your blog, you have a beautiful family!
Wow and Congrats. Mmaybe you will get luicky this time @ and get yourself a little boy. Boys sure are fun, but another beautiful little girl would be great too!
Congrats!!!! I am so excited for you!!! I so hope you get a boy this time - having one of each myself i think everyone should be able to raise a boy and girl - they are both SO much fun!!!!
Congratulations! I am soooo excited for you! I think this surprise baby is a BOY and that must be the reason you gave all of your stuff away! You might need blue! HA HA!
I hope you have a fun and relaxing pregnancy!
CONGRATS!!!!! How exciting! You make beautiful children and make mommyhood look effortless! Five will be no problem for you! and yes...God does know what he is doing!!
I know where your coming from...I was caught off guard with my last two pregnancies. The third one was a complete shocker and proof birthcontrol doesn't always work. My reaction wasn't the best, and my families reaction was half and half. But I would not change a thing. It's hard, but it just works out. Some how some way it just does. Congrats! Babies are the best blessings ever.
CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a blessing!!!! We are on the other side of that where it took us 2 1/2 years to get pregnant with my daughter and we have been trying 2 years now for another. but God is amazing ad will bless all of us when the time is right...

YEAH!!!!! Congratulations!! I am SO excited for you guys! I am one of 6 kids, and it is STILL a blast. Of course growing up was a little crazy, of course people still ask my parents if we are "all theirs" (yes) and how many are step children (zero), but I wouldn't trade any of my siblings!! And, the last two were "surprise blessings" - my mom was 38 and 40 during her pregnancies. You will be GREAT! Congrats!!
You are truly blessed! Congratulations to you and your family.
Blessings to you all!! :)
melissa
congrats! I think it will be twin boys! LOL~
WOW!! That is awesome and such a blessing. You are not too old--I am older than you and would love to have a 3rd. You have to be a spectacular mom to have 5--my 3 year old is trying my patience right now!! Congratulations!!!!
I just stumbled across your blog, but I wanted to say congrats! Can you image what it would be like to be a boy with four older sisters?
Congrats. I have been lurking for a while and wanted to stop and say what a blessing.

I am a new blogger and first time commenter. I just love your blog. Your family is so goregous! Congratulations on the baby! I hope it is a boy, they are so wonderful! I am excited to be an official blogger and not a lurker anymore! :)
God is good. So happy for you! We highly recommend 5 kids!! Get yourself a boy and we'll have even ratios! Praying peace for you and wonderful supportive family and friends! I have to agree with you as we've felt overwhelmed by the size of our family at times and see so many who cant conceive. Indeed every one is a BLESSING!!
Congratulations! I love reading your blog. I was surprised to see your title "I need a new blog name" because I love it! THEN, when I read your post...I understood what you meant. Why not try this for awhile...
40 Pink Piggies Waiting on an "Oink"
What a blessing. Congrats! I'm sure you'll come up with the perfect name.
40 pink piggies waiting on an oink is really cute! Congrats on the baby!! Wish you all the best. Your family will come around- how can they not to such adorable kids!! :) Take care.
Congrats to you and your hubby:) I think you should wait to re-name your blog until your new little blessing arrives:) You never know, it could be twins...LOL sorry, just kiddin'... whatever you choose will be great:)
I've been following your blog for a little while...but just had to comment and tell you congrats! I have 5 and I too am so blessed. We shocked the family too! Your girls are all so beautiful!!! I love all the bows!!!!!

You are so very blessed!
Congrads! I am turning 42 in December and imagine my surprise a couple of weeks ago when the doctor said "Mrs. Fields I have some good new you are not going thru menapose your PREGNANT" I about hit the floor!
God's plan is always better than our own!
I just found your blog...and I have to smile because I, too, have four precious daughters. AND am expecting our 5th baby (though only a handful of people know at this).
So you're thinking it'll be another girl? I have to admit, I HOPE It is. I love me some girlies. :D
