And then there were 5

That's right, I'm pregnant and soon to be the owner of 5 children! Ben and I feel so blessed! God's timing is perfect. I'm due sometime Feb. 2. I had horrible morning sickness with Memory and that hasn't started yet. I've just had pretty minor sickness. So here's hoping it stays that way.

This timing is kind of crazy because when we found out we were pregnant a few weeks ago, Ben said, "We were just getting this 4 kids thing down." So just when you get too comfortable God shakes things up a bit. I think both Ben and I had resigned and moved on from having another child at this point. So to be given this was quite a shock. A good shock, though.

Hey there!
As we benefited so much from Dave Ramsey, we used his kids program with our kiddos. We encourage saving, sharing and then spending...although at times it is easier to think about the spending! =)
We started about two-three years ago when keaton was interested. We have slacked off a bit on the little envelopes and stuff that came with the kids kit, but we still encourage giving at church. We started giving them a penny or 10 cents for different chores along with other rewards like games w/mommy, etc.
Hope this helps with the questions you asked!

thank you so much for hosting sonny! he was so impressed with your family and i can't wait for him to get home so we can talk more about it. weird how blogging can connect you even when you haven't talked or seen someone for so long.
i am feeling MUCH better and thank God for it everyday. did you end up getting as sick this time? i'm so happy that you will be adding yet another special little one to your family.
