About three to four years ago Greg and I attended 13 weddings in one summer. It seemed like it was the thing to do. The summer after the number dropped to 8 but still seemed like a lot. These days we usually go to two - three weddings per year.
Now the thing to do is have a baby. Have I mentioned how many people I know who are going to or have already had babies this year? Well, the number is high. Here we go, count with me.

That's 22 babies! Wow! Praise God for the lives He has created. What a wonderful time for so many families to go from two to three and for others to be blessed with siblings already. I know that I am looking forward to meeting my little lady and I'm sure the rest of these families are just as excited for their little ones to come along. Just thought I'd say congratulations to all these couples who are expecting children! What a tremendous blessing from God! We will pray for you that everything with the rest of the pregnancies go well and that the babies would grow to know the love of their Savior! Congrats!!!
(if I inadvertantly missed anyone, accept my appologies...post a comment and I'll put you on the list. I will however blame it on "pregnancy absentmindedness")

Down here, it is something in the water. At school, there were 9 babies born to faculty families all in one year. That doesn't count our second one here. 8 of those will be in the same class for sure and then the 9th could possibly be in the class above all the others. There are so many kids running around, but believe me it is nice, there is never a shortage of kids for Maddie to play with.
