Ok, so I managed to keep the secret for a week, but I can’t stand it any more, so I’m just going to have to tell you. I am cooking a little boy!! That’s right, a precious little baby boy!!
How blessed are we!! I confess that I was terrified of having a boy after what happened with Matthew, but then I realized that I really wanted this one to be a boy. I’m convinced that God is going to show me that not all boys grow up and break their Mum’s heart. ![]()
Last night Kenneth and I decided on a name for our little man, which we’re not telling anyone until he’s born. He will have a name of Swahili origin, just like Chausiku. If this bub had been a girl we were going to name her Amani, maybe the one we’ll have in 2011 will be a girl!! *gasp* Who said that!? ![]()
So there you have it, the big reveal. Bet most of you thought we were expecting another girl eh? I like to keep people in suspence, but this time it was bugging me and I just had to share our news.
I honestly can’t wait to meet our little boy. I talk a lot to Chausiku about her new baby brother, and tell her that she was in my tummy not that long ago. Of course she has no idea what I’m rambling on about, but she does go very quiet and touch my tummy, so who really knows how much they absorb into their little brains. She’s so precious and I can’t wait to experience life with two little ones.
Kaylah is very excited! She’s such a beautiful, wonderful big sister, bless her!

Yes, congrats to Zeno for guessing correctly
