Creation

I don't claim to be very creative. In fact, I find myself looking to others to even spark creations in my head. However, our latest creation could not have been inspired by others--this one took some effort and patience on mine and Russ' behalf. May we introduce to you whom Grace has deemed "Baby Rhino" ... Coming to pictures on blog November 4th. Yes we are preggers!! We are three months along and I am already feeling big, gulp. Gracie's only stipulation to the joyous event is that (and I quote), "It better be a girl, I am thinking in my brain it will be a girl!" We think she is pre-planning a soriorty for later years.

Both our children have come as such a wonderful surprise in our lives, we are humbled yet again.

Oh Tommi.....I am so excited for you guys. I know you already knew that, but really. I just love how Gracie handles this news, she cracks me up. LOVE YOU!

Liz Hymas said...

Ps. You know my friend Emily (who has Chase)? You and her are due within a couple days of each other! Crazy.

Alisha said...

Congrats! I knew that you would be blessed to carry a child. Good luck with everything. Keep me updated with everything! Love you!

Liz Hymas said...

Seriously Tommi? I don't think you could ever look bad, you always have a way of looking cute no matter how many days it's been since you've showered...SO I don't think you will have any problems looking your absolute BEST during this pregnancy. If anyone should be embarrassed to go to the beach with you, it should be ME! (The only problem is that I don't care what I look like at this moment, and by the time you reach this part of your pregnancy, you will still look amazing.)
Ps. This sign totally reminds me of our gay experience last year. If you would like to know of another name I found in this small town...please feel free to give me a call, as I don't think it's appropriate to post on your blog.
PPs. This has been the longest comment EVER!

Wow Tommi and Russ! We are so excited for you both. Who said prayers are not answered..we'll continue to pray that things will go well during the pregnancy and that Gracie will love her baby brother. We love you all and miss you so.... much!!

Brandi said...

Oh Tommi Congratulations!!! (Congrats to Russ too). We are sooooooooooooooooo thrilled for you. Ditto to everything everyone has already said. I'm sure you will be one of those tiny little pregnant women that don't even look pregnant from the back. Basically, you'll probably (at nine months) look how I look when I'm bloated. ;) Keep us updated--can't wait to see pictures of the new little Hymas. And I love all Gracie's comments--I'm so entertained by her. lol.

You know children have a way of knowing what's on the way.Colten told us Sariah was coming and "it's a girl" before we even knew we were pregnant. It's been years of labor and your fruits are at hand:) Like I said before, we are SO excited and can't wait to meet him/her!

Bonnie said...

TOMMI!!! YEA!!! I am so super excited for you, I have chills! I am sorry I haven't checked your blog for a long time, but what an awesome surprise! You are such a good mommy, I can't wait to see your sweet little one. Wow, I know this is such a dream come true, what an awesome little family you have. We love you!!!
