Ethnic Sunday took us to Indian cuisine tonight. We had a wonderful meal at Viceroy, very close to home.
Lucia was a pill and threw water on the floor, fussed, cried, screamed and did not eat much. Ricardo was a bit flustered with the chaos, but I reminded him, we are six, we are messy, we are loud, we are US. I love the us we have become, even though it's messy, loud and chaotic. I love this brood like crazy and hold them with open hands to their Heavenly Father. They are His and I gasp at the privilege I have to hold them for as long as He chooses. My heart is full.
Oh and my womb is, too! I'm not sure if there are any readers out there that don't know our big news! We're expecting baby #5!!
I'm 11 weeks tomorrow, due in May and we're so excited! Tonight at dinner, Diego said "I can't wait to hear the baby cry. That is just the cutest sound ever!"

What's that saying about well-behaved women seldom making history? Remind Ricardo of that one:) Spunky, spirit-filled girls are my fave! Love you all and can't wait to love number 5!
