Baby # 3

So there is a new baby Howell on the way, and in a very small way it is unfortunate that it does not belong to my sister in law. That would be mean to her since her little one is only 10 months old and she deserves more time in between babies. However, the SHOCK, joy, gladness and supper craziness belongs to ME!!

We were not planning or expecting to get pregnant again so soon. We were hoping to wait until we got back to Alaska and a more normal life. Traveling across country, in our Subaru, with three kids was not a plan of ours. SURPRISE, now were looking for a bigger car. Our car of choice is a Honda Odyssey (mini van) with AWD. They however our top of the line mini vans and hard to come by a somewhat new one for under $10,000 (we would really like to keep it under $10,000). We have however found one that we think is a good (actually great) deal, but now to get hold of the seller and go through all the hoops of buying a car. If anyone has a van they just want to get rid of, let us know!! :)

Luke would like a brother like himself and not a sister like Hannah. It doesn't help that Hannah is a very annoying sister at this time, always getting into his stuff and messing with his lined up animals. Hopefully they will get along better before the baby comes! Luke told be the other day, "Mommy the baby in your tummy is mean and making you sick, when he comes out he will be mad at you and you will cry." (walks off)

Need more ginger ale and sleep!
