Three is Company and Four is a Crowd

We found out back in October that we are expecting another little one, I am due the first week of July. We are so excited for another sweet spirit to join our family. This pregnancy has been very different from the first, I was sick all day every day in my first trimester. I lost about 6 lbs and could not gain until just recently. I started feeling all the aches and pains much earlier and we found out on February 21st that we are having a BOY!! Alan and I were very very surprised, we both expected another girl. Alan was on cloud nine all day. We are going to name him William Draper Sheffer. William is a family name and Draper is because Alan and I got married in the Draper temple, we hope this name will be very special to him and he will be able to pass it down. I am getting close to the end of my second trimester, I am 22 weeks pregnant and feeling great. He moves around a lot and is much lower than what Lizzy was.
We have been training Lizzy about how to take care of babies. She does super good, she gets her baby doll and rocks it and sings to it. She makes sure to feed the baby and wraps a blanket around it. She is going to be the best big sister!! More updates will be coming. . .
