    Congratulations to the three of you! Wonderful news and a very touching way to tell all of us. When we found out we were expecting #2 our oldest asked for a baby sister for her birthday (not Christmas which was quickly approaching) before we told her about the new baby. I told her that her wish may just come true, that she was going to be a big sister. And sure enough we gave her a baby sister a week before her 3rd birthday. Rown must be very excited as must you!

  59. Tracy

    07.17.12

    Jen, love, love, LOVE this video!! I even teared up. *sniffle* I’ve been reading your blog for a very long time but haven’t been able to for the last four or so months and have not commented in a really long time either. I wanted to say that I think you’re amazing, you and Kev are clearly very much in love, and all three of you, soon to be four, make such a beautiful family. I admire your approach to parenting and life in general. Congratulations and thank you for letting us all come along with you on your adventures!! <3
