No, We're NOT kidding!

Okay, so 7 weeks ago today, two days before Am and I were scheduled to leave the country to go to Belize, we found out some VERY unexpected news. Now before you ask, YES, we do know how this happens! (Save your obnoxious comments, please.) So obviously it wasn't too unexpected, but it was nonetheless. So December 3 this year, Hickman Baby #4 is tentatively set to arrive. Pray for Amber's health as well as the baby's. There's really not much else to say at this point. We are over the shock and we honestly can't wait for the newest little blessing to get here.
