    Congratulations. I wondered when you announced your stay in Bozeman if there was an underlying reason behind it! :) I like the creative way you announced it to the blog-o-sphere!

    Congratulations!! Such a cute little girl and a very cute way to tell her she’s gonna be a big sister!!

    It seems so many people I know personally or follow online are getting pregnant or just had babies within the last month or two. I just found out last week that our first little one is on the way as well!! We are pretty stoked about it and are just praying that the pregnancy will go well and the baby will be healthy.

    Again, congrats on the new little addition to the family!!

    Bella’s reaction is priceless! And my favorite part: “Bunk beds! Great idea, Mama!” How wonderful to have this precious conversation recorded to remember always!

    I confess I have been following your blog for about a year now (ever since i found you on a google image search of dreadlocks!). I have found your blog very inspirational. I am a brand new mom now, and so finally felt I should come out of hiding to say CONGRATULATIONS! I am very excited to hear your good news, i think motherhood is awesome. By the way, have you ever considered hypnosis for birth? I had a great experience with it… =)

    hey sara- this was just beautiful. i have happy tears in my eyes. i feel so priveleged to be able to have seen this and shared this with you all. i do wish it was subtitled or captioned though, since i’m deaf and can’t hear whats being said. i could tell by the glow on both yours and bella’s face and the tummy rubs, the excitement what was going on though (:

    i could never comment on your blog via my sidekick, but i’m actually using a computer at the moment and figured i’d come out from unintentional lurkdom. (i’m “bella terra” on flickr– dreaded together/sister circle)

    its funny you know, i had a sort of intuition about your family a couple of weeks ago and it was like i knew you were with child. kind of weird, now that i’ve learned its true! i figured i’d visit your site and see if you’d written anything new and lo & behold— (:

    this is turning into a semi-novel(hah), but anyhow, i wanted to send my best wishes your way. congratulations to you all on the new edition that’ll surely be a blessing to experience this wonderful journey of life with! lots of love and happiness, ~me.

    Congratulations! I have enjoyed following your blog for the past year or so. I found it through Simplicity Soup – Rachel. We go to the same church. My husband and I are expecting as well. This will be our first child and will be due around June 2! Hope you have a happy and healthy 6 more months:)

    I’m a lurker…my folks RV full time and your RV makes me just plain happy.

    I am SO not the organizer you are, but I wish that I was every day.

    So how are you feeling??? Slow blog posts make me think you might not be on top of your game. Just wanted you to know I’ve been praying for you all for the last couple months.

    Congratulations, Bella. Being a big sister is awesome…and I know too, cuz I’ve got 3 girls of my own.

    I am SO excited for you guys! I don’t know if you remember me — I’m Henry’s mom and we met at the Outpost in Milwaukee last year. Bella is so grown-up now — she’ll be an awesome big sister!

    Heartfelt congratulations! And thank you for sharing this special moment. It brought back lots of fun memories of telling my kids when they were going to get a baby brother or sister. Precious times indeed!

    Blessings to you and your beautiful family!
