Houston, we have a Heartbeat!

Today I heard one of the sweetest sounds a mother can hear... the heartbeat of the growing child inside her. Yep, I'm pregnant! Child #6 will be arriving in late April. Child #3 (as usual) has had nothing but sweet things to say. Two hundred and ten days is too long to wait for him. He is hugging my tummy, talking to the baby, promising to take care of him or her, and asking for more because he "just loves babies!" He would be happy with ten or a zillion more babies in the house. I wouldn't. Child #4 looked a little confused, asked where his sister was (she was napping), and then asked what the baby's name was. He decided it should be called "Apayo." Does that mean something in a different language?
