New Addition

After having kept the secret for a little while to make sure we would have time to tell everyone, it is now official, the Janus clan will expand as Rachel and I are expecting a happy event scheduled for June 27th! Yeap, Rachel is pregnant for a little more than 4 months now. Actually, she even felt the baby for the first time yesterday...on the other hand I will have to be a little more patient and wait a few more weeks to be able to feel it too.
We'll try to post updates of the pregnancy regularly. Next step is in two weeks from today with the next and last ultrasound (20 weeks) before the delivery. After which we will have to be very patient and wait for the day of birth to see the baby again.
We might lose some room in our apartment but we will gain so much more in our hearts and we can't wait to see our little one come into our world.
Santé!

I love your pictures! You look great Rach! And Fabien, yes, your apartment is going to shrink so fast, but it won't matter one bit. :) Hope to see you both soon.
xo,
Kel.

Thanks Dig', we are so excited. Maybe it will be a little guy and in a few years will be part of the Mudturtles clan too :) You're going to practice? I might stop by next week...I'm so not in shape!!!
Colleen, yes I'll try to keep the updates coming as often as possible. You already know that in 2 weeks we'll have the ultrasound so keep an eye on it :)
Kel, I know, the apartment will lose so much room, but luckily you are such good friends that we can store stuff at your place :) I hope to see you guys soon too, maybe before Elliot turns 12.
