Scientifically this is impossible, but we are having baby #5 in March! What crazy people have 5 kids (HAHA to those of you that do)? I'm feeling overwhelmed and did not really believe it until I heard the heartbeat today. I don't know how we are going to handle this, we have 4 amazing kids and I figured that was enough for our family. God must have had other plans for us- even the midwife was amazed I was pregnant when I told her what happened. Here are some questions you may want to ask-
are you excited? not sure yet
are you patient enough to handle 5 kids? um, no
are there going to be any more surprises? absolutely not, we will be going to extreme measures to make sure of that
what is your due date? March 13th
boy or girl? we might be finding out on Tuesday if they can tell! I think boy since we have 3 already and that just seems to be what we have in this family (even our dog is a boy), Kim thinks girl
do you have any names picked out? Julia Diane (my middle name and my mom's middle name) for a girl, no boy names yet since we sort of ran out of those
do your kids know yet? no, we might tell them on Tuesday if we find out, or wait until I am too big to hide it any longer
Anything I am missing?

Congratulations!
I have a question to add -- Will any of you people who keep having these pleasant surprises kindly share with the rest of us precisely what method failed you? Or are the rest of us stuck wondering and losing sleep at night?
As for #5, I'm convinced you can handle more than you give yourself credit for -- just ask any mother of twins!
I'm afraid revealing it would be TMI for all the world to have access to.
Congrats! I know you can handle one more, good luck!
How exciting!!! I am so happy for you and your family. I am wishing for you to have a little girl. You need a little more pink in your life!
WOW, congrats! So you are almost 5 months along and you just found out?? I wish I could do that! You will be a great mom, 5 isn't any more than 4- since you are already out numbered anyway!
I'm so very happy for you. We had a scientifically impossible baby, too. The emotions you go through are vast. You'll love the little peanut more than you an imagine, though. Congratulations! And thanks for not revealing all the details.
As one of those crazy people with five kids, I just wanted to tell you CONGRATULATIONS! You'll definitely be able to handle this. You always seem wonderfully patient with all your kids.
Congratulations! You are an awesome mom! I am so happy for you and your family.
Juliette- just to clarify, I have known since the beginning, I just waited to go to the DR since I won't have insurance until January! I usually don't tell anyone until I have the DR visit.
YEAH!!! Too fun, you're going to love your little #5. I do know how that shock can feel though. Lauren came faster than we had planned and I was so not ready. Congrats! Can't wait for all the updates!
Seriously congrats Shara! I really am super excited for you. Your kids are great! I love having Kaleb in our primary class. I think it's wonderful you get to add another one to the bunch.
Congrats, 5 huh. People ask me if I'll try for number 5, no not for me. I think you will do fine. Your a great mom.
congrats shara! you'll be a great mom of 5 and at least you have more room in your new house!!
oh, i've linked you on my blog...finally!
Congrats, you are an awesome mom and will do great with 5- thats why Heavenly Father gave you an extra one right! Anyone with 3 or more children are pretty much my heroes because because I am struggling with 3.
Congratulations! I am excited for you. Despite ehat you may think I know you can handle this. You are one of the best moms I know and you are so cool, calm and collected! I think girl! Can't wait until Tuesday be sure to post!!
Oh my goodness!! Congratulations! This is wonderful. Come on--you know you wanted one more ;D You guys are the greatest and this is so great. I love all your kids and one more in the bunch is going to be awesome. If I could think of anyone who can handle 5 kids--it would totally be you!
ps--I had an inkling that you were *pged* but I didn't want to be nosy.
