Okay, this was supposed to be Wordless Wednesday, emphasis on wordless. But, clearly, I must explain. I thought this picture was funny.
It made me giggle when I saw it in Dalton’s backpack and I thought it might make you giggle too. Even Tori laughed, and I didn’t even have to explain why I was giggling. So I thought you guys would see what I saw: nine “balloons” that looked an awful lot like, well, something else.
I didn’t even think about the number and it’s significance. For us, nine has no meaning as we are SET with our eight kiddos. You guys are cracking me up, you must have thought I’d gone off the deep end.
And you would have been absolutely correct. You’d have had to do some sort on intervention.
So there you have it, all you Nancy Drews… no secret meaning, no exciting news… just a sweet picture of, er, balloons! Thanks for your concern, though π
Busy Mom says
…looks like someone might be looking at your future! Is there another wee, little one out there for your great family?

Mom to my China Posse says

Also I am enjoying reading your friend Lisa blog, she is a riot and says alot of things we are all thinking. lol……
Sheryl says
Hmmm. Very interesting. So happy to see Cole’s total so high! What a mighty God we serve! Blessings, Sheryl
Julia says
Nine? Last count there were only 8 “balloons”… I’m waiting with anticipation over here…
Of course the funny thing would be that it’s just a pretty picture of 9 balloons that one of your little ones drew – jokes on us. π

Stefanie, I wouldn’t be surprised at all!! Any announcements? What a cute picture!!
Lisa says
OH my goodness. I didn’t make the connection at all. I was just like, “Huh. Interesting.” How slow am I?
Sherri says
Personally, I’ve always said that once you have 3, you may as well have 10. I guess for someone who has 8 kids already, it really wouldn’t be a shock to add one more.
Maybe there’s more to this…….

Oh Stef, I have a feeling that another little one will join your family, but I have to say I thought you had gone off the deep end when I saw this post. π I was thinking to myself, “It’s just too soon! She needs to wait until Jude and Shepard go to preschool! She’ll lose her mind!” LOL Seriously though, wait a few years. I have no doubt that we will be seeing another announcment!! Maybe I am not one to ask though… take a look at my brood. π

Andrea says
OK>>>I had not seen any of these comments or your post…I scrolled down and saw the picture(without my glasses on) & said,"Why does Steph have a picture of SPERM on her blog?"
Then I read your post and all of these comments!
I am so happy I am not the only one who is MESSED UP.
Thanks, Amie! π

Ashley says
Yes that was very funny! I do not think anyone would be surprised – what’s one more?
Denise says
Ok, I saw sperm too …right away!!
epin says
When my friend returned home from China with her daughter, I made a “welcome home” sign with lots of balloons . . . which also looked like sperms! π
Shelby says
I must be to tired or have adopted too much or in need of some quality time with the hubby because I didn’t see sperm and I didn’t think you were hinting at adding to your beautiful family. I just saw balloons…I’m usually much quicker than this:) Shelby
