We were taken aback. What was wrong with five?
"Five isn't a Biblically perfect number. 3 is, but you shot right past that, so I guess it's going to have to be 7," and then he laughed.
We laughed with him and it became a long running joke in our family, but never let it be said that the Computer Guy and I don't listen to the wise counsel of our priest. We're also kinda nerdy and like the idea of perfect numbers.
That's why we're having a #7.....on or about December 6th......we're already referring to this baby as "Perfect Number 7"....that's not too much pressure on a kid is it?
P.S. Dear prayer buddy, We've been joking for the last week that this is what we get for joining the infertile girls prayer group. LOL! Can you add perfect #7 to your list? Sell the house, healthy baby, conquer morning sickness....that's what I need. Thanks.

Congratulations! What wonderful news. The sibblings will help with the pressure, I am sure.
Congratulations! although now you're making me nervous...our #5 is due in July... LOL
Yay, close to the Feast of the Immaculate Conception! I'm not your official Prayer Buddy, but you can still count me as one! With love and admiration, Mary W (once Easter has come, I am your friend on FB)
PS, I'm already your friend on FB, but I am one of those random followers/readers who is still a wallflower...
Congratulations!!!
Congratulations!
I'll pray you get as lucky as I am in the department of morning sickness. (I get queezy late in the afternoon, if I haven't eaten properly. That's it.)
That just happens to be my anniversary!! :) CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Praying for you!
Congratulations!!

CONGRATULATIONS!! -Loretta
Horray!! Praise God! (And for my sake, what does the number eight mean?)
Three cheers for You!
Isn't Dec. 6 the day for St. Nick? Maybe you'll find Baby 7 in a large shoe that morning.
Congratulations!!! :)
WOW!!! Awesome, I got your comment, and I thought it was strange and said to meself: "What is more important than ME?!" I guess #7 is :) If it is a boy, it being perfect and all... I suggest Joseph as a perfect name :)
Congrats! Seabands surprisingly really help me with morning sickness. I was skeptical, but figured that if Mrs. Duggar uses them, I might as well try too! :)
Congratulations!!! So happy for you!!!
This is so exciting, what a joyous announcement!
Congratulations!!! Very exciting. But now you'll have a family of 9...and 10 sounds so much better :)
Congratulations!! What wonderful news!!
I am so excited. You know that. Tell you what, get those prayer buddies working on praying for #s 6 & 7? I mean, we're still two children short of "perfect". LOL.
And if seven is perfect, then is 14 perfect perfect (DH is one of 13, his mom lost #14....)...

Suspicion confirmed. Congratulations!
Congratulations!
praise God!!! I've been sort of waiting for an announcement of this kind from you. Yippeee!
Beautiful news! Our perfect number 7 gradually evolved to become the middle child. I know 13 isn't a "perfect" number, but it's perfect for our family :-)
Congratulations!!!! :)
Congratulations!!
Congrats! So excited
Congratulations. Number 7 and 8 have been the greatest gifts for both my hubby and I. It is just so great having a baby with so many older siblings. I love watching them all interact and I am sure you will too.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! ALthough, I'm a fan of even numbers, so I think you should go for 8 :)
Congratulations!!!
Sweet Mom!
How exciting!
Congrats!!

I married #7!
Congrats!
#7 coming in our family too, hopefully this summer, through adoption from Eastern Europe!
We Moms of 7 rock ;-)

Whoa, Holy Joseph! I got lost working overtime for a week and I missed this announcement.
That is fantastic. Congratulations! I'm sorry. (Isn't that how it goes?) ;-)
Does that make my little Nodling, Dab, safe from cross country snatchings?
Very happy for you. L'chaim! To life!
Nod, He's only safe until the morning sickness wears off!
Ahh!! I missed this, but was wondering what the big news was - I am so glad I came back to investigate! I am so excited for you and I think 7 is a GREAT number...or 9, or 10, or 11, or you get the picture! God Bless you and prayers coming!!!
