And so the story continues…
After 15 years of marriage, the once young and vibrant teenagers, now tired and sleep deprived, thought life was just not boring enough. What could our crazy family of 5 do to spruce things up a bit. So they thought and they thought and they thought. Should we travel the world? Should we move back to Minnesota and brave the cold winters once again? Should we homeschool? Should we open an organic non GMO restaurant? Although all those sounded interesting in their own right, none of these ideas sounded like the right solution for us, at least not right now. So this was their solution.
We are so excited to announce that we will expecting baby Nelson in early February of 2016. Stay tuned to find out if baby Nelson will be a boy or a girl. Please comment below and let us know what you think baby will be.

YAY!!! I’m voting boy so that Clara can continue her reign of terror (meant in the nicest way!) without any competition! Haha!! I don’t see anyone stealing her thunder without a fight! Very happy for your family!!

Congratulations!!! Bobby needs a brother
Congrats to all of you! It will be an exciting household at the Nelson’s for sure! So happy for all of you and hope, Mara, that you have been feeling good.
Ohhhh my gosh Madelyn, she is hilarious!!!! Congrats on baby number 4, I can’t wait to hold “it” ?
Congrats! Wishing for a healthy baby!
I am so thrilled to hear your wonderful news. But as usual, I learned about it from Jolene and Mary Jo before I had a chance to read about it in your blog. I am definitely hoping for a little brother for Bobby, and hope he has his same sweet disposition. I don’t know if you could handle another “wild child” like Clara! .) (Although I think she is the cutest little girl). Can’t wait to come for another visit after the little Nelson arrives. By then, I’m sure you and Jon will need a night or two out by yourselves. Love to all of you, and , Mara, I hope you have a very easy pregnancy.

February 2017? Wow, that is long human pregnancy, haha! I always thought you guys were aliens but the confirmation has now been published 🙂
Congratulations everyone. Maddox deserves gender equality in this family so my vote goes to a baby boy…or another beautiful girl would be a great gift to humanity.
Will you visit MN soon after the baby is born?
Hugs and Love to all of you,
Meri
