Thirds

Having thirds-- sounds so glutinous, right?  Eating at a buffet, you know you secretly judge the person who goes back for a third round.  I mean,  the saying "too much of a good thing" didn't invent itself.  So there is a part of me that feels a bit glutinous for choosing to have a third child.  Lots of people probably think "Isn't two enough?"  Sure, two kids are enough in terms of work, noise, tantrums, and expenses.  But in cuteness?  In wonderfulness?  Me thinks not.

Just imagine what the third of the Brothers Karlsson will be like... we are pretty excited to find out ourselves. 

We are also celebrating the third trimester, of my third (and FINAL) pregnancy.  While physically miserable most of the time, I do feel that the end is near and that the reward will be sweet, and cute, and cuddly. 

Lastly, we can officially announce that the Karlsson clan will be returning to the San Francisco area in June 2013!!!  Mattias' offer letter at UCSF is signed and we are already setting the gears in motion to move our growing family back West.
