Congrats to you! I'm due in December as well! The 21st. I keep 4 other children max. Currently have 3 plus my own 18 month old. Oldest will be leaving in the Fall, and I think I'll be staying at 2 as well until my baby is at least a few months old. I've gotten the heads up from my families on other infants due around the time I am. I haven't told my families yet, so I just say "Let me know when we get closer and we'll see if I have any openings." I only keep 1 little one under 12 months at a time, mine or anyone else's!

As far as what to say, Snowmom seems to have it covered. Unfortunately, you'll probably still get some inquiries because no one reads any more but it should lessen your requests at least....
