We will be adding....

a sweet baby GIRL to our family! We are excited! We all piled in to Dr. Beck's office, he could barely get through the door. The kids were really excited, I was very anxious because I hadn't really felt one way or the other with this one, maybe because it didn't really matter what we got, I would be happy. Dr. Beck asks the kids who wanted what, of course Mak is the only one hoping for a girl, so he starts the ultrasound & she had her legs crossed, so after some poking & proding of my stomach she finally showed us what we had been waiting for. Dr. Beck looked at Mak & gave her a high 5 & said you win...it's a girl!! Mak was like what it is, oh my gosh, I'm gonna have a sister, finally! It was really cute & exciting for her. The boys were not as excited, or they were doing a good job pretending not to be! I am excited to now finally know what to start planning for and since it has been 10 years since we had a baby girl around here...we need everything girly now! On our way home we stopped at Babies R Us and picked out 3 outfits for her. I kinda forgot how fun shopping for baby girls can be! Everything looked perfectly normal on the ultrasound and everything is developing as it should be. We are almost to the half way point, so far it has gone by really fast, thankfully, cuz I am already starting to want my "normal" body back!
