And it's a .........

GIRL!!!!!!



We are so excited to be having another little girl. The doctor said that everything looks great. She was a bit of a wiggle worm during the ultrasound so we couldn't get the best picture of her profile, that and her hand was by her face so the picture wasn't that clear. She did wave at us though. It was so cool to see her perfect little hand and fingers moving. I got to take Scott and my mom to the appointment with me, Sadie had to stay home with my dad because children under 12 aren't aloud in the office. Sadie was super cute when I told her she was going to have a sister, she looked around the house calling for her sister. After we got back Sadie had an accident where she fell out of my moms car and kind of skinned up her face.


She is tough though and was fine in a matter of seconds. In fact she was more concerned with the fact that she didn't have any moles or freckles on her face like I do. She still makes me laugh all the time. Her new fun activities are pretending to steal my nose and eat it, then give it back, and singing popcorn popping, head shoulders knees and toes, and the ABC's. She loves to sing them with me and so sometimes I end up singing them 15 times in a row. I amazes me how much she is learning and doing just by watching and listening to me. I am so excited and feel so blessed to be having another little one.

July

To say that I am exhausted would be an understatement. We just got back from vacation with my family. We took a trip up to the Oregon coast where my dad had rented a lake house on ten mile lake. It was a lot of fun but I am ready to get back to normal life. While we were gone we celebrated my birthday. It wasn't the most exciting day of my life but it was okay. We got after a quick stop in Shasta. That was an interesting thing in itself. There was a big mountain bike race going on at the ski resort so they had the lift running. We were able to go on it too. I was really excited until we took off from the platform, when I remembered that I am really afraid of heights along with a squirmy 2 year old sitting next to me. Needless to say I freaked out and was crying when I could just imagine Sadie sliding through the bars and falling. It tool about 10 min to get up the mountain too. The ride down was much better. I had Scott take Sadie with him and my dad and I got to ride down with my mom. I was able to close my eyes for the first few minutes and then I got comfortable enough to actually watch what was going on. Over all it was a pretty good day.

And now I come to the fun part. We find out what we are having on Friday the 23rd. I am taking guesses as to what you all think it is going to be. I have no feelings either way so I'm no help. So far in my family the vote is pretty much evenly split. I plan to post as soon as possible on Friday with pictures and everything so be looking for it. So far this pregnancy has been pretty easy. I have only gained a few lbs and the baby is very active. I just hope that it continues to go as well as it has. I still have to go through my pictures from the trip and then I will try to post some of them too.
