It's about....

time that we filled everyone in on our little semi-secret that we are expecting baby #2 in December. We are just over 18 weeks along and just went in for our ultra sound this morning. We are going have a GIRL. Yep. That's right. We are very excited , although a little surprised because we were kind of expecting it to be a boy and kind of hoping that it would be because we have a boys name picked out and cannot seem to agree on a girls name. We are excited to have another sweet girl though, especially so Eden can finally have a playmate. Everything looked normal on the ultra sound, which was a relief. It has been a rough road getting to this point (a healthy pregnancy), but we are so happy to be here and hope that everything continues to go well. We feel very blessed and will keep everyone updated from now on.
By the way, the poor little girl is due on December 23rd....we are hoping to go a kind of late so that she doesn't have to compete with Christmas, but hey, we'll take her whenever she wants to come.
We'll take another one of these any day!

Wooo Hooo! Congrats!!!! You make beautiful girls! I was due on Christmas, but was born on new years instead- maybe she will be a new years baby, too. I'll be praying that all goes smoothly for you!

AAAAAAAAAAAA!!! I am SOOOO excited for you! I've been hoping (and praying) that this would happen for your little family. Yeah! And, another girl? Even better! But...yeah--I feel your pain on the naming thing. We're still clueless with what to name our little girl. I am so anxious to see what she'll look like! I'm sure she'll be gorgeous! I love that picture of Eden, bytheway. Well, now I can go to bed happy. I'm so excited for your news!

Kay...I just re-read that and it sounds like I'm saying MY little girl will be gorgeous...I was meaning YOUR little girl will be gorgeous--not to say that mine will look like chopped liver...but, you get the idea, right? :) It's too late for me to be awake and make sense right now. Sorry! :)

Horray!!! Horray!!! Horray!!! That is awesome that your having another girl. For some reason I was thinking you were finding out on the 28th. Sorry I didn't call ya. Seriously, so exciting. One good thing is you will be all ready for her to come. When you decide on a name let us know. Congrats again!!!

Congrats, we are in kind of the same boat, expecting a boy on the 10th of Dec. I'm so glad things are going so well for you guys.

That is so exciting! I was hoping you guys would be able to have another little baby soon! Eric and I would love to trade places with you though- we have 5 girls names picked out and not any boys names. And lucky us, I'm sure we'll have like 6 boys and no girls, but that's o.k. Not that I would trade my little Jack for anything or anyone- no matter how cute the girl is...
