Seriously!?!

So our week has been a little busy. I've been trying to get back into our routine after the girls' being sick and then the Holidays. So mostly I've just been trying to get out of the house. Every morning when either I finally get dressed or get Audrey dressed (b/c we all know Grace never gets dressed, until the last possible moment), Audrey asks where we are going. As if the only reason we get dressed is because we are going somewhere. Okay, for the last 2 months, that has been the reason. That or Daddy was coming home. Anyways, that's my excuse for not blogging. I'm too busy getting our family dressed. :o)

We had our ultrasound on Friday morning and were really pleased to know that our child is healthly, the heart has it's 4 chambers and is beating well and the spine is all long and good. And we also discovered that apparently, our children tell me when they are ready to come to our family and to Michael with what they are. That's right folks, 3 out of 3 times, he's been right and I've been a little disappointed. With the girls, I knew it was a boy and was just so excited for him to come! Thankfully, both times, Michael mentions he thinks it is going to be a girl, about the week before the ultrasound, so I'm not crushingly disappointed. :o) This time, he's been saying all along, it's a BOY. I thought I was doing a good job of not really caring either way or thinking it was one way or the other. Apparently, I was wrong. I so thought that this child was going to be a girl. I could just picture the 3 of them in their cute Christmas/Easter/Summer dresses...


I'm still a little blown away that we are having a boy. Hopefully I don't sound ungrateful - I just can't believe that it is a BOY! But, truly, either way, I'm just so happy that everything looks good! Thank goodness! However, because I'm still pretty early in the pregnancy, the pictures were clear but not great ones. And I'm not putting his little boy parts on the internet. So you only get the best of the monsters. :0) I'm sure he'll look different when he arrives.


This picture was drawn during Grace's first day of Primary. From left to right, it is Grace, Mommy (the little round circle on me is the baby) and Audrey (barely seeable). I've brightened the drawing, so it will show up. But aren't we a cute group?! Today's picture was Grace, Daddy & Mommy, but I can't find it at the moment. I didn't realize that she could draw people! :0)
