Christmas

Merry Christmas!

What a fun day!

Bradley and Brett are the perfect ages, I think they got the most enjoyment out of the day.

Maybe it was a tie - I really enjoyed watching them.

I think ALL the boys had a great day.

It's a ...

GIRL!!!

The Doctor checked,

and double checked.

He said he was pretty sure

last month,

but since I told him he had to be

completely positive,

he waited.

He showed us all the parts,

and assured us that

no other parts would be growing!

What on earth are we going to do with a girl??!

Whoooops!

Surprise!

Shock!

Still don't believe it.

I can't believe I have to do this again.

I cried, lots.

I was afraid to even tell Bryan,

he kept saying we were really done.

Then after a week of waiting for just the right moment

Wouldn't you know it -

He laughed.

He was actually happy.

Good thing, I'm not there yet.

I already had "pregnancy-related" kidney stones

Spent a couple days in the hospital

They quit counting at eight...

(I'm okay now that that &

a nasty eye infection are over)

There were reasons I didn't want to do this again.

Even the doctor said,

"It must have been meant to be."

I am just trying to have faith that

everything will work out!

...

p.s. yes, we checked already,

there is only one

that was my first question for the doctor.
