I am thrilled to announce that baby #4 is in fact a sweet baby girl! She is perfect in every way! My first u/s that we had NOTHING show up out of the ordinary. No red flags. Just an amazing experience! I feel so incredibly blessed by God...I truly have no words for it! The u/s tech kept telling us that I am like her dream patient! She said my body is built perfectly for clear pictures that she was able to just sit back and enjoy the "show" as well! AND because of this and because our sweet little cookie was so chill, calm and well...cooperative she did 3d shots for us as well! Excited to say that she looks identical in u/s pictures to her sisters! Cannot wait in 19 weeks to meet/hold her in my arms for the first time! She will be a wonderful final addition to our family! Dying to see if she has my dark features or my husbands light features (both girls have Paul's blond hair and blue eyes...where as Noah has my dark hair and hazel eyes!).


We wanted to tell the kids in a special way! I thought...balloons! I will go buy balloons. I own a helium tank (doesn't every mom of 3?!) and will put the balloons in a box so they can open it to PINK floating in the air! BUT, it was getting late...they were at my friends house and Michael's Craft Store did not carry balloons...lame-o! SO...we did it the old fashioned way. We told them together once we were at home! I would love to say that all were ecstatic. But my poor Noah cried! He said...but I wanted a boy baby we already HAVE a girl baby! I rocked him and hugged and kissed him letting him know that I'm thrilled as he will always be my special child cause he is my only baby boy! He then perked up and said "Ive got an idea...the next baby can be a boy baby!" I tried so hard not to laugh as we knew we only wanted 4 kids and looked at Paul. I said "well honey, we will see!"

I am now off to bed to dream about my precious gift from God! OH, what a blessing she is!
