It's another GIRL!

Check out the hamburger bun, as they refer to it. The second I saw it on the screen I knew - a few ultrasounds and it becomes a familiar sight! Yeah - another perfect, beautiful baby girl.

Here she is with her hand in her mouth - I have had hundreds of ultrasounds and the miracle of it never gets old for me. She was kicking and moving and changed positions twice during the screening. First she was head down and back out and then she was head sideways and legs kicking my side - looking straight at us. I have been secretly worried because I haven't felt the tiny kicks that I did with Annie - only big round movements - but come to find out my placenta has moved off the top of my cervix (a very bad place for it) and is now right in the front of my tummy so it creates extra padding (like I need it there). The baby is perfect in every way - perfect head, big brain (at least it looked big to me), great size and heart beating exactly as it should. The facial features show no sign of anything wrong and all of her organs are accounted for! Bob and I both had the same reaction when we got outside - this baby looks just like Annie. Say what you will about how similar all ultrasounds look but my guess is that she comes out with masses of dark hair and big beautiful blue eyes that sparkle and shine.


Molly and Peter were slightly disappointed at not getting a brother but they got over it quickly - they both loved the ice cream and having Grammy and Papa with us. I can't get the picture to upload of all of us at DQ (its tradition!) celebrating another H-W baby girl!

1 Boy and 3 Girls - such blessings!
GNM - ILY!

Pictures and updates - Finally!

The girls hanging out with Annie when they woke up on Sunday morning!
Molly and Abby always want to wear their hair the same way -
how cute do they look in their braids?
Our beautiful Girls!
Annie has her first sip of milk! She HATED it!

Julia came over on Sunday afternoon and all the girls watched Camp Rock.
Annie got a new toy to help her learn how to walk - she was so excited!


Julia dressed as Pocahantas.
Abby dressed in one of Molly's dance costumes! She loves this one.
Annie's first chicken nugget!
Our girl finally learns how to crawl and she is all over the place!

The girls playing dress up - they have so much fun together! I love this picture of my goddaughter - the outfit, the headband and the guitar - and the cute little smile to top it off!

The three girls posing for Auntie Kasey - AGAIN!

My girl working on her walking!

Abaigeal spent the entire weekend doing some form of dancing - she called this one naked dancing after her shower and she was so flippin cute that I decided to post it!
We had a wonderful weekend with the kids - Annie gets loads of attention when Tyler is around and the girls can't get enough of her. The only one who wasn't interested in her was Julia who at one point said to Molly (in an effort to get her to come back and play) "She's just a little baby and she doesn't do anything, Molly - I'm a big girl - come play with me." We barely saw Pete and Tyler on Sunday - they were out on walks with Bob and up in the playroom setting up armies - Bob and I agree a full house is the best! Having to add chairs to the dinner table is great! We also had a nice dinner - BOb and I got DeAngelo's with a gift card from his birthday (Believe it or not that is his favorite sandwich place) and the kids got McDonalds with a gift card sent to Peter and Molly a week ago from a friend from college who just found out we had another baby.
My friend Amy is coming home from Arizona this week - I can't wait to see her. She watched Peter for a year when he was a baby and we love Amy and her daughter Kelly. When Peter was 2 and Molly was 4 months we took a trip to Arizona to visit them but our visits have been once or twice a year at best since then - I hope to get some quality time this trip since they are here for a while!
So I can upload to blogspot if I do it by individual pictures and not as a group - takes 10 times as long but KK insisted so.....................

Cute pictures but you'll never see them!

I would love to show you all the pictures of Annie learning to crawl and the girls dressed up playing High School Musical and lots of other good stuff.......but once again I can't. Blogspot will not allow me to so I'm not even going to blog - I'm going to simply start checking out other blog spots - sorry if I sound bitter but I am! I'll try again tommorow!
GNM - ILY!
