BABY

It looks like the testosterone levels are going to double in our household. We're having a boy baby. A few people have asked about the girls. They had a great Christmas and definitely were spoiled. It was pretty funny on Christmas morning. I had Christian open the envelope because I couldn't do it. He got a huge smile on his face and announced that it was indeed a boy. Mylee broke down in tears saying she only wanted a sister. We had to turn the video camera on and console her for a little while. After a few talks she is finally ready to have a new brother. A few minutes later Kayla got so excited to open a present she flipped over backwards out of her new chair and landed on her back. What great memories. Don't worry we caught the whole morning on tape so as soon as I can figure out how to get it loaded on the computer we will post a little clip. Merry Christmas Everyone!

Good Job! I especially liked Christian's text to Jace..."I did it, I really did it!" I can tell he's excited. Boys are so much fun, and COMPLETELY different from girls. Good luck! I'm glad you have to time to get some boy stuff. That would've been a surprise to have a boy and come home to girl outfits and blankets and whatnot. But, I'm sure you are prepared with gender neutral. :)
Congrats you guys. All the best...

YAY!!! That is so exciting. Boys are alittle easier than girls and way less expensive. They will love their little brother. Congrats! And Happy Holidays.

YEEEAAAAAA!!!! We are so excited for you guys. That is the best news ever. It is so fun to see the differences in your girls from your boys. You'll get to do blue, buy trucks, and all kinds of fun stuff. We hope that you guys had a Merry Christmas! (Even though Mylee was a little bit dissapointed, we are excited for you!) Hope you are feeling better!

BOYS, BOYS, BOYS! HOORAY! I am excited for you and the christianator. I don't know how girls are, but boys rule. You never know what is going to come out of their mouths - and they never sit still, but are so much fun. How are you feeling? Hope all is well - we miss ya!

Oh man that little boy is totally in for it with two big sisters... They are going to be dressing him up, putting makeup on him. He is so lucky!!! Hope you had a Merry Christmas. I wanted to send a Christmas card to you but I don't have your address... I'll have to get it from you so I can send it next year
