A Valentine's gift for everyone



Well it is official, we are having a girl! I had to pay up and give Chelsea some ice cream because she guessed it right....again! This is our third child, and Chelsea has guessed the sex correctly of each one...I think she is cheating some how:) We had the ultrasound yesterday and while it wasn't the most informative ultrasound we have ever had (the tech barely even talked to us the whole time and she only showed us the baby for about 2 minutes.) Anyway, she said that "unofficially" the baby looks fine, but we will have to review the results with Chelsea's doctor. So, needless to say, we are pretty excited here.

Brooklyn is especially excited to be having a little sister. She has already gone through 3 names for the baby; Sandra (no idea where that came from), Grandma Pam, and Grandma DeEtte...yeah sorry Brooklyn we aren't going with any of those (no offense Grandmas). However we are accepting ideas for her name. Let us know what all ya'lls favorite girl names are.

Oh and by the way, we were contemplating even getting pregnant, but from past experience we found that this was the only way we could guarantee any type of out of town visitors (except for Adam and Fabiane). So we are taking reservations for around February 15th, the due date, so get flights now...c'mon don't be shy.

Here are the other two pictures that we got from the ultrasound. Sorry they don't really show much.

Congrats to you guys! We will definitely have to visit. We are so excited for you!! Oh- and you know Katie is what you want to name her, so I guess you will have to go with that:)

Celeste said...

Congratulations you guys!!! This sweet girl is joining a great family!

i like the name Reagan for a girl. Pronounce it either way REE or REA like the president - either way it works. Brooklyn, Caden, Reagan.

congratulations! how fun, we are due in May...Hannah wants a girl, but hasn't said what she "thinks" it is yet.

Michelle Cox said...

Congratulations on expecting a girl! I didn't know that Chelsea was seeing the midwives. So great! I had all three kids with them and really loved it. Have her say hi to Amy, Lois and Jan for me.

Jamie Smith said...

Congrats! I totally forgot to ask you today what you found out! You need to tell us! At least you husband blogs it and tell us! Well, if you need any great name ideas ask Jazmin! She's the expert!

Sorry Michelle, Chelsea actually goes to Lonestar OBGYN, but the ultrasound was done at the Midwives. They must share the ultrasound unit or something.

Mitchell's thanks for the name ideas. Anyone else have any?

Celeste said...

My friend just named her little girl Adeline. I thought that was a pretty cute name.

CONGRATS!! oh, and I have lots of girl names. --that's my thing, trying to find names for people-- Here are a few.

-Esme'
-Hazel
-Brinkley- maybe this sounds too much like Brookelyn...

Ok, bye!

Congratulations guys! Sorry about the 2 minute ultrasound, it's always fun to see your baby as much as possible. I loved seeing Cicily on screen every other week in the end. Although I wouldn't exactly recommend the 45 minute ultrasounds!
Sorry I'm no help with girl names. So far we've come up with our 2 girl names by making jokes about other names- maybe that'll help? :)

Sarah said...

Congratulations!! I am so happy for you guys. It will be so much fun having another Brooklyn running around.

Emily R said...

CONGRATS!!! little girls are so much fun!

Shane Meredith Mason and Kendall said...

Congrats!!!!! Did I miss a post that said she was pregnant? that is great! I love the name Savannah, Shane said it sounded western though..but since you are in Texas, that would work :)

The Farnsworth Family said...

Congrats!!! How fun for you guys & your kids. More pink, more bows, more tights, more drama & lots more love :)

The Farnsworth Family said...
