On February 7th Scott and I went to have an ultrasound---well, I had the ultrasound and Scott came along!! Most importantly we have a healthy little baby who was "very photogenic" as the tech said. This baby loved to play with it's hands. After a few minutes she came to the exciting part and informed us that we will be welcoming another boy to our family.
To say the least we were pretty shocked. Both of us have been thinking that this baby was a girl and so have all the kids. They have been talking for months about having a baby--it's always a sister, she, her. So to find out boy was a big thinking adjustment but we are excited.
It was funny to tell the kids that day. First, I told Carly and she did a little jump and got a pouty face and whined, "NO, I want a girl baby in your tummy." Then I told Carter who was reclining himself sideways in an overstuffed chair. Using his head and feet he arched his back and whined almost word for word the smae thing as Carly. When I picked Taylor up from school I was beginning to feel a little bit like that movie, "Groundhog Day" when Taylor said, "NO, I wanted a girl baby!"
After I told Carter that he could teach his little brother how to play swords and light sabers he felt a little bit better. Now they are okay and getting excited but their inital reactions weren't so good!

He is a VERY photogenic baby. That is hilarious about the kids...but they will forget all of it as soon as they see their adorable little baby brother!
Wow, poor kid is unwanted! What a way to come into the world!
WOW, another BOY! Well this just means you can all spoil Carly EVEN MORE! We are so excited for you all! And the baby looks adorable, even just in black and white!
Congratulations, guys! Now we'll be the same--three boys, and one little princess. I hope we get another girl eventually for because I want Daphne to have a sister. Daphne was really sad that Hayden wasn't a sister, but she really has fallen in love with him since. Anyway, I'm excited for you guys.
