Snips, Snails & Puppy Dog Tails OR Sugar and Spice?

Today is the day I've been waiting for ever since we find out I was pregnant. Today is the day that caused me to toss and turn last night. I was anxious. I was nervous. I was eager.

This morning at 7:30a we walked into the doctors office to find out if Mason would be gaining a little brother or a little sister. Either way, we were going to be happy. We have felt very blessed to be adding another little baby to our family. Most importantly, we wanted to make sure the baby was healthy.



Brian said from day 1, that Mason was a boy. He said from day 1 that baby #2 was a girl. I had no instinct. I just couldn't tell. All I knew is that both pregnancies were very different but I heard that was common no matter what you have. 


So was Brian right? Would we be quoting "Sugar and spice, and everything nice, that's what little girls are made of" OR would it be "nips and snails, And puppy dog tails, That's what little boys are made of."............


Well............................




IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brian was right again!!! Sugar and Spice it is!

She is measuring right on schedule and looked perfectly HEALTHY!! Praise the Lord! We are so blessed to be adding a little girl to our family. Mason is going to be the best big brother ever! He has already started giving the baby hugs around my belly! Love him.


She was very active and moving all over the place. This didn't surprise me as I have felt her move for about 2 weeks now and just last week Brian was able to feel her move for the first time.

We are overflowing with joy and so in love with our little girl!  It means the world to us. It's hard to believe I am almost to the halfway mark. Perhaps she will be like Mason and arrive on her due date.. June 6!

Thank you for everyone that has prayed for us during this pregnancy.
