The verdict is in!!

Well, after a long wait, we finally know about Baby A! I went for my 22 week appointment and at first it looked like Baby A would remain a mystery. But after some time, and a twist in a different direction, the truth became clear. It's a GIRL!!!!! I almost kissed the ultrasound tech. Not that I wouldn't have been happy with a 3rd boy, but my heart was really aching for a girl. :) God truly blessed us with the desires of our hearts as 2 boys and a girl was our "ideal" combo. So cool that he gives us the little things we want sometimes!

Here's a pick of our little girl. All curled up. She is definitely going to be quite flexible as she seems to get squished by her brothers a lot!


And here I am. It's definitely getting harder to move around these days, and I know it will only get worse as time goes on. But it is wonderful too...it just means we're getting closer and closer. Really it could be just 2 months away. Ahhh!!!!! I've also included another pic of me and Rich from my first baby shower on Saturday. It was so wonderful and I'm so thankful to my dear friends Steph, Christina and Melissa for all they did to make the day special. Thanks girls!!

    Congratulations!!! Every time we talk to someone at Grace OPC they ask if we've heard about your good news. :-)

    Of course, we just have experience with twins, but if there's anything I can help with as far as advice on multiples, let me know (joanna dot smolko at gmail dot com). It's a little overwhelming at times, but absolutely wonderful, I wouldn't trade it for anything.

    Rich and Julie - congratulations! Hooray for two boys and a girl. It took me 8 years to come up with that combo, and you'll have it in like 7 minutes! Praying for everybody and I'm loving following your blog. Love, Grace Haymes
