Thank you, first and foremost for those of you who enjoyed playing the baby gender guessing game. It was fun and I really appreciate all your excitement about baby.

Well after our ultrasound the verdict is in…

We will be welcoming to our household,

making our duo a trio:

HANNAH JOY!!!

=D

And we couldn’t be more thrilled.

So for those of you keeping tabs: Matt was right! And the joke lives on that “he only makes girls.”

Hannah is healthy, strong little girl measuring at 21 weeks. She has a wonderfully steady heartbeat at 153 beats per minute and is quite the mover (she’s kicking as I type this)- making our ultrasound pictures a bit on the blurry side. I was sure not to eat this time so as to give her any extra jitters, but she is just a busy little girl. =) Which is a WONDERFUL thing for us all to experience! And everything in there looks great and on track and healthy. Thank You, Lord, for the blessing!

For those of you who remember, Rachael wanted a boy. And while she repeated her requests a few times at the Dr. office, once she realized that we can’t dress a boy in pink, she was 100% in favor of having a Hannah added to our family. She is now naming her dolls Hannah, with an occasional Elijah Joel in there, despite the focus being on Hannah.

We’re looking forward to our little ladies trio maker coming to theaters in early September 2012.

I really can’t stop smiling and I don’t plan to. =D
