ITS A GIRL

It's official! Addison is gonna have a little SISTER!!! The little stinker had her legs crossed for the longest time and the ultrasound tech had to aggravate her to get her to spread her legs but when she did it was obvious there was no "hot dog" there and she is definitely a girl!
Above is a picture of her "hamburger" aka girly parts.

Above is a picture of her foot. She liked to show us her feet.

Above is a picture of her face as if she is looking at us.

I think when the tech said its a girl you probably could have heard a pin drop in the room (which was full-there was Jason and Addison, Sherry aka Grammy(jasons mom), Aunt Steph (jasons sister) and my Mom aka Mamaw Joan). We were all in shock! My mom didnt really have a feeling either way boy or girl but the rest of us were "Sure" it was a boy!
We are all EXTREMELY excited to have another little girl!! Addison will love having a baby sister and this baby has already got the best big sister in the world! We are very thankful that God has chosen this child to be ours and amazed and what He does!

As far as a name goes we didn't have a name picked out before the ultrasound but as we were in the room waiting for the doctor to come in afterwards we discussed names and think we may have chosen one. We aren't 100% settled on it but right now we are considering
Ava Marie.

BTW, the baby is perfectly healthy and measuring right on schedule. The tech said she weighs about 12 ounces right now. She has ten fingers and ten toes and two arms and legs, and a perfect heartbeat. God is so GOOD!!

Our little peanut

Today we went to the doctor and got our first glimpse of our surprise baby! He or she is a very active little booger and danced and wiggled during the entire ultrasound and the tech said "you've got a dancin baby!" So so cute! Here's a pic!


The baby is measuring right on track at 8 weeks 5 days and thus putting my due date December 12th. And the heartbeat is in the 170's. So very strong heartbeat and active baby-we are so thankful and blessed! Addison got to see the baby with us and she didn't really know what to think but she did look at it and say "Baby!" . Seeing this little one's heartbeat for the first time was just as exciting as seeing Addison's for the very first time. And today it became even more real that we are having another baby and what a miracle and blessing this truly is. I am thankful beyond words for what the Lord has done and what He is going to do! What an awesome God we serve!
