"It's A"

We are ecstatic to announce that we are adding the color pink to our already bold color pallet. Our plates will be overflowing but I'm pretty certain that the abudance of love headed our way will compensate for all the chaos. My husband and I made bets (30 min. massages) as to whom was correct on the gender and as much as I really hate to admit this "I WAS WRONG," and lost. Our ultrasound tech confirmed that I was wrong even after I proceeded to ask her if she was sure and how long she'd been doing this for, she grinned and replied "OHHHHHHHH just 32 years and there are no boy parts here." A huge part of me really wanted a little boy partly because we have everything to accomodate one; however, the other huge part of me (no not my butt) wanted a girl just to see what she would look like since the hubby and I have already made one heck of a good looking male offspring :). As the color pink has settled into my core, I'm finding myself more and more elated at all of the fun aspects that having a little girl entails: hairbows & headbands, frills & lace, dresses & mud, pink & purple, flowers & butterflies, and the most incredible of bonds.

We broke the news to our kids and families via a dessert decoy which left them in a turmoil. The list of possiblities they came up with as to why we were inviting them over in the middle of the week was quite comical so I have to share a few:
*We're having twins
*We're moving back to Salt Lake
*Hubby is taking a new job
*Mom is getting hitched
*Baby Gender (actually was on their list).


















We painted a box with blue/pink polka dots and filled it with pink/white balloons to reveal gender. Our kids and families seemed over the moon excited about adding another pink bundle to the clan. We are definitely looking forward to the adventures ahead and hoping to reach the finish line of this pregnancy with great health and complication free :) heartburn free would be nice too but that's probably not a possibility :(
