Daddy's Girl...already!



Well, here is our baby girl. She will be thrilled to know one day that we posted her girl "parts" on the web for all to see. We found out tonight....99% sure anyway. She is apparently stubborn (can't imagine where she gets that!)....because she literally kept her knees together and her feet under her the whole time, but the ultrasound tech did get enough of a view after much poking and proding to at least give us a clue. She is truly a Daddy's girl, because the ONLY time she moves around is when Jim is talking to her. Tonight we saw her respond to EVERY word he said...it is too cute. Sam is in denial. He swears he saw a penis on the screen and is telling everyone he is having a baby brother! We have some big talking to do between now and April I suppose. My sister, known lovingly as "ITCHY" to Sam(don't ask) is so thrilled! She has known all along it would be a girl. She already went to the store and got her a UGA pink onsie and the cutest princess blankie I have ever seen. Maddie's first presents! I can get used to this pink thing! Jim is still in shock I think...but I am afraid I am in trouble. She already has him wrapped around her cute little finger.

Madison Rebecca should arrive around April 4th!

Rich with Gas?

Tonight I was reading all about the Titanic with Sam, for the millionth time, and the book was talking about it being known as the "rich man's special". I asked Sam if he knew what rich meant. He said, "Yes, it means you have A LOT of money!" So I asked him if we were rich, he said no. Then he went on to say, "Well, we are rich with love and gas stations!" I cracked up. He is right, we do have A LOT of love in this family...and Snellville isn't short on gas stations either!
