We're having a BOY!

On May 14th, Christopher and I celebrated 3 years of marriage and received a very exciting present... We found out we are having a BABY BOY!! Even though I was convinced I was having a girl, we couldn't be happier to start our family with a little boy. We took the whole day off and went shopping for everything blue! We had a great time, but we didn't end up buying too much. We learned quickly that having a baby is going to be expensive because there are so many adorable things to buy! After our ultrasound, we had another routine check-up, where our doctor let us know that the baby looked healthy and the due date was still set for October 13th. I am almost 19 weeks pregnant which means only 21 weeks to go... I am finally starting to show just a little and I can't wait until I have a big belly! Its going to be a long hot summer, but the reward is definitely worth it. We will keep busy doing the Nursery and getting our lives ready for the new addition... We will try to keep this updated with lots of pictures and baby news!!

Those little white fingers are pointing to his "BOY-ness"

Doesn't he looks comfortable all squished in there?


His little foot... And we counted 5 toes, YES!!!



Annick has her BABY GIRL!

After a long night and morning in the hospital, Christophers' sister Annick gave birth to a BEAUTIFUL baby girl, Taylor Hope Gilbert. The day was filled with excitement as the family waited in anicipation to celebrate the new addition. Everything went very well in the hospital and both Mommy and Baby are home now and doing great. Taylor is the most adorable baby girl we have ever seen and holding her in your arms is the best feeling in this World! When the family gets together, its a race to see who gets to hold her first! Chris and I can hardly wait until we get to hold our own little miracle, but we are thankful Annick is doing it first so she can answer all of our questions!
