Baby News










SO... I went in about 2 weeks ago for my ultrasound. I had been eagerly awaiting the day for some time and couldn't sleep at all the night before. It was seriously like the night before Christmas where I was tossing and turning wondering "boy" "girl". Will I be done after this pregnancy? Will our family finally be finished? Or, will it be another girl, telling me that my work in bringing children to this world would not be over yet. I have felt since I was pregnant with Abigail that we have another boy in our family, but for some reason the Lord just doesn't want to send him until he can finish our family.

Well, I got my answer about 10 minutes into the Ultrasound...
We are not done. Baby girl #4 is coming our way. It has been about 2 weeks since I found out and I'm still coming to terms with it. I am definitley pleased that she is healthy and right on track with what she should be, but poor Carter! I have been keeping his cute baby clothes for 5 years now and am beginning to wonder if I will ever get to use them, or if I should just get rid of them. I just got rid of most of our baby girl clothes, but still don't regret that move. Most of them were used to begin with and now that they have been through 3 girls and this one will be a totally different season of the year, it will be nice to start new.
Now we have to come up with another girl name. We want to name our next son Andrew, but since it is not him we have to go back to trying to come up with a girl name we agree on. Any suggestions?

We really liked Maddison, and almost named Brenna that. There are also a ton of names that begin in Br that we like, but since we don't want a pattern, we can't use them. A friend of mine just named her girl Brielle, which I actually really like! I'll keep thinking, I'm excited to hear what you chose!
