We'll Finally Be Four

We are excited to announce that baby number two is on it's way!! It will be here hopefully somewhere around February 7th, unless Kylie is any indication then it will be a Valentine's baby. Getting babies to our family is a little tough. Thank goodness for modern medicine and a good doctor, the first trimester is over with and everything looks really good. It has a heartbeat of 174 bpm which apparently "sounds like a girl." I am not sure how reliable the heartbeat is in determining gender, but I couldn't wait to tell Jeremy. I knew he would be thrilled. He's really hoping for his boy this time. Of course we would be happy with either. If you ask Kylie if she wants a brother or a sister she says sister. If you ask her if she wants a sister or a brother she says brother. I don't think she really cares, but today I asked her what she wanted to play with and she said "My brother." Maybe she kind of understands what's going on.

Kylie told her grandparents by sending them letters in the mail and telling them how excited she was to be a big sister, and she was going to be a big help. She also told them that they needed to make sure they brought plenty of attention for her when they came to see the baby. She does not want to be left out. We couldn't be more excited and we are just glad to have this little baby be ours.

She'll be good, won't she? I don't know if it's because we have been talking about it or what, but she has all the sudden become very aware of her babies and making sure they get fed and put down for naps. She was doing this before she went to bed the other night.
