And it is going to be a....??

We feel so blessed that God has granted us another family member...we honestly feel so thankful and really would be happy to have either a boy or a girl. Fully trusting that HE knows what is best and has in store for us leaves such a peace that we don't question what we are given. It's funny as everyone around assumes we want a girl maybe since we already have a boy. I honestly didn't have one preference over the other as I could see benefits and drawbacks to both. Yet upon hearing the news I find it so interesting that so many others seemed to have stronger feelings about it than I did.

I am happy that we will have the experience to raise a little girl and will have fun watching my tenderhearted husband have a little girl... Yet I do have to admit the drama that comes with a girl truly scares me!! I guess I know what area I will need to pray ferverently about:)

This morning I asked Derick if he had thoughts about having a baby brother or sister. He said, "I know I am having a baby sister." He has been saying it pretty consistantly with confidence. While we didn't want to buy into it too much, maybe there is something to be said about it. Anyway, everything else seems to appear like it is going well at this time and baby is right where she needs to be...on the smaller side of the average scale, but Derick wasn't a huge baby so will be fine if she is in the same 7lb range. You can see the above little video clip of her rubbing her hand on her face. I am always amazed at how inticate they can see things even when babies are so small...I think she said around 9oz? Amazing work of our creator!
