So if it isn't obvious WE (yes, I say we because it was all Greg's idea!! And we because all the boys are going to help raise this baby!) are expecting a new little one on September 23rd. I had an ultrasound at 8 weeks and sure enough there was a heartbeat and there was only ONE baby...good news. So I feel semi-safe putting this out there, (still chance of miscarriage, but seeing and listening to heartbeat is a good thing, right?). According to all the wives tales I'm having a girl...and a boy...all in one!
Here are all my families responses to this new surprise:
Greg: Oh, that's during hunting season...I guess you're on your own!
Me: I think I'm not ready for this. I mean the twins are potty trained and life is flowing just nicely. I guess it's a little late now? (we tried for six months)
Hunter: Super excited!! Jumping up and down. Now he understands why I've been so moody lately.
Austin: Super excited...but still really, really wants to get that dog we promised them!
Ryder: He said he also has a little, tiny baby in his tummy.
Peyton: He says with a very mean face "I hate sisters! I don't want a sister!!" He doesn't even know what he's talking about. I don't even think he knows what a sister is, since he doesn't even have any!!

Peyton probably remembers Londyn living with you for those 5 or 6 weeks! She's a living doll, but a very busy one! I love her! Hope you get a girl just as cute!!
CONGRATULATIONS!! I loved reading all of the responses Haha. Good thing you make such cute kids!! :) How ya feeling?
Congratulations! So exciting! I hope you are feeling okay. I'm rooting for a girl . . . but your boys are pretty cute too.
How exciting!!! I hope you have a girl for you, I guess if it's another boy then well you know what to do. Carter was so upset when we found out that Bella was going to be a girl, he cried. Now he loves her so much and wants to be around her all the time. He is such a good big brother. He said the same thing about sisters too. Miss you!! Good luck with the pregnancy and can't wait to know, if boy ir girl.
I am sooooooooo excited for you! Congratulations. Much love.
