Our baby is due on August 29th. Here is our little baby at my 20 week ultrasound. Everything looked great, or so said the tech :) TJ and I decided not to find out the gender of the baby. Some people are not thrilled and think we're crazy for not finding out, but I am very excited we're going for the grand finale! If it is a girl, we're set and if it's a boy I've already informed TJ we get to go on a shopping spree!
I am so excited to have another little addition to our family. I love the interaction from Toby. I love that she understands. A few weeks ago she felt the baby kicking. Her face was priceless, she just had a blank stare and then would look at me out of the corner of her eye. I couldn't help but laugh, and then she would start to laugh... She gave herself the laughing hiccups!
During her night time prayers, she says to "Please bless our baby to grow healthy and strong inside Mama's tummy. She also now puts her hand on my tummy and tells the baby "Give me a good kick!" or "Oh, I can't wait to hold you." -That one melts my heart!
Toby is going to be the best sister, she tells me she's going to give the baby hugs, kisses, fives, and tap-its. Also that she will share her toys and buy the baby a new teddy bear.
It's overwhelming sometimes to think about this new little spirit, where he/she is coming from how blessed we are to bring this little baby into our family. I love this little baby and am excited to meet him/her.

That's terribly sweet. I think it's fantastic that you're waiting to find out the gender. I thought I would with this baby, but I caved. Maybe number two. Your little baby is a lucky one to be born into your family.
Congratulations to you all! We knew the gender of Charlie, just because we knew, we found out with Ryan and didn't want to know with Michael. I loved the Dr. saying 'You have a boy!' It was a neat experience!
How exciting!! Toby is just going to love the new baby, Alex can't keep her hands off Heidi! We would LOVE to have a play date, next week especially. The Brady's are all headed to North Carolina and my mom is leaving, so i'm a bit nervous about how Alex is going to handle suddenly it just being the 3 of us. I'm sure she would love to show off her new baby to Toby!
Wow. My new Grandson. He looks just like his dad.
Love,
Papa
Steph! You are so beautiful and your testimony at the end just did it for me. I want a baby so bad!!!
