A NEW ADDITION


As everyone knows, we are having a baby. Unfortunately, I have no idea if we should expect a little boy or a little girl. That's frustrating because I want to go shopping! If it's a girl the seasons are off from when Hallie was born and I'll have to buy all new girl clothes. If it's a boy, I'll think we'll be okay for awhile. I have an appointment in 2 weeks to see a Perinatologist to check the baby's blood flow to see if it's getting too many antibodies from me. Hopefully everything will be fine, but I'm not sure how serious things will get so it's a little scary. On the plus side, maybe the Perinatologist will check the other end of the baby during the ultrasound to see if we've got a boy or a girl coming! I think Asher needs a brother more than Hallie's needs a sister, so a boy would be nice, but I'm sure it's a girl. I don't think I'm ready for that! There's such a big gap between this baby and Hallie I feel like I've forgotten how to take care of a newborn! My counselor in Primary just had her baby. 9 lbs 9 oz. Can you imagine? I thought Asher was big at 8lbs 5 oz. She has a small frame too and she is short so they had to do a c-section. Looking back, I was a huge baby too. My feet were bigger than Asher's when I was born, if you can imagine that! I guess the nickname Chewbacca does fit me well!
