It's a....

well... I never thought I'd be typing this... I honestly contemplated writing an "It's a Boy" post and "It's a girl" post ahead of time and then just clicking PUBLISH to the one that was true...

but alas...

this stubborn baby refused to cooperate today...

He/She laid there with crossed legs, and umbulical cord obstructing any possible view... and there he/she lay. No budging!

So all we know... is it's a BEAUTIFUL baby...

and we're in for a surprise in July. I'm actually really excited. Johnny would never go for surprise - he just can't handle the anticipation.. so I figured I'd never get to push and push and hear those word.. "It's a __________". I had just resigned myself to the fact that would never happen in this family. And I was ok with that. But now... now that I get a chance to be surprised... I'm excited!

and either way... whether it's a boy or a girl... I will be thrillled! I personally LOVE my girls... and wouldn't mind adding another one to the bunch. I know Johnny's hoping for a boy - and I'm ok with that too! Whatever this baby is... this much we know... IT IS LOVED!!!!

As I'm looking through this blog of your beautiful family I'm reminded just how awesome and perfect God really is! All your girls in one way or another look like you or Johnny. It amazes me how God does that! ;)

My husband hates surprises too, but I'm going to have this pregnancy a surprise too. I'm due 2 months after you. I have to go all the way through the summer heat. UGH.
The profile is darling though.

ooops!

I just realized that those "8 Month" pics I posted a few days ago weren't the 8 month pix.  They were more like one day shy of 7 month pictures... and THESE are the 8 month pictures! ha. o well... not much difference.  My editing was terrible in the 7 month pix - these are unedited, and probably for the best since it's not my strong suite! ha! (isn't this outfit from Nonnie ADORABLE!?) Love, love, love this one:    This is a typical face.  If he's not sucking in his lip, he's spitting and soaking his shirt with drool! (sorry so blurry - just had to remember this face!)
