Announcing Barton Baby #5...
A word of explanation...
Today at our ultrasound we asked the u/s tech not to tell us the gender. She wrote it in an envelope and sent us off. We dropped the envelope at a local party store and left while they filled the box with the surprise balloons. We picked up the sealed box, wrapped it and waited for family and friends to arrive. The girls gathered around and helped us open the box to release the balloons.
Hollie's reaction: if it's pink it's a girl. if it's blue, it's a girl. (SORRY HOLLIE!)
Shy's reaction: I'm sure Kenzie captured it best in a picture, but she was the MOST excited.... wide mouth and eyes... thrilled.
Natalee's reaction: cautious, hesitant as always. I'm pretty sure I saw a little smile somewhere in there tho!
Johnny & my reaction: thrilled!! Thrilled for Brock and thrilled for us! (: Now we desperately need to find a name. It's going to be TOUGH.
It was so fun having friends and family there tonight! I will follow up with some great party pictures including the "blue" team and the "pink" team, and the voting jars...
