Today's the BIG DAY! One that is ridiculously hard for me to wait for...the day we, Lord willing, find out if this third miracle is a boy or a girl. We are anxious to know, but more than knowing gender, our prayer has been the Lord's will and we so pray that involves a healthy baby above all. We know the Lord will gives us grace each step of the way, but if we were honest we would feel in over our heads on our own strength to deal with complications at this point in our life...but truly this and so many other things make us ask ourselves, "Do we really trust in His sovereignty over our lives and the lives of our children?" We pray that He grants grace to us to say yes, again and again. So without further ado, the results are in!
We didn't want to do anything elaborate, but thought it would be fun to let the girls discover the answer for us! We bought Gigi's cupcakes and they were kind enough on a moment's notice to fill them with blue or pink icing for us that we brought back in an envelope from the dr's appointment! So here we are, the much anticipated moment getting the girls strapped in for the biggest cupcakes they will have ever had the joy of eating! =)
We handed them to the girls and they immediately toppled over from being so "heavy" as the girls said! :) We asked the girls if they saw pink or blue inside...
Makenzie was more concerned with licking the icing off her fingers!
IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!!!!! Maddie Grace is sporting the evidence on her nose for the world to see...
Three girls it is for this family! From the looks of it, Maddie Grace is pretty excited to have a little sister!
We love these two girls so much and can't wait to add another precious pink bundle to the mix!
Bring on the PINK says Daddy! I know how to do girls...apparently :)
Daddy's real words were, "Strike 3..." =) Maybe we'll be blessed with a splash of blue at some point in our lives, whether it's through adoption or biological children. He might need a little boy to balance out all the women in the house!
We are beyond thrilled to meet this little girl and can hardly believe we're halfway there! It goes a lot faster when you're tending to two busy toddlers! (once you pass the first trimester nauseousness part!) Thank you Lord for what appears to be a healthy, thriving little princess who is already kicking with excitement to get out! What a miracle! We praise God for your life already and pray you and your two sisters come to know Him at an early age. We will, by His grace alone, strive to point you to Him each day you're alive! We love you so much already Miss Ashton Kate! And your sisters are pretty excited about you too!!!!
