This is for you, Jason! :)

I love Jason so much. He's the BEST husband and father! I wanted to do something special for my hubby. I really could have gone this whole pregnancy without knowing boy or girl, but despite his attempt to be supportive of my idea not to know, I could tell that he REALLY wanted to know. So I made a call to Maberry today so I could surprise him tonight!! Tarah gave me the idea of making a cake to break the news. You make the inside of a cake the color that is usually representative of the sexes: boy - blue; girl - pink. When you cut into the cake you see what you're having. When Jason got home from work, he found a cake sitting on the table.

I chose chocolate frosting to keep the secret better! He's so excited!

Please excuse my kindergarten hand written icing :)

Look at that smile on his face!

I guess I should have put some more food coloring in the batter because it not very PINK!



That's right, another baby girl! I knew I saw some girl parts on that sonogram!!

The kids liked the cake more than knowing boy or girl :) Gracie has been saying she wants a sister, and now we know she's getting her wish!

Yummy!

So Brenna _____ Gibson should be here around April 6th, 2010. Haven't quite gotten the middle name figured out yet. :) Your prayers for a continued healthy pregnancy are greatly appreciated!

21 Weeks!!

Wow! 21 Weeks have gone by really fast! Time flies when you are busy chasing a 3 year old and a 1 year old! We had our appointment with Dr. Maberry today. He said everything looks great! The baby is 10-11 inches long and is about 15 oz. All the organs look great and the heart beat was strong. Thank God we have another healthy baby on the way! I think I saw some girl parts on the sonogram, but I'm not a trained professional. I told him I didn't want to know, but he said that he would write the gender down in our file and if I changed my mind to call and ask. We'll see if I can resist that temptation!

This picture has a good profile of the baby's head and a hand, too.

The top picture is the heart beat and the bottom is the whole body.

This one is supposed to be the feet, but I don't see them.

Well, here are some pictures of me and the kids (they want to be in every picture :) ) at 20 weeks.

Typical Boy

Today Caden and I went to the mall just to kill some time before picking up Gracie from Mother's Day Out. We looked at some stores and then he wanted to play at the little play area infront of Pennys. Then he wanted to push the stroller. I wasn't in any hurry to get anywhere so I let him push.

We walked past lots of shops. He is a wild stoller driver! I had to appologize to several people he almost ran over! But, I did notice that he stopped at 2 stores. Everything else he passed by, but these two stores he stopped and tried to go into both times we went by them.

One was that Rick's Collectables that has all the sports teams stuff. He really wanted to go see the football player!!

Yep, that's Victoria's Secret. Typical boy, right?

He wanted to to into the store to see the pretty girl!

Sports and pretty (hardly dressed) girls, what more can a guy ask for?

It starts so young - he'll be 2 in Feb!!

I'm sure Jason is proud!
