Another fun, quick update. Heather started feeling our little girl (we like being able to say that) kicking about a week and a half ago. A few days later, I was able to feel her too. Unexpectedly, I had mixed feelings about the whole experience. On the one hand, it was incredible to feel a little life inside of Heather moving around and knowing that I had a part in creating that. Truly, it was an amazing experience. On the other hand, it was a little freaky, too. She kept tapping on Heather's stomach, almost as if to say, "Let me out of here!" I kept thinking of that scene in Aliens, the movie, where the baby alien comes tearing out of a person's stomach. I know, I'm such a guy. : )

GIRL!!! We found out this last Wednesday. Thanks to everyone for thinking about us this week. And sorry it took me so long to get this up on our blog. It's been a busy last few days. We are absolutely THRILLED to have be having a baby girl. And that includes me, too. Just because some people have asked: No, I am not in the least disappointed that we are having a girl. I can't wait to have little daddy-daughter moments!

When you can actually see the little limbs rolling in the tummy, it is so weird! Love you guys and can't WAIT to see how dramatic this little girl is going to be!
Hooray!! Todd, I can just imagine you having a blast getting roped into playing dress up and arranging stuffed animals for tea parties. It is so fun to start feeling your baby move!

Yay, I'm so excited for you guys! Girls are so much fun and I can say that from experience! Jared absolutely loves having two girls around to spoil him with hugs and kisses!
I had no idea Scott found the whole baby squirming inside business so freaky until 3/4 of the way through our 4th pregnancy! I cried, but I was crazy hormonal and attribute it to that. So I guess you're not alone!
Anyway, congrats! Congrats! Congrats! I am so excited for you guys! We love our girlies and it was so fun to have a little girl first. You'll adore every bit of it.
Heather, i thought of you this Christmas while picking out gifts for my daughter's kindergarten and 2nd grade teachers. I found myself inexplicably drawn to the lingerie section, but I was able to pull myself away before any embarrassing purchases were made.
Chris loves Daddy-Daughter moments! He takes Grace swimming or out to a special breakfast. You are going to have so much fun with a girl!
oh that is so exciting! I can't wait to see how cute your little bean-ette is going to be :) Heather I hope you're still feeling well and hooray for little girls! P.S. Could I set up my little Parker on a date with her in say....16 years?
Congrats!! We're so excited for you guys!
