Our #Three is a...

There was a lot of love in that ultrasound room. I wasn't sure what to expect and how much we would be involved during the checkup, especially since they get all up close and personal sometimes :). We just planned on rolling with whatever our birth mom felt comfortable with. Remember how amazing she is? Well, when she was called to the back by the nurse and we all stood up and proceeded to the back, the nurse looked a little shocked. Our birth mom made it clear that we were all ONE. I love that thought. We really are all one in 'cause' right now. Christian and I are both so grateful she is on our team through this process.
Ok, I'll get to the nitty gritty since that's what you all want to hear.... first off the OB is such an neat guy, he was really supportive of our situation and tried to involve us throughout the appointment. Christian and I got to place our hands on birth moms tummy and feel the baby. it was so sweet and a wee bit emotional for me (lets be real, what isn't these days!).   It's hard to explain the kind of love we feel right now. We are so grateful to our birth mom, we love her so much, we also feel so much love for this sweet babes and are already feeling  connected to HER. There I said it, it's a GIRL, and we are thrilled.  She has two lovely legs, feet, hands, kidneys, a brain, lots ribs, a liver,  and a beautifully beating heart (the sound of which brought tears to my eyes). She is perfect. She has our hearts and completely consumes our minds. I'm gonna have carpal tunnel by Tuesday if I keep pinning baby room ideas at this rate! Can it be October already? We can hardly wait to love on our baby girl.
Christian- you are a little out numbered here. As it stands there are two boys (Christian and Rex the Rooster), and 9 girls (me, 2 kitties, 1 dog, and 5 chickens).  I'd tell you to go get a really manly pet, like a snake if I weren't completely terrified of them! Despite these number, he really cannot be more excited about our baby girl, and to be honest, thats what he was rooting for. 
We want to say a BIG thank you to all those who have been praying for us throughout the years, Please keep us all, especially our birth mom in your prayers. 
And lastly, thank you Lily for stealing the show in this picture #yougottayawnwhenyougottayawn
