Addie will be a big help with her little sister!

It's a Girl!

We went yesterday for my 20 week ultrasound (I am actually 21 weeks along).   The tech said she is 98% sure it is a girl.  Everything looked perfect.  She is measuring right on schedule and weighs 15 oz.

Addie has been saying for several weeks that she is having a girl and I was having a boy, so when she heard the news it was a girl she wasn't thrilled.  It only took a few hours though and she was telling everyone she is having a little sister with excitement.

Due Date:  August 16th

Adelynn's 3rd Birthday Party

We had to bring out the pools for Addie's birthday party!  We figured it might be the only time she will actually be able to have an outside pool party in March.

Sledding fun

1.15.12

The one and only time we got to do some real sledding this year.

The thing I remember most about this day was looking up in the window and seeing the smile on Grandpa Hindle's face as he watched the girls having so much fun in the snow.
