It's A ...........

We are so excited to announce that we are having another little GIRL!!!!!!  We got the call this past Tuesday from the geneticist.  They said she is healthy.  The baby's risk of being born with anything they tested for is 1 in 10,000.  Kyndal is probably the most excited of all the kids.  She has said it was a girl from day 1.  Some of the boys were hoping for a girl, and the others are coming around to it now.  It's so cute, Kyndal keeps saying she has a baby in her tummy too.  She talks about her all the time.  She says she's going to come out when my baby comes out!!  haha!!  We have chosen the name Reagan Sarah.  Reagan was one of my top 3 girls names.  We decided on the middle name, Sarah because this is my mom's middle name.  Kyndal has my middle name and if we have another girl after this one, she will have Chris's moms middle name. (Yes, we still want more!!)

I'm so excited that Kyndal will have a sister.  Growing up, I always wanted a sister.  I had 4 brothers, but I always felt like I was missing out on this special bond I saw other girls have with their sisters.  Plus, we are running out of room in the boys rooms!  Kyndal and Reagan will share a room, once Reagan is out of our room.  Kyndal is already asking where is Reagan's crib and trying to show me where it can go in her room!

 Reagan is due 4 days before Zachary's birthday.  She is due on Jan 4.  My baby's have been born 1 week to 10 days early.  Which puts us between Christmas and New Years!  That should be an interesting time to have a baby!  Tyler keeps asking me "what are we going to do if she is born on Christmas?" "Do we have to wait to open presents?"  You see where his concerns are!!

I'm so excited to shop and buy baby stuff!!  I have already bought a few things off of facebook boards of second hand stuff.  I love when I find good deals on used things, especially baby stuff, cause it doesn't get used very much and is usually in great condition!  I am excited to go add stuff to my babiesrus registry.  They give you 10% off anything you buy on your registry.  I figured I'll register for everything I need and slowly buy off of it and get a discount doing it!  Works for me!!  Actually I'm finding a lot of places do that if you create a registry with them.

Now that I'm in my second trimester, I can feel my energy level coming back up.  I was so exhausted throughout my first trimester.  I am trying to get back into working out.  I have been going for walks and working out on my stepper.  I'm hoping to keep it up the rest of my pregnancy, only 25 more weeks to go!!
