Baby #3

I am so freaking excited to be having another GIRL!!!  I was totally convinced I was having a boy so I really wouldn't even let the possibility of a girl sneak into my thoughts.  When the ultrasound tech said girl, I immediately got teary and excited, because I LOVE girl stuff!!  I also love having 1 little man all to myself.  Brevin is most definitely a mama's boy and he has stolen my heart.  I love having him as my one and only.  He plans on marrying me when he gets older, and I really couldn't handle 2 little boys fighting over me! ;)  Plus I am thrilled to be giving Isla a sister.  I swear there is no better gift!  I couldn't imagine my life without my sister, and even though Isla and Layla will be almost 6 years apart, I'm hoping they will be as close as my sister and I are one day.  

Layla our missing link.  Our closure.  I didn't feel complete as a family of 4.  Andy did though, which was a little tricky to navigate around.  Thankfully I got him to agree to try for a 3rd child until his 35th birthday (February 13th).  Once he turned 35 he wanted to close up shop.  I enjoy challenges and hate losing, so I took this baby making challenge very seriously.  I had 7 months to get pregnant, and it ended up happening on our 2nd try.  It took 3 months of trying for Isla and Brevin, so I was worried it wouldn't be so easy this time around!  I definitely got lucky.  This last pregnancy has been bittersweet.  I'm trying my best to cherish every moment.  I'm worried one day I will forget how amazing it feels to be growing a sweet baby inside of me. 

Only 18 more weeks until we get to meet our sweet girl!
