A little sister for Carter!!!

We are so excited to say we are having a little girl this time! We both were certain that we wanted another boy and were scared to death of a girl but apparently we were wrong. I was so happy I cried :0) Jimmy was so happy it was just 1 that he cried too :0) No not really. He was very excited to be having a girl also. Daddy had her wedding in the budget spreadsheet by the next morning! Haha. My sister helped to jumpstart my girl frenzy with her first outfit, the most adorable little dress I have ever seen. It’s funny cuz when I was pregnant with Carter I was so irritated by the 1 rack of boring boy clothes in every store that had 50 racks of irresistable girl clothes. Now that I know we are having a girl I have yet to find a cute outfit to buy for her :0( 

OH, by the way SHE has a name :0) We have decided to name our daughter  CHLOE FAITH LIN! Don’t you love it? I have had the name Chloe Abigail picked out since I was 12 years old. But Jimmy loves the name Faith and offerred it up and I was happy to oblige and surrender the middle name. SO Carter and Chloe it will be! Two peas in a pod until the next one comes along :0) Jimmy says this is it, but with this winning streak of actually being able to get pregnant and without treatment, I think I’m gonna keep pushing for more :0) We will see how I manage 2 first I guess.

We just feel so blessed to be pregnant again and everyday we feel more and more blessed that now we get to experience a girl. Jimmy says the best part is that we can still tell Carter he is our favorite little boy in the whole world and mean it :0)

So our due date is still January 4th which puts us at 19 weeks today! Here is what Chloe’s ticker says…
I’m 6.5 inches from head to rump & 10.5 ounces; My hair is growing & my reproductive organs are developing! I’m 19 weeks old, only 147 days to go!
