It's A Girl!?

So, they told us it's a 90% chance that it's a girl! At this stage in development things look a bit different in that area. The doctors look for certain characteristics to determine the gender and they saw what is a girl! James and the kids are estatic. Ainsley was so excited when we told her, she was speechless. Her face lit up! I am excited, in a cautious kind of way. I want to be prepared if they tell us in 5 weeks that it's a boy. The appointment with the high risk doctor went great. The baby looked healthy and right on target for growth. I am going to be starting progesterone injections in three weeks to minimize the risk for preterm labor this time. Hopefully this will help me carry closer to full term without as many complications. All we can do is pray for the best!!

12 Weeks!

Since Danielle is catching up on her beauty rest, I'll take this opportunity to catch everyone up. First, the picture to the left I am extremely proud of. In fact, it almost makes me cry. (I know, spare me the jokes) I am so proud of my wife and sister and how well they are doing. My sister has had a very difficult pregnancy and thank God for my wife, who has been able to hold my sister's hand because of her own experiences. If anyone would like to check up on my sister, her blog is themossnews.blogspot.com .

Danielle has been doing great! I think it is amazing how she takes care of our children and is able to get through the morning sickness. She gets tired faster and smells get to her. In fact, I now have to shower everyday just so I don't make her sick. We are so excited about this baby. We are hoping for a girl. We don't even discuss the possibility of the baby being a boy. I think God really knew my heart and my desire for another daughter, that is why we are being blessed with this baby.

Here is our first picture of the baby! We are excited to watch her grow! Danielle is going to be seen by the high risk doctors again, which means that we will get to see the baby each month. Also, her doctor delivered Tiger Woods' baby - I thought that was pretty cool. In fact, I think we are enjoying this pregnancy more than any of the past pregnancies. I think this has to do alot with the realization that this is most likely our last. The kids are still excited and Ainsley remains set that is has to be a little sister or she may just send it back if it's another brother.

We are truly blessed! People look at us like we are crazy at times, but God gave us this wonderful family to build his kingdom and more children only increases the love within our family and the love that we can share. God bless each of you!

James
