We're Having..............

A BOY!! I am so excited. I cried and laughed all the way home at the idea of THREE boys, three brothers, three little boys in white shirts and ties at church, and three boys doing karate with Joe.

I wasn't sure what I would think when I heard either gender. But,when we finally knew, I was elated! I am happy to be a mother to two great boys already and can't wait to meet my new sweet little guy. I feel so lucky all around. What a great day!

SO SWEET!

Today I over heard Ben talking to Joe. I perked up and listened when I heard Joe ask, "You're having a baby sister?" (As of now we still dont know what we're having. Hopefully we'ff find out thursday.) Ben said "Yep."
Joe asked how he knew he was having a sister. Ben said, "I asked, and I asked, and I asked Heavenly Father, and He said 'Yes'. "
Joe asked, "How did he say 'yes'?"
Ben said, "Just in my heart."
Joe asked Ben, how many times had he asked.
Ben said about ten times.
Joe said, "You must want a sister pretty bad."
Ben said, "Yeah, because he was a boy and he already had a baby brother."

I just thought his conversation was pretty cute. I love that Ben has been thinking about the baby to come, adn even praying about what he wants. It's also amazing that He believes and receives answers to his prayers, and knows that Heavenly Father answers in our hearts. I love my boys!
