12 weeks!

We are happy to announce that we are expecting our third baby, due July 26th 2010. Chris, the girls and I are happily enjoying these first few weeks. Ellie has already named the baby, 'Ruby'. This is funny to me, I think its because the girls watch a show called Max and Ruby about a pair of bunny siblings. Sophia has hence decided to call the baby 'Max', or 'Blue Baby.' All of this conversation is fun. We aren't sure about the names just yet, but many people have the opinion that this baby is going to be a boy. Before we were even pregnant people told us our next baby would be a boy, particularly our Italian friends. I will be happy with whatever comes our way. It would be fun to have a boy in the mix, but a girl would be so fun too. Our first doctor's appointment was yesterday, and we had our first ultrasound. The photos and images were amazing. The baby's organs and body are so amazing, fully formed yet so small. This is my third pregnancy, yet life is still such a fragile amazing gift. I am so excited to be a mom again. We are excited about this addition to our family!
