Three

We found out today that baby #3 is a girl. Poor Tyler is terribly outnumbered. But, girls are normal, or shall I say, safe for me. I know what to do, the hair, the clothes, the games, the TOYS! I love all things girly.

I won't lie though, I was hoping for a boy, we all were. Annagrace had changed her mind three days ago, saying she now wants another sister. But, up until then, we were all gung-ho boy. This pregnancy felt different in many way: I was eating different, my skin was different, my belly was even different. I was so convinced, I even purchased boy clothes that I found clearanced here and there. (I'm stocked on baby gifts now hehe!) I wanted the experience of having a Mama's boy. I wanted Tyler to have a little buddy and coach pee-wee football. And I wanted to sit out on the high school bleachers, sweatshirt and huge smile plastered on for "my boy."

But honestly, when the ultrasound tech said its a girl, I felt a little sense of relief. I was going into common territory and I couldn't be happier! Katelynn Jean Welch will be here the middle of August and turn our duo into a trio.
