Drum Roll Please!

Colin's going to be a big brother!

I am about 18 weeks and we just found out that we're having...

a GIRL!!!

Grady...party of 4?  We will have children?  As in, more than one?  PLURAL?  CRAZY!!  I mean, I've known for a while, but knowing the gender makes it more than a baby...this is our daughter and Colin's little sister.  

I'm a little sister, but I was blessed with TWO awesome older brothers.  Maybe I needed extra watching over! 

So, you may wonder if we had any feelings one way or the other.  I was on the fence about it, to be honest.  Another boy would be so simple because we have all the boy stuff already AND it is going to be the same season when baby 2  is born.  BUT, I thought that it would be so much fun to have a little girl, too.  A boy could play with Colin, but so can his sister.  

Kevin, on the other hand, was convinced she was a she from the very beginning.  It was so cute, actually, when he told me.  We were in the middle of saying prayer before bed and after we said "amen," Kevin exclaims "It's a girl!!"  He said he felt strongly during the prayer that our little bean was a girl and he's been sticking to it ever since.  

In case you were keeping track, Kevin is now two for two!  After I announced to my family the gender (which we just found out about this morning), my brother Steve sent a text back that says to never doubt Kevin.  I don't think I can, now!  And yes, Kevin was a little smug about it!!

So there you have it!  Expect to see a possibly redheaded little Grady girl around Thanksgiving time!

We couldn't be more excited!
