Bad News, Good News Day

So the girls woke up early this morning to go somewhere everyone dreads....the dentist. Bad News there. Charlotte kept waking up last night saying she was scared of the dentist. She has only been there once. But we were off early and the good news....neither one of them had any cavities. They were both really excited. Especially Savannah since she has had a cavity every other time we have been there. Hopefully this lucky streak will continue for many more years to come.

But the good news continues throughout the day. ...

Because we are 'awesome' parents, we let Savannah come to Target with us to pick out some birthday presents for this weekend. And even took her to lunch at chick-fil-a too. She thought it was lots of fun to play hookie from school.

Then Daddy said we had one more stop to make before taking Savannah back to school. We went to the doctors. But it wasn't a doctors for the girls, it was for mommy. They were fine with it, and happy to play games on our phones. Then I was called back and the whole gang came with. I got on the table and Savannah asks with a puzzled look on her face "Are they going to see if there is a baby in your belly?" I told her they sure are. To which Charlotte says "I hope its a baby brother". The tech tells her, you got it! So we gave the girls a big surprise today and let them know there will be a baby coming to our house the end of January/beginning of Feb. (Actual due date is 2/9 but with c/s might be in Jan)



They were really excited and happy. They had no idea we had been keeping this secret from them. While in the waiting room Chad asked Savannah what all these women had in common (A lot were really pregnant), She says..."Um...They all have purses?" She cracks me up.

So to those of you who read our blog you now know of the secret we have been keeping too for 16 weeks. Everyone else if just gonna miss out on the secret til it becomes obvious I guess. :)

Oh and Eric your dream was accurate last month .. :)

And a big 'I'm sorry' to all those I have lied to over the past few months. When you are a pregnant woman and you have several dreams about miscarrying, you tend to want to keep your mouth shut for a bit. It really freaked me out. But all is well ... So now that the girls know everyone else can too.

Congratulations!!!!!!!! I'm so excited for you! I don't know how on earth you could keep it a secret. The second I find out, it somehow jumps from my mouth before I realize I've said anything. And keeping it from my kids...that would never work. I'm amazed at your discipline.

Congrats again, and hooray that it's a boy! It's so much fun having both boys and girls!
