12 week sonogram

Right before Christmas break we went in for our 12 week sonogram and testing.  Here are some pictures of our little one. (I apologize for the lazy "pictures of pictures", I can't figure out my stupid scanner).


Doctor said everything looks normal and is measuring right on for a June 28th birthday!

Baby England waving hello!

Little feet all crossed

And we asked if the doctor could tell if it was a boy or girl, because at Jocelyn's 12 week, they were 95% sure she was a girl.  Not so much this time :(  He hem-hawed around for a while, tilted his head, jiggled my belly....and said he wasn't sure.  He did, however say that he was leaning toward a girl.  Not the 95% I was looking for, but we will find out soon enough.  We are just happy that first and foremost, Baby England looks healthy.  We are blessed! 


Christmas 2012

We had a great Christmas this year.  Having a 2 year old made it even more fun, as she kind of understood what was going on. 

 
The Sunday before Christmas, we made some yummy Christmas cookies!  We had a fun time decorating them too! 

Jocelyn did well at decorating UNTIL Aunt Blaire informed her that you could "eat" the decorations, then it went downhill from there.  She pretty much ate her weight in cookie decorations :)  Thanks, Aunt Blaire!!  Can't wait till you have little ones...


My little stinker in her monogram dress

Jocelyn got her first Vera Bradley purse....because every 2 year old needs one!  Her Aunt Kiki, cousin Cece and Uncle Doug loaded her purse with lots of goodies.  Her favorite being the chapstick that she loves to eat....Oh, and she wore the sunglasses to church...totally normal!

After church on Christmas Eve, we went to my parents for dinner and gifts.  We got some great news when we got there that my step brother and his wife are expecting their first child!!  Even crazier news is that their baby is due 3 days after Baby England!  This is going to be sooo cool to have our little ones so close in age!  Who knows, maybe the babies will have a pow wow and decide to come on the same day!


Poppy and his 2 granddaughters, this time next year he will have 4 (grandkids that is)

Jocelyn and her new baby "Alexa Rae" straight from the Cabbage Patch Kids Nursery in Georgia!

We just keep multiplying!  Pretty soon, we will have to have 2 tables!

We even put up a new stocking for Baby England

Cookies for Santa and a carrott for his reindeer

Loot from Santa.  If some of it looks familiar its because it probably is :)  We saved literally half of her birthday gifts and decided to give them to her later. 

On Christmas Day we went to Gramma and Grandaddy's house
Gramma's are so fun!  They let you blow bubbles in their house!

She loved unwrapping her gifts!

Derek's Aunt, Uncle and cousin drove all the way in from Illinois for Christmas!

We also got a white Christmas!  So beautiful!

Priceless!

 
 
We are excited to share the great news!!  We told our parents over Thanksgiving and gave each pair a copy of this framed picture.  It took them a few minutes to figure it out, but they were excited to hear the news.  Baby England's due date is June 28th, so I am 12 weeks right now.  I have a sonogram on Thursday for a screen and "hopefully" we can get an idea of what we are going to have?!  With Jocelyn's 12 week scan, they were able to tell us that there was a 95% chance we were having a girl.  SO....fingers crossed!!
 
We feel so excited and blessed that we are going to have another child.  Jocelyn has been an absolute blessing in our lives, and we can't wait to welcome another little one!
