Baby girl Barron!

We know of course that the most important thing is that we have a healthy baby at the end of all this!  However we have been anticipating this appointment from the day we found out we were pregnant again!!  We went to the doctor last week, October 23 for our big ultrasound screening where we would find out the gender of our sweet baby.  We have both been thinking we were for sure having another boy from even before we were pregnant.  All of the silly little gender predictor tests that we have done also say boy.  So we both had it in our heads that we were definitely having another boy!  Needless to say we were a bit surprised when the ultrasound tech said we were definitely having a baby GIRL!!!  I think I was more shocked than Brian and it it took me a couple of days to wrap my head around the fact that we weren't having another boy but a girl!  We are beyond excited and can't wait to see how different it will be raising a sweet baby girl!  I already went and ordered her bedding (yes pink of course) and am envisioning her whole nursery in my head!  The only problem that we seem to be having is agreeing on a girl name... We decided and agreed on Brayden from the very beginning but are having a very difficult time finding a girl name we both like!  Good thing we still have about 20 weeks to get it figured out :)  Here are a few pics from last Tuesday:

Before the ultrasound, and yes it actually was a coincidence that I was wearing pink and Brian blue
Sweet baby girl :)

So cool, look at her profile!

This one's the money shot, nothing between those legs!!!


Everything with baby girl looks great and she is right on track with where she should be to deliver on March 13.  I am feeling great and am enjoying this period before I get too big and uncomfortable!  We are on a once a month schedule right now and are heading back to the Dr. the week of Thanksgiving.  We are just so thankful that she looks like she is developing how she should and continue to pray for a healthy baby.

ROAR! Halloween 2012

We thought this may be the last year that we get to pick out Brayden's Halloween costume for him so I wanted something adorable, cuddly, and still very baby!  I know that in the next couple of years there will probably be a lot of superhero's and masks that wouldn't be my first choice!!!  We decided on a lion because it was cute but also because Brayden does a pretty good lion roar that is hilarious!  We went back to our neighborhood where all of our neighbors get together for a big fun block party.  I know I say this all of the time but it is amazing how much more fun holidays are when you have a little one to enjoy it with!  Here are some pics of our sweet little lion :)


Within minutes of getting to the party our son (no surprise) found something with wheels to play with and proceeded to play with this scooter most of the evening!  

Just look at that smile!
SWEET Colten is so good with our Brayden!!!

Daddy gave him a ride
Sharing the scooter with pretty little Dylan
Another ride from Colt

And wipeout!  Haha!!
We realized poor buddy was sweatin in his suit so we went with the mane off most of the night!
Happy Halloween 2012
 Then we took Brayden for his time trick-or-treating!  It was so much fun to watch his reactions and see what candy he chose!!

Walking up to the first house


And buddy thinks that he needs to go inside!!!

A few tears when mommy made him come back outside!!!  After this house he got the hang of it pretty good!


Clinging tightly to his bucket!


And...my favorite of the day, love this precious face :)

Sweet boy had a Halloween hangover after a late night of partying he slept till 9 this morning, buddy needs his 12 hours!!  We got to eat his candy this year but I am sure next year Brayden will have something more to say about that!!!
