Boy or Girl?

Can you guess what we're having....watch this little video and you'll soon find out.

Yep, it's true, we are having a BABY GIRL! As you can tell from the video the boys aren't too excited at the news of a baby sister. I was hoping that the candy would help distract them and keep them happy, but they had their minds already set on a boy. At the end of the video Hyrum even says, "I hate girls." Yikes! I think we've got our work cut out for us. A few nights ago before bed we were talking to the boys about whether our baby was a boy or girl and here's what they said:





Hyrum- "If it's a girl I'm going to smack myself in the face."


William- "It's a boy because we only have boy toys."


Thomas- "Babee"





I guess since boys is all they're used to (besides all the friends and cousins they have which are girls) it's going to take a little bit to convince them that a sister will be just as fun.





As for Dave and I, we're just tickled to be having a girl. I absolutely love my boys and would have loved a 4th, yet I have to admit that I've been giddy and smiling all day just thinking about our precious little one. I suppose a whole new world of adventures lies ahead for us, but for now I'm just going to soak in all the joy of the moment!

I am so excited for you!! What a cute way to tell your boys too. I am sure they will come around and be so protective of her when she comes. I am so happy for you! Now we will have boys close in age and now a little girl close in age. Too bad we don't live closer.
