Surprise, Surprise!

In life there are happy surprises and not-so-happy surprises... we've had our fair share of both lately but the happy surprises are quite happy, so now that we are finally catching up with our own life, we thought we would share them!

In February we were SURPRISED to find out we are expecting another baby!
Babies are happy surprises :)
We figured out the due date would be somewhere in late September, possibly early October.
Due to many scheduling conflicts between my doctor and I, we weren't able to have our first appointment until I was about 15 weeks along... 
At that first appointment we were also surprised to find out that I was actually a month farther along than we thought and we are having another....
GIRL!
Quite the first appointment!
I had Tyler come and we brought the kids along so they were able to see their baby sister in the ultrasound. Parker was amazed and ecstatic. I wasn't sure how he would feel now that he is actually old enough to understand what was going on. He loved seeing her move on the ultrasound screen and afterward he carried the pictures around talking about how he has a baby sister in his mommy's tummy. Now the pictures are hanging on the fridge and he will still point to her and ask me if I love that baby in my tummy. I'll say "Yep, I love that baby, just like I love you!" and he'll say "I love her too!"
He is already such a a great big brother to Rylan. These two little girls are very lucky to have him around.

I don't think my little Ry Pie knows what she has coming in a  few short months. She will not be the only little princess around the Pooley home! Right now she loves to point out babies, give my belly kisses and and play with her own baby dolls. I am very excited for her to have a sister because my sister is my best friend!

So my new due date is August 29... just 10 days after Rylan's 2nd Birthday. This may be the only time I hope that my baby will be late! I want there to be as much time in between the girl's birthdays as possible because I have a feeling they are going to have to share a lot of things in life!

And that is it for now. Hopefully we'll have more happy surprises ahead!

Here are some Easter pictures, just for fun!







In other news, my best friend and sister is getting married! I am so excited for her. Her fiancé Eric seems to fit into our family very well and I'm excited for them to experience all of the wonderful blessings of an eternal and happy marriage.


Aren't they cute?
