Who is this baby?

Alright, alright, the wait is over for those of you wanting to know exactly what we are having (other than a baby) Here is the Ultrasound at 14 and1/2 weeks:
And here is the Wall-E cake for Brinley's baptism that revealed the gender:
The cake reads: Congratulations Brinley on your Birthday, Baptism, and Baby Sister! That's right-Cooper will be a Prince among Princesses as he will be the only boy in our family. We were all very surprised and have been anticipating what our family dynamic will be with one more girl! Good thing I saved all those bins of girl clothes. We are still working on a name, we had one picked for a boy but now we are trying to agree on one for a girl. I think girl names are a lot harder! So how could the ultrasonographer tell it was a girl at only 14 weeks? He was really good and it was pretty obvious. Next week I will have another ultrasound at 20 weeks and it should be even more clear then. Hopefully nothing has sprouted between then and now!
Here are some more pictures of our beautiful snow princess in her white baptism day dress.

We had lots of fun this weekend with all of our family in town for her baptism. On Saturday we went sledding to our new favorite snow park-Winoga, on the way up to Mount Bachelor. It was really icy and everyone went really fast. I sat on the sidelines watching. Brinley was a crazy sledder, I was worried she would break something! Duffy landed hard on his bottom off of a jump. Look at his face in the picture and you can see the pain. Kendall, Kaci and Aaron were real troopers going up that steep hill.






It was a beautiful day on Saturday and everything went so well. We wished everyone could have been there to enjoy the fun with us! We missed you!

Congratulations! I didn't know you were expecting and am so happy for you! I can't believe that Brinley is 8. Where has the time gone? We need to do a cousin outing very soon.

Congratulations!!!!!!!! It'll be interesting once the girls hit their teens or even just 11 (ughh Kiley). The kids are getting big. Cooper looks so grown up since the last time I saw him. He was just a baby!!! Time sure flies. Give the kids a hug for us! Smack Duffy for me and tell him to hug you for me. Miss you!!
