Today was the day.
I honestly didn't need to go to my appt. to know what I am having.
I knew from the start.
I called my sister in-law yesterday and she asked what I thought.
I told her.
And I was DEF. right.
There is no way we are having anything other than a BOY.
Joseph and the kidlets joined me at the appt.
The kids were so good.
As soon as the tech said "It's a boy!"
Abbey screams "No no no it's supposed to be a girl! Her name is Olivia"
She starts crying and my heart was being ripped to shreds.
Ugh. So sad for her.
Joseph calmed her down. And I reminded her that she and Mommy are the princesses of the house.
We wear the fancy dresses, fancy shoes, jewelry and get our nails done.
We wouldn't have to take anyone else with us, just Mom and Abbey.
She loved it.
Now she is excited for our little Joshua and will proudly tell you,
"I'm having a baby brother Joshua Hugh and I don't have to share my princesses with him".
Love that girl.
Baby is healthy and measuring ahead *shocking i know*.
We are happy. We are blessed. We can't wait to meet him.

Exciting!...but how sad for Abby....at least she got over it rather quickly with some convincing!:) Can't wait to see your cute little Joshua!
Good thing we decided on Jacob instead of Joshua! I was so totally undecided though. I still find myself calling him Joshua on accident sometimes. I guess I have 20 more weeks to get it straight, huh? Congrats!!
O my goodness! what great news! And Joshua! how hot is that! I love that name! This is great! You are having another boy! good day for the Gillespies!
Congrats! Two boys and a girl--next try, maybe a girl...
My mom worked some similar magic on me when both of my younger siblings turned out to be boys. She promised I could do the same things with a brother as a sister. I took her word for it and dressed him up like Carey from Little House on the Prairie. Only once though. Turns out, it's not really the same. But it did make me feel better at the time, and then I had Annie and Char as pseudo little sisters. :)
Congratulations!! Another little boy...too cute. I feel so sad for Abby...the same thing happened to my older sister and her little girl. Can't wait to see pictures of the little Joshua!
Congrats...boys are so much fun! You'll have to tell me what to do with a little girl now!
Congrats! I'm sure Abby will have lots of fun being the princess with two knights to do her bidding. There are advantages to not having to share the throne just yet! :) Congrats again--we're glad to hear everything is going well.
