Gingerbread.Announcement

A few days before Christmas we had some fun making gingerbread cookies. 

T. and K. loved helping us.

K. is such a ham right now!

T. preferred to help more than he wanted to look at the camera. 

T. absolutely loves to help us. 

K.loved clapping her hands, and dancing to the Christmas music we had playing.

Helping Daddy.

Cutting out the cookies.

K. eating some dough.

The finished cookies.

We are going to have a baby joining this family in Aug. 

Lord willing.

We are all so excited!

We had the funnest time announcing to our families that we were going to have a baby.

I just took the cookies along a sat them on the table at our family Christmas's and let people figure it out themselves. For some it wasn't hard to figure out and for others, well, it took them a little while. ;) 

The BEST 

Question that we got was:

What are the question marks for? 

Titus wanted to be able to listen to the heartbeat this time

and we thought it would be neat to be able to listen to it ourselves, so Titus did a lot of research and we decided to get a good but inexpensive fetal doppler.

It took me a few times of trying ( It never worried me that I couldn't find the heartbeat because the baby is so small, and I am not a pro), but at ten weeks we heard it.

Chug, chug, chug!

It sounds like a little train chugging along so fast.

Oh, I just love that sound!

It makes it so real to me when I finally get to hear it. 

I have the best husband, he spoils me sometimes.
