The boys are getting a little sister and her name is Lydia! We got to see Lydi on Friday at my ultrasound. I was 17 w 6 d and she looked heathly and adorable. We brought the boys with us and Payton sat at watched the TV screen with the ultrasound of his baby the whole time. Kellen was mostly oblivious and just sat in the stroller eating his lunch. It was such a great experience. I have been feeling so different this pregnancy so part of me suspected a girl, but since a boy is all we have ever known I inadvertantly called her "he" for a long time (and still sometimes do!) One of my best friends who has a three girls just found out she is having a boy, so we will have lots of stuff to trade :)
Here are a few of the ultrasound picture
It is a girl!

These are the balloons that Payton showed up at his Grandma's works with to announce the big news!
Here are a few more of the boys:

16 weeks
17+ weeks
I can feel her moving quite a bit now, but I don't think I am showing quite as much as I was with the boys. I am currently at my starting weight. I had gained 2 lbs, but I had the flu last week so I am back to even. I am sure the weight will start to pile on soon though! We rented a doppler for a month and we have had fun listening to Lydi's heartbeat and hearing her move all over. Payton loves to use it to talk to her.
