boy or girl

When I was pregnant with Auburn we thought it would be a girl because of my little niece.  She was four at the time and before we knew that we were expecting a baby, she did.  At a family reunion she repeatedly told me that there was a baby in my belly.  I laughed, and told her she was confusing me with her Mom, who was expecting a baby girl.  She was persistent and told me that it was a baby girl.  Well a few days later, we took a test and she was right - a baby!  We were thrilled!  We figured if she was right about the baby then she was probably right about gender.

I had a strong feeling before I was pregnant with Conley that we were going to have another girl.  When I became pregnant with Conley I just knew that it was a boy.  I told Simon that my feeling had changed and this was for sure a boy.  When the doctor told us that we would be having a little boy I wasn't surprised at all.

As for this baby, I have felt from the beginning that it is going to be a girl.  Maybe this might be the little girl that I have felt would come to our family.  Conley wanted a boy and Auburn wanted a girl, Simon just maintained that there is a 50/50 chance.  Well today we went for the ultrasound and..... it's a girl!  She is healthy and strong and we are so excited to meet her this summer!

Mexico - Mayan ruins II

Simon's parents had to get back to their mission in Mexico City and we continued on our trip.  We saw a lot of ruins, 9 in total.  This is the next post of Mayan ruins.  It was actually great for the kids as well.  They could run around, climb and explore. It was interesting to see the differences at each sight.  The kids had their favorites by the end of the trip.  We also taught them a little bit about Mayan culture. Edzna   These well preserved carvings were great.       Palanque These were probably my favorite ruins.  It is set in the jungle and it felt very peaceful there. It is hard to believe that only 10 percent of the structures are actually uncovered.  The rest are still covered by the jungle. some well preserved carvings waterfalls in the middle of the ruins The Palace   Temple of Inscription   The kids had a great time climbing up and exploring...

Sienna Corinne was born at 8:02 am at the Rotkreuzklinikum in Munich.   She weighed 3.7 kilos and was 52 cm long.  She is incredibly sweet and a very peaceful baby.  Auburn and Conley are in love with her. She has been smothered with kisses by them and everyone in the family wants to snuggle with her.
