twig and berries

when we were in ca last weekend one reason why bren came out too was because i HAD to do an early ultrasound at the same place we found out what we were having w/ carter and savanna. i'm a fan of traditions, so it was fun to find out at the same place for this little babe too. i also get too anxious to wait for a 20 week ultrasound to find out, so 16 weeks is pretty much my max. i've taken forever to post it because we had trouble scanning the pics but as you can see it's another boy! i'm not gonna lie i was a little bummed because i was really hoping for a sister for savanna, but we haven't had a baby boy in the house for 4 years, so it sounds kinda fun to do the baby boy thing again. and carter couldn't be more excited. he's known all along. we shall see if he's the final addition to the bates motel. here are some pics of our little guy!

Congrats! I am like you and don't want to wait a second longer than absolutely necessary. Carter will probably have a blast with a younger bro, and I am sure Savanna will enjoy it too! Do you have any names picked out?

dana said...

It will be fun to see another little bates boy. And I have all sorts of boy clothes to give back to you! Thanks for letting us borrow them.
Congrats!

Danielle said...

Yay, you guys! That's awesome. Nothing better than two little boys being mischievious together =)

Rachael, I know yo wanted a baby girl, but im telling you boys are so sweet, and carter is going to love having a baby brother and so will little savy! She will be so protected by her brothers, and will always be your little princess! I was the only girl with 3 brothers, and LOVED it! But maybe me and you will have to go for #4 @ the same time!! FUN!! :) Love you girly

You will love your new little man just as much as you would a girl!! I'm not sure how many kids I want either. Don't want anyone to be the odd-man-out, but can't wrap my head around 4 kids....we shall see. Congrat's again!

Lamb Fam said...

So fun that Carter gets a brother!
I wanted a girl with Tolman and a boy with Addi, and couldn't be more THRILLED that I didn't get either. Funny how things go. Anyway, Love you lots and one of these days we need to get together!

Boys are fun! The best part is you only care what it is until you have him and then you can't imagine life without him. Congrats!

debra said...

Congrats! That is so exciting- and I love that you kept with the tradition and had the ultrasound and the same place with all 3 pregnancies!

Another boy! I know that's not what you were hoping for but we did boy, girl, boy, and I loved it. The brothers are such good buddies and Kenley did get her sister. You never know what lies ahead :)! I'm excited for you!

Kennedy said...

Congrats! That is so awesome! Boys are great!

DEANNA said...

YEAH FOR YOU GUYS. I AM SORRY IT IS NOT YOUR NEXT LITTLE GIRL BUT THAT RIGHT THERE TELLS US YOU ARE NOT DONE!

I REALLY THINK YOU WILL LOVE HAVING YOUR GIRLIE SANDWICHED BETWEEN TWO BROTHERS THAT WILL PROTECT AND LOVE HER!

I HOPE YOU ARE FEELING GREAT. ARE YOU STILL WORKING OUT AS MUCH?

Karis said...

Cool Pics!! He's going to be a cutie!

Becca said...

That's awesome!Honestly you make me want to be pregnant again!!!Is that crazy or what! As much as i dislike being pregnant, there's nothing like it!

Busy B Preschool said...

I am excited for you guys. I loved being surrounded by brothers. You won't have any drama when they get older too.

Pattijean said...

Got it right, eh? 2 boys and a girl yet I've always had a huge feeling that there would be twin boys somewhere - maybe the one lost in 1979 and this one or Adri's or Bates Biscuits? Just random thoughts. Congratulations to the whole family. Love, kisses and hugs.How about Brennan as a middle name with a one syllable first name? Have fun...names are important.

teresa said...

Hey.... ain't nothin' wrong with two boys and a girl (wink, wink). Watching Cooper and Alex play together is one of my favorite things -- right up there with watching them ADORE (sometimes too much!) their sister.

Kari said...

I'm so lame that I'm just barely seeing these pics of your cutie! Way cute boy. I love your title! So excited for you! We had fun yesterday. Thanks again!!

Mama Bear said...

keep counting.....
