Name Reveal!

I know you've all been anxiously anticipating the name of our third child. I still can't believe that we're going to have 3 children in 16 short weeks. Even though it seems like we shouldn't have a lot to do, we have so much to get ready before the baby comes. We need to get our basement finished and find a place in Olivia's room for the crib... which we still need to get Chase out of (he sleeps in it occasionally). Olivia's closet also need some more shelving so that we have room for both girl's clothing. 

Let's not draw this out any longer. ;-)

Here is baby girl's name!

Almost done!

4th letter! 

Letter #3

Here is the next letter! ;)

Now you can see the color scheme I'm going for with her letters.

Name Game

Ever since finding out that we are having a girl, we have been throwing around names trying to find something that goes well with the other children's names. A few weeks ago we finally got a name chosen! I know there are some couples who keep the name secret until the baby is born, but we haven't done that with either of our other children and this one is no exception. I also have had a little tradition of making letters for the kid's room and while making the letters for the baby's room, I decided that I would reveal the letters one at a time until the whole name is spelled out. 

Today is the first day and here's the first letter!

Gender reveal! :)

My wonderful sister in law, Kate Bro (Discover.Create.Live), was kind enough to take some time out of her evening to come over and take some photos of our gender reveal. It wasn't a huge deal, but the photos are super cute!

Walking over to the box.

Olivia was excited to open the box, even though you can't really tell.

Chase decided he wanted in on the action.

Posing with the balloons.

Chase still doesn't care too much. :-P

It's true! We'll be adding another little princess to our family! 

Olivia hasn't even entertained the though that the baby could have been a boy. She's told us from day 1 that "I want a girl. And we'll name her Rapunzel." Don't worry, we'll come up with a different name for our baby girl. ;-)
