the 411 on mak: streams of mercy never ceasing~

Wow, what a week! It's been good but busy. Shelby and Addy have lived with us just over a week but it feels much longer! Having them around is fun (: On Sunday we went to the fair and Dyllan came with us; it was HOT!! But mostly fun, and very crowded. I think the kids enjoyed it anyway, which is all that matters <3

Friday was no fun. I was having pain in my side that moved up to my chest, so we had to go to the ER (since the general practitioner can't do anything but an x-ray, which you can't get when pregnant). We were there for sooo long, just to find out nothing was wrong. Thankfully the pain was random, but I felt silly for even going in. We got to see our baby on a sonogram though, which was fun.

Yesterday I finally got the sex confirmed! The sonographer was only 80% sure, but I'll take 80% (; Of course my suspicions were right, and we're having a girl!! Yayy [: Everyone at work was asking me how I was so sure that she was a girl, and how I turned out to be right. I told them I just knew; I knew with Joshua too. I think I'm just very intuitive (; Shelby shares my "gift" of determining the gender of people's babies..

Since Oleg couldn't be at the ultrasound with me, I wanted to surprise him with the sex of our baby. It wasn't quite as fun because we all knew the gender, but I got creative (;
