And the RESULTS ARE IN!!!

This morning our family loaded up and headed to the CDI Imaging Center to peek in on Baby Brightness to find out if Brightness wanted to share with us if he/she was a going to be our new son/daughter, brother/sister.

After anxiously waiting for 15 min or so and my bladder being COMPLETELY full of the water (that the sonographer requested for good results) we headed into the ultrasound room.

You are now invited to be in the room and my brain for the next few minutes...

(okay Jaime, for months you have tried not to guess or wish the sex of this baby... I've been wrong the first two times. I've even been struggling praying for a healthy baby. I really wanted whatever God wanted to bless us with...boy, girl, child with a disability, whatever he was giving, was going to be a true gift. And really, I have gotten so used to the idea of another girl. How sweet. And, me not having a son or a brother...I knew what to do with a girl)

Within seconds of the sonographer peeking in and working on diagnostics, she turned around sweetly and said...

"Now Daddy....."

(my heart sank, tears started swelling in my eyes in hearing her talk to Jarrett so gingerly...I knew before she even uttered the words)

"You are going to have a SON!"

(tears UNCONTROLLABLE at this point)!!!!

We looked at the screen and giggled (continuing to cry) as we saw the obvious proof. Daddy was SO proud! Jarrett's precious face lit up! Our eyes met immediately (all watery of course) and we couldn't stop smiling at each other! It was pretty surreal. I am pretty sure we stared at the screen for the next hour continuing to make sure it wasn't a mistake. AND IT WASN'T :)

Well, we have been on cloud nine all day in complete thankfulness and humbleness at the gift of life and for the surprising news that we will be adding another man to the Largaespada family!

There is not much more that I can think of to say...

I just keep smiling :)

Thank you Jesus for our gift!

Fun in the Sun!

Last week was Spring Break and it was the perfect time for a Beach Trip! Living so close to the Florida East Coast makes it quite convenient to hop over for a few hours to get some rest and relaxation in the sand, waves, and under the sun! My kids LOVE the beach!

Annalise and Abbie and had fun playing in the waves! Too bad these girls had to stay in the shallow end to ride them. Because we had the little ones with us, Jessica and I had to stay on shore and couldn't take the little dare devils out any further. So, it looks like a family beach trip is in order soon so that Daddy and Annalise can take the deeper wave challenges!

Oh my! Are these two cute or what?!?!?! My goodness!

We are looking forward to MANY more beach days to come!

It is definitely one of our favorite places to be!

This crew, along with Cassie and my nieces and nephew, went to the beach again yesterday! If gas prices could just lower, I might find myself there weekly!
