It's a Girl!!!

We were going to wait to find out if the baby was a boy or girl, but it was too tempting, and I wanted to give the baby some identity!  It was hard picturing the baby when it could be a boy or a girl and Tim and I have a hard time agreeing on baby names so I wanted to be able to focus on just one name.

Gracie has been telling us the whole time that the baby is a girl.  She even made a picture of our family in Sunbeams and had the baby in a pink blanket.  When we would say something like, "What if it's a boy?" she would always say, "I know it's a girl!"  Haha!  She was right! 

During the ultrasound, the nurse was having a hard time seeing the lower back and right after she told us this, the baby moved so that she could see her lower back.  Very obedient already!!!  I know it's hard to make predictions based on ultrasound photos, but I think her profile looks a lot like Lindsey's!

You can't see in this picture but the onesie on the balloon says baby girl.  We brought home these balloons to announce the big news!  The kids didn't know what to think and Lindsey was confused and said, "The baby came out your belly?"  We're excited to have another beautiful baby girl!

Corless Reunion!!!

All of the Corless Clan were able to get together last week and we had so much fun! Kirsten will be starting school in Tuscaloosa so the whole family decided to make a trip of it.  We are so glad everyone was able to come!  Here's the new family picture.

Eating at IHOP after picking Grandma and Granddad up from the airport in Nashville.

The girls got all dressed up and Gracie was acting so shy when they came to the living room to show everyone.

Cooper kept putting Matt's shoes on.

Cute kids wearing their Dad's sunglasses when we all ate at Logan's Roadhouse.  I got a lot of these pictures from Grandma's camera.  Thanks!

Kirsten recently visited Disneyland and Elizabeth was in Italy so they brought back gifts for all of us!  Thanks so much!

The girls loved reading stories on Aunt Elizabeth's Nook.

Grandma in front of one of the houses she lived in as a girl in Huntsville AL.

Free movie - Monsters vs Aliens!  All summer this theatre does free movies on Monday and Wednesday mornings.  It's been a lot of fun!

Birmingham Zoo!

Poor Coop got sunscreen all in his eyes so they were all red and he just squinted the whole time.  After his nap at the zoo he was doing a lot better and by the end of the day his eyes were back to normal.  Thank goodness!  I was so worried and sad for him!

My favorite was this Orangatan (sp?) with her new little baby!

Train ride at the zoo!

Huntsville Space and Rocket Museum.

This was some kind of dinosaur claw challenge/game.

Waiting in line to pay when we got the news that their machines were down and we would all be admitted for free!!!  How blessed!  It was going to cost $20 each.

The kids had a blast playing with a bunch of rocket launchers and toys!

I got busy taking pictures and poor Cooper was stuck in the stroller watching the girls play.  He looks so sad!  Once I realized, I let him out to play too.

This ride said it was prohibited if you had back problems, were pregnant, had motion sickness, etc.  That eliminated most of us from participating!  Haha!

While the kids were playing, Lindsey started squatting and dancing all around.  This was our first outing with her in big girl panties so I scooped her up and raced to a bathroom.  She made it!  I was afraid she wouldn't go on a strange potty, but she did it!

We are so glad that everyone got to gather together and we had such a good time!  The kids loved all the extra attention and love!  Thanks so much for coming everyone!  We love and miss you!
