Baby GIRL Stockhoff

You read the title right.  We are expecting a baby girl.  As many of you may guess, that means I am about 19 weeks along.  I haven't necessarily been keeping it a secret, but I wasn't as eager this time around to announce the news.  Yesterday we went in for our ultrasound, and the verdict is clear (at least to the doctor it was) - we will have a baby girl joining our family at the beginning of April, and we couldn't be happier.

My exact due date is April 13th, but because we will be doing a repeat c-section, the date will be closer to around April 6th! 

We are especially happy to report that she looks perfectly healthy.  I am very grateful for the technology we have to be able to see our baby before she is even born.  I know she will be adorable!

Thanks to all of you who offered your well wishes on mine and Andy's facebook.  We are so lucky to have so many supportive friends and family!

Oh Noah!

I am sure I have titled a post 'Oh Noah!' in the past, but sometimes that is the only way to describe it!  He is at a funny stage, I love it (most of the time). 

He LOVES cars...besides loving the movie, he just loves cars in general.  Walking through the parking lot, playing with his toys....he always points them out.   This is what he does with his toy cars, and trust me , he has a system to it. 

The other day, Andy was helping him line them up on the coffee table.  Noah kept protesting and whining when Andy would put a car in line.  He couldn't figure out what Noah wanted, later Andy realized that he hadn't put the cars all in the same direction.  Once he fixed the problem Noah was as happy as a clam.  Noah is so observant and takes great care of his cars.  I think it's so cute!

I am not sure how to describe these pictures.  Andy helped Noah put the blanket on his head, but Noah walked around like this for at least 5 minutes.  We were cracking up.

Sometimes all you can say is, "Oh Noah!"  and leave it at that.
