Baby number four is a . . .

We went for our gender check ultrasound just over a week ago and we found out the baby is a BOY.  I cried a little, Abby was disappointed, Carter was happy,  Dean had no preference and Grant had no idea what was going on. 
I know the Lord send us the spirits that are supposed to come to our family and I came to terms with having one girl and three boys. 

UNTIL. . .

Today I went in for my mid-pregnancy ultrasound at Kaiser.  The lady doing our ultrasound asked if we wanted to know the gender of the baby and we told her that we went in for a gender check and already knew it was a boy. 

So, she started the ultrasound and she asked, "You said boy?"  "I am sorry but they were wrong, this baby is a GIRL."  I was in shock.  Just yesterday I was looking at boy names online.  I just stared at the screen then Dean came over and shook my leg and said, "We are having a girl." 

She proceeded with the ultrasound then said she wanted to check one more time.  I told her I was getting ready to give away all of Abby's clothes I have been saving for all of these years and she said don't give them away.  She said that she has been doing this a very long time and she was confident enough to tell us to paint the room pink. 

So, now that I am completely unsure one way or the other I am going to check with my doctor and see if it would be okay to have one more ultrasound because I don't feel certain one way or the other.  Although if I were betting it would be girl.

Grant Has Some News

Grant has some exciting news.  He is going to be a big brother!  Two weeks after we moved into the new house I found out I was pregnant. 

I am now 16 weeks along and feeling good and I have some of my energy back.  I had a while in the beginning that I was pretty sick but things are going well now. 

We are pretty excited to find out the gender of the baby.  Abby really wants a sister and I am tired of crazy, wild, dirty, stinky boys so I would like another girl too.

We are also wondering if we will even the Dockstader/Ortiz score.  Right now Dean and his clone Carter are outnumbered by brown eyed Ortiz's.  Will baby number four be another blue eyed Dockstader? 

Well, we will be able to answer one of our questions soon.  We have an appointment this Saturday to find out pink or blue and I can't wait. 

What do you think baby #4 will be?  Take the poll! --------->
