The One with the Gender

I took the IntelliGender test a couple of months ago, and the results said we were having a girl.

Well, it turns out IntelliGender isn't so intelligent after all. At our ultrasound we saw that we are definitely NOT having a girl, but a little boy instead!

We couldn't be happier...except I do feel a little sad for Tatum that she won't have a sister.

The One with the Brotherly Love

Tatum is lucky to have such a loving big brother...

most of the time, anyways.

Like when he's not messing her hair up, taking things from her, or bossing her around.

He did, however, come up with the cutest nickname for her on his own: Tatey Totty.

The One with the Belly

I've had several requests for some belly pics, so here ya go!

I'm 17 weeks along now and still kind of in that awkward stage where I may be pregnant, or I may just eat a little too much and never do sit-ups.

I also discovered that I didn't have morning sickness as bad as I thought I did, but instead a pregnancy induced lactose intolerance. Thanks to an allergy treatment by Dr. D, even that is starting to go away.

Talan is very excited to have a little brother or sister, and likes to get in on all of the action.

The One with the Two Dads

Talan is in this phase where he looooves his dad.

Which means his mom, not so much.

First, he told Steve, "Let's throw momma away."

Then, a few days later in Sam's Club he asked me if we could buy a new mom there.

Finally, on the way home from church he kindly informed me that he doesn't even want a mom, just two dads.

And to top it all off, he hasn't called me momma for about 6 months. I am now Kimmy. That's alright though; I love Talan and know that he really loves me!

The One with the Computer Nerd

Steve is the coolest nerd I know.

He can fix everything from computers to hair straighteners to dishwashers.

He also gets to work on high towers

and drive this van around.

But he's not the only one to drive a cool van.

The One with the Burritos

When Steve is watching the kids and they get too wild, he wraps them up so they can't move.

And they love every second of it.

The One with Christmas

Christmas was awesome, as usual.

The kids got to spend lots of time with their Henling cousins.

We could definitely use some more girls on this side of the family.

The kids also got some neat presents

like a bike,

a kitchen,

and a tee pee, among other things.

I love this Christmas video about the true meaning of Christmas, and know that you will too.
