The votes are in. The winner is...............

Sorry dad Adams. As much as your grandsons are outnumbered 3:1, we are only adding to your beautiful granddaughter population. But at least we can say we did our part in having a boy. Jack is loving the attention he gets from his sisters. I'm not sure how he will react to being ousted from his baby spot in the family. The doctor also moved the due date back to April 24 - same day as Jon and Erin, and the same day as Aunt April's birthday.

Make a guess

A lot has happened in the last month. But before I get to that, please take a look at the above picture. Dr. Sharon was so kind as to do an ultrasound yesterday at our appointment (sorry Jon & Erin for making your appointment late!) The baby was not very cooperative with a cute face shot, but was very accomadating in letting us know if he/she was a boy or girl. Jon & Erin were able to figure it out from this picture. Since they haven't had any children yet (i.e. never interpreted an ultrasound) everyone else should be able to get it too. Just leave a comment with your guess, and we'll see how many get it right!

As for what else has happened......

Jenny participated in her 5th grade "Waxless Wax Museum" Thursday night. Each student was assigned a person, place, or thing from the revolutionary war to portray. The wax students stood in the "museum" (school hall) and the parents walked through. If they were interested in learning more about that person, place, or thing, you pushed the button on the floor in front of them. Jenny was Abigail Adams. Fortunately we found an appropriate dress at Savers (thrift store). Unfortunately I forgot to take the camera with us to the museum, so I'll update the blog later with that. She was definitely the most beautiful girl in the museum.

Lydia participated in the school Geography Bee after winning in her classroom. She came in second place (last year she was disappointed in taking 4th because that meant no medal). All of her cramming really paid off - although, I'm not sure she will remember it all. Again, I forgot to take the camera to capture the exciting moment, so I will take a picture of the victor and her medal and update the blog later.
