The Piercing Pain of Reality
Our Nebraska Trip was one of several emotions at once. To pin point how it went??... Well that is almost near to impossible to put into words, however, the highlight of what meant the most to us was to see and visit with our Nebraska friends that we call Our Nebraska Family. It was such a joy and delight to go to a place of Friends; that have been an amazing support to us since the day we arrived to the unknown Midwest back in 2007. We tried to target our trip with visiting our favorite (positive) memories that we have with Caleb. However as we went to all these places almost ALL were under construction, that was very difficult to see. Didn't think within 2 years there would be so much change, not what we thought we would see, it was a piercing pain. Our hopes of visiting that past was slashed, and we are now living a painful reality that we can never go back, not even to Nebraska to find home. But we would still move back for the people... Oh how we love those Nebraskans!

Boys Out Numbered
Liahona and I had the vote of the baby being a Boy.
Eric and Tamara had the vote of the baby being a Girl
For Eric's birthday, on the very day we had an ultrasound which was his only birthday gift. I walked in dragging my feet because I was the only one that didn't want to do this, Montey didn't really know what was going on so he could careless what we were doing. But ultimately I had to bring my physical body to the appointment for this birthday gift to be given... it took a lot from me emotionally to allow this.
Here we are at the appointment.
From this appointment Montey finally will answer, "Yes" when asked if there is a baby in my tummy, because prior he would always reply with "No".
Though I was slightly disappointed that we are not having our 2 boys and 2 girls that I am used to, and know how to do, I was yet slightly relieved that we are getting a girl. But I do not know how to raise 3 girls and 1 boy. This is completely weird to my mind, I am still having a hard time grasping this new change. I am hoping that by knowing the gender now that I will be more prepared when she comes in Dec to join our little family.
