Baby 3 on the way!!

We found out on July 25th we are expecting Baby Cossey number 3!!  It was a shock since it took over 2 years to get pregnant with the girls and only one month this time!!  Mima took the girls for the weekend so CR and I could finally get some stuff (painting and organizing) done around the house.  We have been on the go every weekend since we moved to Haughton, LA (a month ago).  So, we painted (with oil based paint...oops) and updated some parts of the house (took down wallpaper) over the weekend and on Sunday afternoon, I was cleaning/unpacking some more stuff in the Master bath.  While, doing that I found a pregnancy test and thought, "What the heck?"  Sure enough, before the 3 three minutes were up there were TWO lines!!  I was SHOCKED to say the least.  I went to the living room (CR was taking a nap) and put the test in his hand and jumped on the couch (he was in his chair).  In just a few seconds, he woke up and couldn't figure out what was in his hand but when he did he SHOT up out of the chair saying, "ARE YOU SERIOUS? IS THIS WHAT I THINK IT IS?"  Me just shaking my head (still in shock) he noticed that the lines were blue and with the girls the lines were pink so he thought "Boy!"  I told him that doesn't matter at all, it's just the type of test.  Anyway, we then had to get ready to meet mom and get the girls.  We met her for dinner and gave her a thank you card for keeping the girls and signed it "CR, MJ, Hannah, Hayley & Baby Cossey (due March 2011).  She was just as shocked as we were!!  We made her promise to keep a secret until we could tell his family the next weekend. 


Fast forward to the next weekend (July 30-August 1).  It's the Cossey vacation (we had it here in Louisiana since there are so many babies this year we decided it would be best not to take them all out to the lake).  I had shirts made for the girls to wear that said "Future Big Sister" on them to wear when they showed up.  Here they are in the car on the way...
We tried to get a good pic of the girls in their shirts...
Then, a few weeks later after doctor appointment's to send out cards to everyone.  On the front it said, " We just wanted you to know..." (With this picture on it)
The inside read, "And we are SO excited!" (With this picture)... 
We can't wait until November when we find out if baby is a boy or girl!!
