We are very happy and excited to be adding baby #3 to our family!! I had my first OB appointment last Wednesday and we were all able to go! Brynlee and Gracen are pretty excited about it.
I love going to the first appointment and being able to hear the baby's little heart beating...I have always felt so much happiness each time I have finally been able to hear that little sound!
This time, we were also able to see the baby. The place I am going to while we are in Utah is just awesome! My sister works there and the doctors are great! They give you a little DVD that you can bring in for every visit to record the ultrasounds on. It was fun to be able to see the baby, and I especially loved that we were all there for it!
Gracen loves to tell people that "Mommy has a baby in her belly!" And Brynlee is very excited about it too! She has actually been baby hungry a little longer than I have, she's been asking about and talking about when she gets a new baby sister for about 6 months now.
If you ask Gracen about what he saw at the doctor....
1. He'll tell you there were "one, two (while holding up his 2 fingers), two babies!"
There aren't 2 babies,but, there were 2 screens that he could see it on, so he claims that there are 2!
2. He'll say, "He was wiggling his bum!" and show you how it looked by wiggling his!
It was fun to see the baby moving around, usually mine haven't moved like that in the first ultrasound!
3. Sometimes he says it's a boy, sometimes he says it's a girl, and once he said it was a dragon!
What do you think???
We've decided not to find out what it is this time. Nate has never wanted to know, but I had a hard time with that and couldn't wait to find out! Since we have both, I think I can handle it!
Baby is due mid January, and I'm about 10 weeks along! I really haven't felt too terrible, just nauseated and tired but both are getting better!
We know this little one will be a great addition to our family, and will fit in with the rest of us just perfectly!

Yay! Congrats Erica! I can't believe you aren't going to find out...that would drive me crazy!! We will have another baby close in age! Yay!
SO exciting - Congratulations! I'm so glad to hear that you've been feeling great - or at least not tired of course aren't awesome feelings, but at least you're functioning ;). So cute about Gracen & Brynlee too. I think the only way I could handle not knowing what we'd be having is if I was in the same situation - already having a boy and a girl. So fun - and you're right, this little guy/gal is coming to a awesome family! Congrats again!!
Congrats Erica!! We didn't find out with our third either because we already had a boy and a girl. It was fun to wait and hear the verdict after Lauryn was born.!! So happy for you guys!!
Congratulations!! That's so exciting! I'm with Gracen, I think it might be a dragon ;).
Congrats Erica! I was wondering when you would be adding #3 to the mix. I bet Brynlee is super excited and will be the best helper. We would love to see this belly of yours in Utah, although I am sure my belly will beat yours in a size competition:).
Congrats to your family! We didn't find out what our last one was and it was fun!
Congrats! I am so excited for you guys.
Congratulations! I am so excited for you! Graduation and baby #3 - all within a few months - this is a very exciting year for the Thompson family =)
I am so happy for you and baby #3 although a little sad you are not finding out. I am glad everything is looking good. Now you should post a picture of Gracen wiggling his bum like the baby.
Congrats on baby #3! That is so exciting! How fun that you aren't finding out with this one! I have heard amazing stories of people during their deliveries who didn't find out. They have said it is just amazing!
congrats you guys! That is so exciting:) I know what dr you are talking about and I love that place too. How long are you guys in Utah for?
Gosh I hope it is not a dragon! That's so exciting for you guys. Glad you haven't felt too bad. Man, it seems like so many people have decided to not find out what they are having, I don't know if I could EVER do that!
Congrats!! My vote is for dragon... maybe even two of them :) Guess you won't know for sure until January!
how exciting!!!!! you'll have to tell me about the changes from 2 to 3. seriously.
Oh so excited for you guys. Can't wait to see some baby bump pictures.
Congratulations Thompson family. Really, too excited for you guys!!!
(I just wish I knew at graduation so I could have given you a hug and given you a squeal of excitement!) ;)
A dragon would be very interesting!
well congratulations! we are so happy for you. Hope all is going well in CO. I think keeping it a secret now that you have one of each would be fun!
