20 Weeks and Counting

So, for those few of you that don't know, I am pregnant again. Yes it was planned and yes, we did think we were done. That is what happens when you decide to pray and go to the temple to find out if you should have one more!!! Baby #5 will arrive on May 14th or sooner. I am now officially 20 weeks and on Monday I have my ultrasound!!! Ryan has been praying everyday that it will be a little boy. In fact just tonight he said "Only 2 more days to pray that it is a boy!!!" We shall see if the faith of a little boy is enough to break the Bell trend of little girls!! Anyway, I am just curious to see what your guess is as to what we are having. Pending the baby cooperates we should know by Monday night. At this point I can honestly say I am just praying for a healthy baby. I don't care boy or girl as long as I have that!! Time will tell.

Here is me at 3 1/2 months. I will have to take another one this week and you can see how much I have grown!! I am trying not to get too depressed with all the growth and weight gain. I am praying that I won't have another 9 lb baby. That recovery is just way too difficult!!!

CoNGRAtULatiONs on baby #5!!! How exciting for your family. I hope you get the boy Ryan is praying for! I'd love to get a baby girl one of these days. I love my boys, but a girl would be great. Anyway, hope you're feeling well and I can't wait to hear what you're having!

Congratulations! That is really exciting. Also, for Ryan's sake I hope it is a boy. He's been waiting awhile for one.

Hey Tamara congrats that is so fantastic. We are actually 28 wks along with number 3. Jacob wanted a boy and Megan wanted a girl and at our 20 wk ultrasound Megan got her wish. So good luck to Ryan! We sure had fun with you all in the Thorneberry Branch!

Tamara- Your faith will sustain you for adding one more baby to the family. Children need to come to good families like yours. ( That doesn't mean it will be easy - but the Lord will sustain you. Love Aunt Stephanie
