A bonus is that it is an 8-seater van -- it has a stowable 2nd-row seat if we desire. (We'll be storing it since we'll need Jay to have access to the 3rd row once baby #3 arrives. I like a good bonus item that we weren't expecting.)

Our "New" Used Van!
We are now the owners of a 2006 Slate Green Metallic Honda Odyssey EX!

It's a Girl!!
On Friday afternoon, March 23, 2012 I went in for my 20 week ultrasound to learn how this 3rd baby is developing and to hopefully get a glimpse about whether this little bundle of joy was a girl or boy.
My Mom, Amy, arrived on Thursday for an extended weekend with us (she left late afternoon Saturday). It was special to have her in the room to witness the ultrasound (just like it was special to have PopPop Jim and Nana Carol at the ultrasound when we learned we were expecting a boy as baby #2 -- David).
As we sat there in the room looking at the ultrasound screen, Mom told us it was 35 years ago (her birthday in 1977) that she had an x-ray taken to "see" my twin sister Molly and me for the first time (approximately 1-1/2 months before she delivered). The doctor 35 years ago wanted to make sure we were both head down (we were) in preparation for her impending delivery. They couldn't tell gender because of it being an x-ray, but she experienced her first look at her twin girls that day. I thought it was pretty cool that 35 years later (to the day) she got her first glimpse at her first granddaughter.
It was yet another reminder that God's timing is perfect in every way!
(The white blob seen above her eyes/nose is her right hand. The black blob in her chest is her heart.)
