The 3rd graders were right!

A couple weeks ago when Heidi was in the cafeteria with her class--a very loud student from her class the previous year came up and said, "ARE YOU PREGNANT?" Loud enough for the whole world to hear. Heidi not wanting the entire world--nonetheless her to be the first student said, "hmm maybe."

After school another student from her class last year came in to her classroom and said, "I have one question--"Are you married." After receiving an affirmative answer said, "well are you having a baby?"

Heidi said, "Why would you think that?"
"Well Pona and Kidus" just think that you are." (Pona and Kidus were also in her class last year.)

I'm not even sure what a baby is. I just know that you say it in a high excited voice and I know that it has

feet:
arms:
legs:
a behind,a face:

And I know that it's going to be a girl!!!
(Maybe Ginny, Tabea, Hannah, Annie, Bella, Annabell, Julianne, or who knows?)

I'm not sure how the 3rd graders knew but Heidi's had this baby thing going on for 19 weeks. I'll get to meet her in April. Until then I'll just have to pretend like I know what's going on when everyone gets so excited.

So if you're ever wondering--just ask a third grader. They seem to have a sense about these things.

OH MY GOODNESS! Congratulations you guys!!! How exciting, a little girl. Aw, you guys will be such good parents. So are you due end of March-ish? I hope you're feeling good. Those ultrasound pics are so cute.

Congratulations!! I am so excited for you guys! Those are the cutest ultra sound pictures I have ever seen! You guys are going to be the best parents to this little girl.

That is GREAT news! Congrats! I too hope you have been feeling ok this whole time too and hope that it is a girl, since that is what you think it is. They told me sam was a girl at first, but i think i always knew he was boy. mother's intuition i guess. Let us know when you start to feel the bubbles (baby moving)...or maybe you have already. its such a cool feeling.

Yay Heidi! I am so happy for you two! Babies are so much fun (though if you asked me now, I would say the last few weeks of the pregnancy are the worst!)

I was wondering when you were going to break the news to Ringo...We are SO excited for you guys!! I am a little jealous your ultrasound pictures are way better than mine! I'm guessing you already have a cooperative little girl. My favorite is the picture of the little feet!!
