It's a girl!!!

I'm so excited to announce that Yoni will be a big brother to two little sisters and that Sylvie is going to have a sister with whom to share all of life's dramas! Yesterday's ultrasound was really long and detailed (I don't remember it being so with the other two) and fabulous...everything looked great. Mike and I started feeling her move around last week and she's pretty active.
Here are some of the more memorable pics from yesterday's visit.

When I told Yoni that he's going to have another little sister, his reply was something like "Oh good, another sister to play in the bounce house with me!" It was sweet.

In other news...fall is on the way. I would normally be excited - if I wasn't still traumatized by last winter. The trees are already starting to turn and it's getting chilly outside. We turned the heat on this week at night, much to Yoni's dismay. It makes a clicking sound as it enters the baseboards which has been waking him up at night and scaring him "I don't want the heat! The heat is on! Move my bed!" Lots of drama throughout the night. Hopefully, we'll sleep through this night. The good news about the change in the seasons is that it's our last winter up here in the arctic tundra, so we'll try to savor it. Hopefully it won't snow as much. Our OB recommended stashing away towels and a shoelace in the car just in case, as she's due in Feb and we barely made it on time with Sylvie...I hope it won't be necessary!

We've also signed Yoni up for swim class in preparation for the move down south. He'll be taking a class on Saturdays with daddy to give them some alone time, which will be nice for them both.

We had a fun day today...in the morning, we played with play-doh - Yoni made a pizza:

and in the afternoon, we went to the playground and the Farmer's Market in Lebanon -

Yoni's become quite a good climber as of late and this video shows him climbing at the playground today and Sylvie's quite good at saying "Up, Up!".
