Happy Face Explosion

at 07/29/11 5:50PM
Today is a very happy day, indeed. So many nice things going on. I am afraid to smile too much for fear that I will freak people out. :D It's a good feeling.

We had an ultrasound today, and we are expecting a healthy baby GIRL!

I also found out today that the e-mail I received earlier in the week is not a scam, and that I have indeed won an iPad from Coldstone Creamery. I thought it would be really cool to win the 2nd or 3rd prizes of ice cream, but I'm super excited that I won the grand prize.

Aaron's brother, Nathan has been visiting for a conference, so we have gotten to hang out with him off and on for a little over a week. Fun times.

I hope you all have a very happy today!!

    Hilary! This is the most fun post ever!! I didn't enter that contest because I didn't think that anyone I ever knew ever won any of these things. Congrats on baby girl! Million dollar family!

    Hilary, I smiled so big when I opened my junk mail folder today, because ColdStone Creamery sent out an email announcing its winners, and I opened it and knew who Hilary C was! Hehehehe!

    COOL (about the iPad)!! Our radio station is giving away a bunch in August. Brent has a knack for winning things on the radio, so cross your fingers for us. How are you doing these days with the pregnancy? We need a picture. ; ) And some of Amos too. Having a girl is so cool! I'm excited for you guys.
