Summer Baby!

Well, it's official Jake and I are announcing the first addition to our family to arrive this August! The addition will be a baby, and we're taking bets now on whether it's a boy or girl. As we said in the family e-mail we've come up with a couple of prizes! If you guess right you get to send us a package of diapers! But if you guess wrong we'll let you send what ever you like... :) lol only teasing!!! So to help with your guessing Madison (our 9 yr old niece) says it's a boy, and she hasn't been wrong yet! However our sister in law Kaylee says it's a girl and she hasn't been wrong yet, so who will win!?!? Time will tell!
Mom Urry had the funniest reaction to the news... For Christmas we wrapped up some electrical socket protectors and wrote on the package to "start baby proofing!" She thought it was a joke and wouldn't believe us! We had to show her three of the four positive pregnancy tests before she finally believed us! :) It was pretty funny...
Mom Webster caught on a little slower than we thought she would... We got her a little silver necklace with a little "Grandma" charm on it. When she opened it she said something to the effect that "oh, it's a grandma necklace, how lovely"... and that was it. It took Dad Webster saying, "are you trying to tell us something?" before she realized the significance of the Grandma charm! :) It was pretty hilarious!
Although this little baby has come as quite an early surprise we are just so excited and feel just so so blessed!

Happy Valentines Day!

  5. I am excited that you are telling everyone now!!! I am so excited for this baby. I will love it no matter what it is but I would love a girl so Sammie could have a playmate (of course if it's a boy she would still play with him!!!) Congrats!!! Are you feeling any better??

  10. I am totally betting on it being a girl, so then our kids can be lovers. Haha, just kidding. I'm sure Jake would love a boy to teach sports, and you would be so cute with a girl, I just don't know. Congrats, you two! There's nothing better in the world!

  11. Congratulations! We're so excited for the two of you. I'm betting a girl, b/c Jake I'm sure really wants a boy to turn into a Bears fan. But keep reminding him if it is a girl we like football too, we just can't safely play it!
