We had so much fun telling the girls. We wanted to make it special so we created a scavenger hunt around the house for clues that spelled out "We're getting a new baby". It was hilarious watching them sort it all out and then the moment it all clicked was so precious. They had comments like:
Ali - "You must have prayed to God for this!!!"
Brooke - "It's just so weird that you can have kids this old and then still be pregnant!"
Both of them kept repeating that they thought it was a joke and it wasn't real, but with mommy's growing belly, they are true believers now. At Ali's birthday party in June the girls got to share the big news with all our extended family via a magic trick.
We will go as a family on August 11 to find out the sex of our newest DeMoor. Can't wait! Ali wants a little sister and Brooke wants a little brother.
