What IS it?

We gave the girls a present today.  They knew we had found out what the baby (most likely) was on Monday, and they've been begging several times a day since to know what it is.  Here is the rundown of the guesses/hopes:

Kimberlee: wants a boy but thinks it's a girl
Keira: wants a girl but "knows" it's a boy
Krista: boy, boy, boy, boy, boy (a couple weeks ago brothers were gross and it was all girl for her)
Kassie: has no clue that in a couple months her world is going to come crashing down

Ed & MaryAnn: had no premonitions or feelings one way or the other - I can honestly say we were just hoping for a healthy baby.  When you've had an ultrasound go wrong, or had friends/family who have had an ultrasound go wrong, any "routine" ultrasound is a small miracle.
Kimberlee knows what it is...
I know you can't tell from these pictures what color the outfit is, so I'll just tell you...

We are (most likely) having GIRL #5!  I say most likely because the ultrasound was quick and the baby was not very cooperative...but it looked familiar to what we've seen before, so until I have proof otherwise, we're planning for a girl.  Yay!  I find it a little funny since the trend in our current ward is to come with all of one sex, move into the ward, and then have a baby of the opposite sex.  Everyone was completely convinced we were having a boy.  Not us...we broke the Cabot Ward Karma.

And now, since I have your attention, enjoy the pictures of our latest Christmas fun.
