So Erin is going to be so upset that I got to this before her, but because she says that I do not blog enough I wanted to be the first to blog on the most exciting news that we have received yet! The Cockeye is perfectly healthy and growing and developing at the average pace. And we now know that we will be having a daughter....Delainey Grace Killion...wanted to get it out there so that noone that we knew would happen to steal the name.....I am not sure that I have been more excited for anything in my life....I have always said that I wanted a boy because I wanted to have the Killion name continue...but now that I think about it if we would have had a boy first we probably would not have had a second child because we would have both driven Erin crazy! Also, after thinking about this for a while, I came to the conclusion about a month ago that it is not about what I want, or what Erin wants it is about what God wants us to have in our life. And we know now what God wanted. We are going to have a beautiful baby girl that will take my heart and have me wrapped around her little finger as soon as she enters this world. Don't get it twisted though Delainey will love watching our Gamecocks on Saturday and Thursday nights (whenever they are scheduled to play) and her favorite channel on Sunday mornings and afternoons will be NFL RedZone because she will be rooting for Daddy's Fantasy Football team (which now has to undergo a name change because it is not daughter appropriate)...which by the way won a championship this year!
All in all you can all see that I am very excited about this and I can't wait for her to get here so that I can show her right away everything to stay away from....boys, drugs, boys, motorcycles, boys, short skirts, boys, tight clothing, boys, bikinis, boys, and I think that about covers it I am sure there is more...oh yeh boys I forgot that one!
Michael, I am so excited for you! You have always had a special relationship with babies and children of all ages, and now to think you'll be receiving one of your very own in a few short months is awesome! You will soon realize the unsurpassed feeling of love that I have for you and Jessie, and no matter that you are both 'grown-ups' and married, I will still catch a glimmer of that little boy who loved singing Old MacDonald had a Farm and thinking up all kind of animals to go with it and having fits of giggles when we tried to 'make' their sounds, or that little curly-haired girl with the 'waterspout' on top of her head visiting Project and Sandy Kicketty in our linen closet until they moved away to Florida, never to be heard of again. God 'loans' us his children and it's an awesome responsibility, but I know that you and Erin will take the assignment with great loving care, I already see it in you and she's not even here yet! I love you, Mom ~~ you could post this if you wnat, I don't know how(of course)
