Today my baby girl, Carlie Jean turns 3 years old!!! It is so hard for me to believe it!!
I remember when I was pregnant I was bound and determined I was having a boy… I just knew it! I was for sure in the matter!![](http://homesteadblogger.com/include/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/wink_smile.gif)

But when the US tech said… “Well, it looks like a girl!” I was STUNNED!!!!! I almost couldn’t believe it!
After the initial shock wore off, I was so excited to have another little girl in my home, I loved buying little pink things and sweet things with lace!![](http://homesteadblogger.com/include/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/heart.gif)

So I went in at 5:30 am July 6, 2004 and at 8:18 am that morning our precious little girl was born weighing 8 lbs and 6 oz and had wild jet black hair and a chubby little body and hence forth she became our little Dumplin! ![](http://homesteadblogger.com/include/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/teeth_smile.gif)
