Happy Easter!

This Easter we are thrilled to introduce our second little GIRL!!! Dylan Stevelt-Mitchell!
Look how long her legs are! The technician claims they will get nice and chubby and then they won't appear so long, but still - they go clear up to her butt!
We got to peek in on our sweet Baby-Roo again this Friday, and while she didn't want to look at the ultrasonographer and kept hiding her face in my back, she did pose for lots of nice butt shots to tell us that she is indeed a little girl! Grandma McMillan (Mimi) and my Mom (Grandma) went to this ultrasound with me, and it was lots of fun to have them along, especially since Mimi had never seen an ultrasound before. Our tech, Gwenna, was extra nice and spent lots of time pointing out cute little feet, cute little arms which she had curled up by her head, all FOUR chambers of her heart, and watching her roll & move. Her heart rate was 146 bpm this time, and she is still measuring big (which is quite different from her big sister who was always a little peanut.) We have decided to name her Dylan, though I imagine she will mostly be called Dyl-pickle or Pickle, as Daddy has already dubbed her. :) I've now felt her kick 4 times, each time getting closer and closer together, so I'm hoping that soon it will be a daily and then many-times-daily event!

We are hosting Easter dinner at our house tomorrow for my family, it will be our first big Holiday dinner we've done, so wish us luck! I've never made a ham before, so though it's going against my rule of 'never make something you haven't made before for company', I'm hoping for the best!

Happy Easter to all of you, from all of us! ~Kristy, Chadmo, Haley-Bug, Dylan, Ruby, Bianca, Tucker-momo, Farrah, & Forrest <3
