Christina went to the doctor yesterday and we were given the day Baby Girl Nixon will be born. February 9th. This means all three of the kids will have been born on 9th day of the month. Also, we will be celebrating birthdays every fourth month, nicely spread out.

Misunderstanding
Every Thursday Christina and I go to our small group Bible study which starts at 6 pm. Tonight the ending of the Dodger game was around 6 pm. I spent as much time as I could watching the game at home (through the top of the 9th) and listened to the bottom of the 9th on our drive. When we arrived at our destination the Dodgers were down to their last out.
Christina had no interest in sitting in the car with me to listen to the end of the game, so she went inside to talk to all the women about babies and our new announcement. Around the same time, a fellow Dodger fan pulled up so we listened together as the Dodgers started an unbelievable two out rally. After Loretta had the game winning hit we went inside joining the talk about our soon to be little girl, where the following exchange happened with a lady in our small group:
Sharece - (patting me on the back) "Congratulations, Jimmie."
Me - "Thanks, I can't believe the Dodgers pulled out that win."
Sharece - (silent, with a stunned look on her face)
Of course I am writing this as I watch the bottom of the 9th on the DVR.

Gender Check
Christina was able to schedule another sonogram today for a gender check. (If you remember the baby was not cooperating last time.) We are pleased to announce Dillon and Connor will be getting a little sister.
All along Dillon has said, "I already have a brother, I want a little sister." Christina was nervous that she would be stuck with a house full of boys, so relief came over her today. I was content with either a boy or girl, but after a day of reflection, I am now the nervous one as a I fear being wrapped around her little finger. Connor has stayed silent on the subject.
Grandparents, aunts, and uncles have already expressed a desire to be buying pink dresses, dolls, and hair clips. Does anyone else think this little girl will be spoiled?

Oh Boy!
Christina had a sonogram today. And the sex of the new baby will be ....... determined next month. The little stinker was not quite ready to expose itself to us. It wouldn't get in the right position for the nurse to give us a definite answer. We found out that Dillon and Connor were going to be boys around this same time in the pregnancy as Christina is now, 19 weeks. This time we have to wait four more weeks.

Connor in the Middle
If you are wondering why the blogging has been so light over the past two months, it's because Christina has been sick. The extended sickness is due from one thing...pregnancy. Just like with Connor, Christina has had to have a take home IV over the past eight weeks. And just like before, our family has been wonderful helping with the boys and Christina while I am at work.
Christina is 13 weeks along now, which puts the due date on February 14th. Dillon will be four months shy of four years old and Connor will be 16 months old. It also means it will be the sixth (calendar) year in a row for my parents to get a grandchild, a streak I can guarantee we will not continue in 2011.
This pregnancy was a complete surprise to us but we look forward to the little bundle of joy. We knew we wanted a third child but was hoping to wait a couple of years. Now we will have two in diapers for a while.
We would love for you to keep the baby, Christina, and us boys in your prayers for the next six months. Christina should be turning the corner on her extreme morning sickness within a week or two.
I have posted two new pictures below to make up for my lack of blogging below. Plus their shirts are very fitting for the subject matter, even though Connor's shirt will be "out of style" in six months.

10/9/08
That is the Thursday Baby Nixon is scheduled to arrive. It is also the Thursday Christina and I, OK probably just her, will begin to get less sleep. It's the Thursday I appreciate my mother for her help while Christina is recovering from major surgery. It's the Thursday we find out if Dillon will be jealous of his little brother. And finally, it's the Thursday you all will find out Baby Nixon's real name (and not a day sooner!)
