Congratulations! I'm guessing a girl, March 2.

Oh Raechel! I knew it as soon as you twittered, but that hasn't stopped the flow of tears as I sit here staring in thankfulness at that beautiful picture. I'm so excited for you and Ryan {Oliver too!}. Praying for you guys on this journey and looking forward to hearing all about it! :)

Congrats! So excited for your family! :)

I've never commented before, but LOVE your blog. It's wonderful, uplifting and reminds me often to be a better steward of so many gifts we are blessed with.

I'm so happy for your family. What a wonderful blessing!

Well, I guess that answered my question then, huh!? lol. I'm sooo stinking excited for you! God is so good. I'm guessing boy (just b/c that's what I'm having!)... and due 3-1-10... just b/c that's when I'm due and that'd be cool. lol.

I'll for sure have this baby by week 38 though due to the previous complications (hellp and pre-eclampsia)... hopefully I can stay healthy til then. it's so scary for me, being pregnant again. I'm very grateful though.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

FYI- I made a prediction for a coworker and was off by only 3 minutes. Block off the 12th on your calendar.

Best wishes!

Oops, sorry, March 12th...and a girl.

Oh girl, I am just beyond thrilled for you. I saw Kelly Stamps tweet about the same time as yours yesterday. I automatically thought your tweet was about Angie as well. I am so excited that I was very wrong. Wow, you are really good at keeping secrets!!! Congratulations to you and your men and God bless you more and more every day.

Mel

OK...I'm guessing yet again. I still say girl with a due date of Feb 1st.

Oh my goodness! :)

Praise God! I really could not be happier for you and your sweet family. I am astounded that you were able to keep your secret for so long. I guess I was a little suspicious when we talked one day at bible study and you guys said you were interviewing midwives. I just couldn't bear to ask and hear you say you were being really prepared, or something. How silly of me! I'm not even going to use my EDD calculating skills, I'm just going to guess and say your EDD is 02/28/10 and that you are having a girl. CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Congratulations! I am so so so happy for you. I don't "know" you but I feel like I do and from what I know you are a fabulous mom and so deserving of this. My guesses are boy and Feb 28th, 2010. I can't wait to find our for sure!!

So happy for you and your family. My guess is a boy and due on March 7th.

I'm guessing a boy on Feb 26th. Many, many congratulations!

Congratulations. Enjoy visiting your blog. Thrilled to hear that you are expecting. . . a baby boy??? Feb 27th???

Congrats! What a blessing!!! I am going to guess that you are having a sweet baby girl and that she's due to arrive March 6th

How exciting for you! My guess is another boy on Feb. 20th.

Congratulations! I don't know why but I thought of you earlier today and wondered. Just one of those weird things I suppose! Congrats again!
I'll guess March 10, boy.

My guess is

BOY

Congrats! what a cute belly!!! God Bless!

Congratulations! So so happy for all 3 of you!

My guess is you are having a baby boy and his due date is March 3, 2010!

Prayers for a continued healthy, uneventful pregnancy.

Karin
