Introductions

Welcome baby Rampton #2!!!!!!!!!

We are so excited you've decided to join our family! Although so close to age to Troy, we have been wanting, praying and fasting for you to come. 

Here were your first introductions:

1. Mom: I decided I would wait until Wednesday, December 3 to take a pregnancy test. It was the first thing I thought about when I woke up, and as soon as dad left, I took the test. POSITIVE!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!

2. Troy: Whispered to Troy "You're going to be a big brother!!!!!!" (Also, side note, about 2 days earlier I was feeding Troy in his room, and he was totally fixed on something where nothing appeared to be. He would mostly stare at the one place, but sometimes 'it' would move. I wondered if he was watching a spirit. Perhaps it was you! And Troy got to meet you first.)

3. Dad: Troy and I drove to the Air Force Academy Medical Clinic where dad was working and we left him a note from the stork saying "Congratulations! You're a daddy to two! We're a family of four!" And left it at his door. We later met for lunch :)

4. Aunt Sissy: Called Chelsea to let her know. I want her to tell me when she's pregnant first thing, so had to tell her first.

This shirt -

- was used to tell everyone else.

5. Grandma: We first tricked grandma to going to get Troy from his nap while he was wearing the shirt. It took her about 10 minutes until she realized! She is so excited for me!

6. GP: Then GP came downstairs. It also took him 10 minutes to realize. When he did he said, "Big Bro?! You're not a big bro, unless you're a big bro." (While holding up the hang loose sign). Lol

7. Aunt Kylee: Little Kylee saw and read the shirt right away, it took grandma asking some questions for her to register. She later told me she thought I had just bought the shirt because it was on sale. Kylee started crying, she is so happy!

8. Auntie Ashley: We went upstairs to Ashley's room while she was sleeping. She was (naked) and confused why we were in her room. Right away she said sarcastically, "Is this an announcement." In which I responded in the affirmative and got another sarcastic response "Congratulations." I just kept being honest until she realized it was not a joke,

9. Michael: Last we told Michael (well techincally his gf Prestley first). We were playing charades and after the three blind mice trick with Prestley I acted out being a mom of two babies. He guessed and was excited!!

10. The Rampton side: Bobby sent an email to his family with some "updated pictures of Troy," the last of which was the picture above. No one actually got that we were making an announcement but we eventually told them. 

We love you already, little size-of-a-blueberry baby. I (luckily!) already got an ultrasound due to my heart condition and we think you're the most beautiful little dot!

Due Aug 8, 2015.

I am a little worried that something might be wrong because I haven't gotten any morning sickness, and hardly have any symptoms of pregnancy. But I think I'm worried because it's too good to be true! We are so blessed.

We'll love you forever,

we'll like you for always,

as long as we're living 

our baby you'll be.
