Once again they were out of the country for a business meeting. It didn’t come as a surprise to me

more than in enough and a lot to choose from” I laugh.

The baby’s room was full of stuff. I thought that mom, dad, Letty and Corrine were bad. That was

pink. Just like with Noah and Ethan, he also believes that it will be a baby girl.
