Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth. I sat at a table where were rich food and wine in abundance, and obsequious attendance, but sincerity and truth were not; and I went away hungry from the inhospitable board. Henry David Thoreau (1817 - 1862)

Drumroll please...
Yes, dear reader, the results are in...The Queen has not just been putting away a few too many fudge covered, caramel infused brownies, there really is a small Royal freestyling around in there. The newest addition to the Kingdom pictured here is kicking, punching and growing well, and most importantly...completely healthy. Iris (the sono-tech was able to quickly snap this pic, before said child dove into the nether regions of Loch Amniotic (that was for you MamaLou).
Oops, that's not it...sorry...try this one...
If you're curious...which i know you are...we finally peeked. For the first time in...well...FOUR now...we had "The Mystery" unveiled...
I'm certain this won't be the only thing we do differently with this one...knowing this will be the last rodeo. See previous post...
So...i suppose you're wondering...well, you'll have to watch this, which just happens to be one of my all-time favorite songs. Don't worry...there's no indirect insinuation that you have to sift through hidden meaning...its pretty obvious...
Now...if your a regular rubbernecker and NEVER leave comments, THIS would be a VERY opportune time to do so.

Congrats...I won't say on what!! Guess they'll have to listen to the song to find out.
I listened - brought tears to me eyes, it did! Congrats! It's a good thing that the current blanket I am crocheting is green.
Wow! Got a big ole lump in my throat and had to really try hard not to tear up in front of everyone. I gather from the song, I chose wisely when I voted on the gender of this one. Awesome song! First time I heard it. Shared the song with others here in the office. Everyone thought that was a cool way of telling everyone.
Big Bro
I guessed right for once. Congratulations to your Kingdom.
Beautiful song, sounds like you get that extra vote on your side piper get ready to break out those hunting shows! or maybe just more of those sports thingy's you already do :)
Congrats... and concur with the other commenters!
To ALL the Kingdom: Our prayers (and wishes) have been answered - and for just a healthy baby as well, but we are estactic with the news for another baby bairn.
Loved the song announcement too!
Have a song for you too:
Dance tae yer daddy, (and mither)
Ma bonnie laddie,
Dance tae yer daddy,
Ma bonnie lamb!
An ye'll get a fishie,
In a little dishie,
Ye'll get a fishie,
whan the boat comes hame.
(Maybe fishie food should come a little later in the post-birth process though...!)
I am sending a little gift that I wished had been here by now, that will help to greet and name the wean in our Scottish way.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE from the Bee-dom,
Honey and Papa
great song and way to make the announcement. The best news is that the baby is HEALTHY! It is very exciting to know another one will be here before we know it. I'm thinkin......minivan to haul the Royal Court around; or is a minivan to "uncool"?
I was listening to the local Christian radio station a couple of weeks ago when they debuted a song from Steven Curtis Chapman's latet album "This Moment". The song's title...."Cinderella". Within the first few lyrical lines I knew I had to share this very special song with you. Just go to Steven's website and you can listen to it. I can honestly say that I could see you and Madison and/or Leah dancing around the house. The song rings all to clear because we've already had two nieces grow up, get married, move away and are now having their own families. I'd love to hear what your comments are once you've heard the song.
Remember....to cherish the moments - but I know you already do. brother #2
Thankyou everyone for all the kindnesses. We are very thankful for this new one, and are thankful for all of you. Stay tuned for updates.
.... congratulations to you and your Missus!....
