Umm... It's a GIRL!!

It’s a GIRL!

Boy was today a whirlwind of emotions! No pun intended. We had gone in today for our complete anatomy ultrasound only to find out our little BOY had turned into a GIRL! The tech asked us if we wanted to know the gender once she got to that part and we had told her we already knew it was a boy. So she’s going over everything and gets the money shot and corrects us saying it’s a GIRL. We were like… are you SURE?!!!! She said I’ve been doing this for 15 years and laughed! It was as clear as can be, this girl had no problems showing us the goods in there! LOL

Nevertheless we are excited and very happy to have her be a part of our lives. It’s going to take some time to get used to the shock of having a girl now, but I am happy regardless, as long as this baby is healthy!

It's a BOY!

It’s a BOY!

We just got home from our elective ultrasound and are so happy to finally know the gender! I drank lots of orange juice to get baby moving during the ultrasound. Unfortunately I think that may have worked TOO well! He wouldn’t stay still! The tech had a hard time getting the butt shot and they finally got it after a few tries, but we saw it and it’s definitely a BOY!

You’re my beautiful little BOY!
We’re so happy to welcome this baby BOY into our lives.

Dear Baby...

Dear Baby,
How lucky am I to have you? I’ve been blessed and am so lucky in love. Ever since I found out about you on the day of … my life has changed so much. I’ve been inspired to be a much better person and all things that I do, for me, you, and our family. When I first heard your little heartbeat, my own fluttered with joy. After seeing you for the first time on the ultrasound I grew more and more in love and grew the urge to do the best for you. Everything suddenly became so real. Apparently 5 pregnancy test wasn’t real enough! It is now 3 weeks later and in a few hours I will know if you are a boy or a girl! Although both mommy and daddy think you’re a boy, we’ll see! We’re so excited to finally be able to put a name to Baby E in my tummy! All of our daydreaming will be no more and we can continue to call you by your name.

That is of course, if you do cooperate! On the last ultrasound all you wanted to do was sleep with your hands up by your face and have your legs closed! : ) We can’t wait to see you today. You’re our little blessing from god, our reason to live. This is just one of the first milestones of many to come for our family. We have yet to feel you really move in there and there is so much more to learn about you. Thank you for being such a nice baby to mommy. You’ve made this such an easy pregnancy for me to endure. I’m looking forward to watching you grow and move ferociously! Every little thing makes my day worthwhile. Everything that brings me to that wonderful day in November that you will be in my arms and our life will continue together. I can’t wait to look into your eyes and tell you how much I love you.

Today is such an exciting day for us and I can no longer contain my feelings. I am ecstatic to see you in a few hours and put a name to my little one.

I love you so much and can’t wait to meet you out here in the real world!
Love Mommy!
