By the Way...

I have some other posts on the way, but in the meantime I have to interrupt regular programming to make an announcement.  Today was a big day. A  day to wake up early, drink a lot of water, and try really, really hard not to pee for the next 3 hours. 
Ultrasound day! 
We found out some good things.  Like, there really is a baby in there!  And.  It has fingers and toes! It has kidneys and bones!  It likes to rest with its hand on its cheek, like a swooning southerner.  It wiggles and kicks and does A LOT of flipping upside-down and then downside-up.  It smiles! And!
It... is a girl. 
Sisters!  I am super excited because:
1) Girl! I love girl! Tea parties and dresses and trucks! (girls like trucks too) We have had the best time with girl!
2) I feel like J and I have just given Little One, and the new gal too, the best most amazing gift.  As a girl who has sisters, I know how precious it is that these two will have each other.  There is nothing like sisters.
3) I have practically NO shopping to do.  We are ready for this Sister like, now. 
4) To be honest, I was a teensy bit intimidated by the boy thing.  I'm sure I would have (had to) get over it. But now I don't have to!

Yay!   
I'm off to celebrate by making pink cupcakes and bringing them to J at work.  :)

  2. Congratulations!! I am the same way about a boy! I would welcome it but it seems SO much different and I am good at girls so far! LOL. (Also, that circumscision issue is one I would rather not tackle right now with my husband's family to be honest! haha (I am exactly pro...if you know what I mean...) Anyways, so excited about it! I love a new blog to read! I suck at mine.

  3. Hooray! I know you would've been happy with either sex, but sometimes it's nice to stay within your comfort zone. And here's to saving money on clothes and toys!
