Baby Galore

On February 8 we found out we are having a baby girl. It was more like a confirmation. I have always felt our first baby would be a girl so that tops anybody's guess. ;) It's just something I knew deep inside and it has never escaped my mind.

We did as we said, we called people and then we went to the mall to look for baby clothes. David picked the purple outfit and I picked out the red one. Now I'm going baby clothes crazy. I want to buy everything I see just because its so cute! We are obsessed with the color purple, well, actually I'm the one who is obsessed with it. Recently I found a lavender bedding set for a crib so I'm really excited to purchase it. I will post a picture of it later on. It's very cute!!!The ultrasound went well. The last hour leading up to it made me feel very anxious mostly because I wanted to make sure the baby was healthy. It turns out she is, which was the most important thing to us. I'm just barely voicing this but the few weeks leading up to the ultrasound I couldn't help to think of all the things that could be wrong with my baby.

Now that I feel her move mostly everyday I feel more secure, so I delight in the moments I feel her movements. I could go on about how wonderful it feels but I know some people out there would just find it cheesy. Just remember that if you have kids, you were probably like me with your first child, and if you don't, then you might be cheasier than me when its your turn. We're both really excited and we can't wait to meet our baby!

To close, I'd like to leave you with a belly pic at 20 weeks.

You are teeny! And cute!
I am so happy for you guys. Your excitement reminds me so much of mine when I was pregnant with Zara. So thrilling. Her bday is July 6 so maybe you can have your baby on her bday! Haha.
I also worried through both of my pregnancies about all the possible things that could be wrong with the baby. Then I had the babies and I still worried about what could be wrong that I didn't know about. That never ends.
If you read my blogs from when I was pregnant with Z, I was much cheesier than you! Haha! I also just wrote a cheesy mom blog and I'm not even pregnant. :D
