After 3 little boys in a row, we found out Tuesday that we are finally having a little GIRL!!!! We are soo excited! It still doesn't totally feel real, I guess just because all I know is boys?! But we are all soo thrilled! (especially Austen!) I think he wanted a girl more than I did! I finally get to experience the whole "pink" thing! I have always LOVED shopping for any baby girl, (esp my darling little niece Ella) and now I actually get to do it for my own! We are very thankful for a perfectly healthy little girl who is on her way to our family! The ultrasound was very interesting! It was my 20 week US so they did all the usual scans & measurements etc, but even when the technichian was trying to get her heart & lip, she was SO stubborn! She was curled up in a tiny ball, both legs crossed, arm covering her face & her back to us! The entire ultrasound took about 40 min becuase we couldn't get her to cooperate! We almost had to go home not knowing the gender for sure becuase she would NOT uncross her legs! lol! (she was just being modest, that's a good little girl! ;))
I started to gently push on my sides, and FINALLY she gave us a good shot, & he said, "nope, there's no way that's a boy, 100% girl"! At first I didn't really believe it, even though I was looking right at the little "girl part" myself! I looked over at Austen as he was trying not to get emotional, and he was just beaming! He reached over & grabbed my hand & gave it a tight squeeze. What a day to celebrate! As we walked out I immediately called my mom & she yelled 2 times in my ear on the phone! (she was watching the little boys for us) she then gathered all 3 boys around the phone & put me on speaker so they could hear me tell them! It was so cute! Brendan yelled yeah! And she said the other bys INCLUDING little Eli just grinned from ear to ear! What a day to celebrate! After we picked up the boys, we went to Kohls & used some coupons, & we bought our first little carters one piece for her that says "Little Sister". We cannot wait to welcome her in April! :)
