IT'S A GIRL!

We found out at our 3D ultrasound yesterday that we are welcoming a BABY GIRL into our family! If anyone had asked me I would have sworn we were having a boy - my pregnancy was exactly the same as Levi's, the heartbeat was getting lower at each visit, etc. Not to mention we really wanted another boy. Had the name picked out and everything. So it was a complete shock and total surprise when the ultrasound tech said "It's a girl!" Levi was with us at the ultrasound and was so excited about his new sister. She kept waving on the monitor and Levi would wave back. Although we were "wanting" a boy, we are thrilled that we will be having a little girl at the end of the year. To get myself excited about a little girl I've made a list of all the things to look forward to:
  • CLOTHES! Girls have the best clothes and there are always more girl clothes to choose from then boy clothes.
  • Now my sisters have a ring bearer and a flower girl for their weddings.
  • Hair - not that I even have a clue of what to do, but now we get to play with bows and such, and my friend Lisa has her own business for stuff such as this so I'm looking forward to giving her some business.
  • I think my mom still has some of my clothes from when I was a baby and I'm looking forward to putting her into all of it.
  • I can't wait to see what she looks like. Big brown eyes with blond hair. I think she will be adorable to say the least.
  • Shoes - boys need what? 2 or 3 pairs. Girls need tons! So exciting.
  • Now I can register for all the blog giveaways that are for girly things like bows, hats, dresses, etc. *Alison - any cute hats you want to send our way we would love it*
  • A mommy's girl!!

Here's to a wonderful new adventure that we are so excited about!
