Time for a profile update... I changed the color of the blog to make it official... that's right it's a girl!!!!!! So everyone called it... if I was keeping track of the votes it was like a million to one and I was the one who thought I was getting the boy. So there she is.. if you look close you can see her beautiful side profile and below you can see her foot getting in the picture. They must have given us 30 pictures of her but this was the best one of the bunch.. she was very wiggly and she kept moving around so none of the other pictures turned out as great. We have a few pictures of her covering her face with her arms... and another one of her just kicking her foot (practicing soccer kicks).
The night before I found out I had a dream that it was a girl.. since I had 2 previous dreams that it was boy.... I had a feeling that it was going to be a girl.. but of course I was in denial. As previously mentioned before my baby girl was a little camera shy when it came to her face covering it with her arms... but when It came to the goods she was not shy at all. The ultrasound tech guy was able to tell us right away that it was a girl... of course I was a little sad since I wanted a boy... I had asked the tech guy how sure he was... he told me "I am 100% positive that your having a girl." So that took care of that. Out with the dream of a baby boy and in with the reality of a baby girl. After the first day of shock I have come around and accepted the fact that we are having a girl... and now I am getting excited.. I mean I am not your "girly girl" but I do enjoy the color Pink and enjoy shopping for cute clothes:)
Of course there are things that stress me out thinking about having a girl. For example: her hair??? I can't even do my own hair how am I suppose to do my daughter's hair? Then of course the SEX talk.. I know that will be years before that happens but still I have to talk about Sex, periods and boys... or what about the troubling teen years, then of course the dreaded years of when the daughter hates her mother because of her daughter/mother issues... I heard the baby girl years are easier than the baby boy years so at least I have that going for me:)
Regardless of all the trouble years a head of me.. right now I am enjoying the fact that I am already in love with my baby girl.
Vally!!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know you were hoping for boy...a girl suits you guys so well. I can't wait to meet her. Have you started looking for names? I'm sure you have! And the hair thing, have her keep it short like mommy. She'd look adorable. Either that or Erik can do it :)
I love you! So excited to meet my niece.
