We just couldn't wait!!!!

Ok folks.... so let me start at the beginning. As you all know we were not going to find out the gender of the baby. Early on we named the baby, Baby K, and were going to hold out until the end. BUT we thought we would only have to make it through 1 ultrasound at 20 weeks. WELL at the 20 week ultrasound my placenta was low and slightly covering the cervix, which meant that I had to have an additional ultrasound in 8 weeks to re-check the placenta placement. which brings you up to date! ANYWAY moving on.... one day while we were shopping Grant turned to me and said, "I can't wait." I believe my eyes bugged out about 5 inches. "WHAT" he said he couldn't wait, that we were getting this 2nd ultrasound this 2nd chance to check out our little Baby K and find out what gender they are. I looked at him and asked are you sure, and why? He said that he just couldn't wait he wanted to know and that it would be so much easier to prepare for. He asked me what I thought. I told him that if that is what he wanted then we could find out. I knew it was the right decision at that right moment, because i didn't feel any doubt or concern. I felt butterflies, my heart started to race, and for some reason i knew it was right. our first thought was to find out and just not tell anyone. keep it a secret no one even knew that we had a slight thought about finding out. and i was fine with that, our own little secret. i mean i kept my sisters secret why couldn't i keep my own! welllllll we keep talking about it all week, and by Tuesday we knew we were ready to find out the gender of our little baby.

So drum rollllllllllllll please................... Grant and I would love to introduce you to our little Baby GIRL!!!!!! that is right folks we are having a little girl. I was shocked!! Grant said the whole time that he knew it was a girl, but for some reason i was thinking boy the whole time. It is crazy that you think you know what you are having, then bam someone tells you different, and there is not a questioning moment, or a disappointing moment. I felt this wave of emotion roll over me and thinking, "Oh my gosh, that is OUR baby girl" that moment seeing her even though i had seen her before, this time was different, i looked over at grant and i held back my tears, and we both just smiled at each other. It seemed like it was one of those moments were time stood still and everything was perfect, peaceful, and right.

Well like i said the plan was to just not tell anyone, but i couldn't keep it in, my ultrasound was on tuesday, and on saturday morning i walked out and looked at grant and said " you couldn't wait to find out and i can't wait to tell!" all i wanted to do was call my mom, and tell my sister. so he said Go for it :) so my mom was called, i texted my sister (she was at a wildtree show) and when grant's mom was done with work he called her.

we don't regret our decision, i don't regret my decision. after grant made that first comment, i never thought should we? for some reason i was at peace with it, it felt right. and planning will be so much easier now, i figure we are having a baby in the winter in Wisconsin, that means a cold! and after looking through clothes that i already had at home, i just couldn't look at any more yellow. now the baby's closet has pink and purple in it already. After we found out we went to target and picked out our baby girl's first outfits.

so the pink and purple has already overloaded the closet, i mean you can't pass up 30% off coupon at kohl's when they were already having a sale now can you? so i bought a bunch of stuff and even got $10 cash back for next week :)

So anyway that is my news for the week. and now i am off to eat some breakfast, my little lady is kicking and rolling in my belly and just must be hungry.

my little girl...... i really love that sound :)
