Today's the day my friends! I'm halfway though my pregnancy!!! 20 weeks baby! And in only 20ish more weeks I'll be able to hold my precious baby girl ;) I honestly cannot wait! ;) Andrew and I already love her so much, it's hard to imagine loving her even more but I look forward to it daily. I talk to her all the time and ask her to be nice to me and let me sleep or relax hahahaha I sing to her sometimes without even realizing it Andrew laughs and then gets al excited and sings with me ;) Our car is our soundstage hahahaha My mom asked me a few days ago if we were gonna bombard her with Sleeping Beauty or even just Princesses and I said no. I wanna wait til she's older and see if she's like me (doesn't like pink or Barbies, etc) or if she's more like her grandma then I can encourage all sorts of things ;) Now that doesn't mean that I'm not gonna dress her cute with bows and frills cuz let's face it, I totally will ;) I am however going to decorate her room in Disney pictures, and her Uncle Trevor is going to draw her a couple pictures to hang up on the walls. I'm even gonna put up my old Little Mermaid poster, passing it on to my little one. (we'll see if it makes it through her life to HER daughter hahahaha) I love knowing that she's growing strong inside me and that she's just as stubborn as her parents so far ;) I haven't felt any kicks still but I've been feeling more of her movements (at least I'm pretty sure it's her movements hahahaha) and happily, a lot of the nausea has subsided. Only thing now is that my immune system is basically shot so I catch everything from the kids at church and school it's kinda comical when I think about it but still stinks :(
This little baby girl is worth every little piece of being uncomfortable. So I am now gonna chillax here and watch Lord of the Rings along with a nice bowl of sherbet ;) (Rory loves sherbet hahahaha)

We were so excited for our appointment yesterday ;) I had an eye doctor appointment that morning and the whole office was all excited for us to find out too (it was funny) They all knew I was pregnant cuz they couldn't dialate my eyes hahaha apparently there's some chemical that would mess with me and the baby so they had to take a super cool (and slightly expensive) picture of my retina! Awesome! In the morning Andrew said "Guess what!? We get to know who our baby is today!!" He was so cute and excited! And after my eye doctor appointment, I got to order new glasses!!! New prescription = new glasses and a pair of sunglasses! I really like being able to see better! (It had been 3 years since my last exam...yeah I know, slacker!) Ok ok I'll talk about the reason you all came to this post ;) Our sweet little baby ;) We were in and out of the office within 20 mintues! It was the fastest appointment we've had so far. The nurse came in to hear the heartbeat and she found it WAY faster than last time! Granted Peanut is also a lot bigger now than the last time so we could hear easier ;) Dr Tutt came in and asked how we were doing, how baby was feeling I told him that I can't really feel the baby much, but I knew when I ate the wrong thing or if I didn't sleep enough and he was happy to hear that my appetite was coming back AND that I had only gained ONE POUND in the past 5 weeks! Thank you thank you! ;)
So he turns on the ultrasound machine and we see our baby! The baby was waving at us and all of us laughed at that, but baby didn't want to show us a face :( Dr Tutt checked all the vitals, then asked us if we wanted to know gender or not I said YES PLEASE!!! And he went down the abdomen to the legs telling us the whole time that everything looks great and healthy and that we're having A GIRL!!!! The little plus sign is in the empty space where a boy part would be if there was one, but there's not! So our little darling one is a daughter!! We are so happy! Our siblings are so excited to become uncles and aunt! Our parents are super excited to become grandparents! And my grandparents are so happy to be great-grandparents! So in June we will be welcoming Aurora Rose Mills to the world!! ;) I am so happy to be able to call my baby by name now!! ;) Thank you for the well-wishes and the love you have all showed us! |
