We had a big week! You didn't make it easy for the sonographer, you were pretty much doing gymnastics while she was looking at you, but she was able to see that you are a girl and you weigh 7 oz! Your Auntie Kim asked if Mommy had orange juice that morning and sure enough, she had. So we guess your acrobatics were not all your fault, I loaded you up with sugar! Your Daddy and I thought you were a girl since the very beginning but two of your grandmas, we won't name names, were sure you were a boy! Let me assure you that they are thrilled that you are a girl so don't worry about that! Mommy cried when we found out and Daddy said he had a little tear, but Mommy couldn't see so she is sure it was more than that--you know Daddy tries to be pretty tough-ha!
After we found out we went to your Grammies' house and all three Grandmas were there as well as your Auntie Megan and new cousin Ellie (you're going to love her-she's about six months older than you) and pulled out a little girl outfit to tell them that you're a girl. There were plenty of screams and hugs going around and some chaotic phone calling to your Auntie Kim, Karlie, and Uncle Mark. Then your great grandparents came over and got to find out too. Everyone is so excited to meet you.
Mommy's got more to tell you. It's really been a busy week. Daddy has been building your crib and toy chest and is done with everything except painting. It looks wonderful and we already had your sister Sami test fit the crib so we know you'll fit perfectly. We bought you bedding for your crib last night that is the exact same as your cousin Ellie's so now we need to go buy paint for the stripes on the side of the crib and toy chest.
This is the side of your crib and Daddy has to do the same work for this as on the toy chest. But all the building is complete. He's been working very hard and you will have the best crib!
This is the front of your toy chest. Daddy has to paint the entire toy chest white and the stripes different colors to coordinate with your bedding.
Yay!!! So excited for you and Greg!!! Plus, can't wait to go look through all the cute baby girl clothes : ) ! Congrats on the great news!!
