Tickle Me Pink!




We went back to the doctor today and it's 99.9 % official that we are expecting a girl! What a huge relief to finally know and be able to start decorating the nursery! I couldn't see the sonogram screen for the first part of the sonogram because the doctor was performing all the measurements to ensure that the baby was growing normally, but I had the opportunity to watch Robbie's face as he watched the screen. It was so wonderful to see the glow on his face as he watched our little girl (can't believe I can finally use a pronoun for the baby) move all around. The doctor then turned the screen so I could see and I guess my early nutritional breakfast, cinnamon rolls, helped wake her up! She was a lively little girl (I guess she takes after her father since my favorite hobby is napping). We got to see her hiccups and her stretch her little legs all the way out. Take advantage of that leg room little one because it won't be like that for too much longer! I think we even saw her yawn (see the picture with her mouth open). At one point she had her little left arm behind her head and I found that hilarious because I woke up this morning in the same position. Robbie is a little worried that she is already turning out to be like her mom in her sleep mannerisms. He's hoping she won't snore too! Next step for us: picking out her name! Hopefully we can agree on one! As for the appointment, everything checked out great! God has blessed us and we can't wait until her arrival in July!
