GIRL!!!


We are having a little GIRL!!! We're very excited!! We were able to find out last Thursday and I have been floating ever since. Tim's family was all there waiting in the front room and before I came out I changed my shirt from black to pink! I also had a blue one and was going to use that to tell them. No one got it at first and then they realized I had changed my shirt! It was a lot of fun!
I had thought the baby was a boy for some reason and there are already three girls among Tim's two sisters so I thought the odds were with a boy. But she'll have fun with her cousins! We're used to a lot of girls, my parents had three before they had any boys and the first two in Tim's family are girls. It will be fun to have a girl as the first one to help out with the others, sorry sweetie! ;)
I'm now 19 1/2 weeks along, almost half-way! And have been able to feel her kick and roll around. Its so much fun!! But it just reminds me she's in there and I want her out! I'm also starting to show a lot more but I don't think strangers really realize I'm preggers. I was talking to a nice lady at the park the other day and she was completely shocked that I was pregnant, much less 4 months along! I guess people just think I have a round belly! Tim tells people I drink too much beer. :) I don't have a very recent picture but here's one from 17 weeks.

A girl!! How fun! I had to snicker when you said your daughter will have to help with the others. The story of my life! (But I love it...sometimes) And I adore the new look of your Blogger!
