We're having a GIRL!
It was the most amazing moment...not when the lady read the sonogram, but when I looked at Mike's face after hearing those words and saw nothing but a brilliant display of excitement.
That guy...is gonna be a good daddy to this little girl.
He talks to her. Asks how she is doing. Comes running at the first hint that he might could feel her kick. He's getting advice from Dads he admires on discipline. Every single day I get a glimpse of the Dad he's becoming...& it's pretty incredible.
He has also talked with his buddies about getting a shotgun for the first time she brings a boy home as well as discussed what type of pink dirt bike she'll have.
Oh...she's already loved. Let me tell you.
Thanks to a few key people & the loss of a very dear friend, I foresee some changes happening in our world as we prepare to be the kind of parents who raise a kid we can be proud of. We wouldn't mind if she was a little proud of us in return. :-)
In the meantime...we're just admiring the new photos of her face on our fridge, decoupaging & painting everything in sight, eating lots of ice cream & buying her everything ruffled or "cool" we can get our hands on.
