On Monday we had my 20 week ultrasound. Justin and I were both so excited that we couldn't sleep the night before. The first thing Justin said to me when he woke up was, "All I keep thinking is, do I need to start saving for a wedding?" :) The appointment went great, the baby is healthy and everything looks normal. She had her mouth open the whole time and the tech said, "Looks like a communicator already." We had the doctor write down the sex and put it in an envelope (just like with B). We considered waiting and opening it together on Xmas morning, but like Justin told the doctor, "We are 2 Leo's - we can't wait and need to start planning!" After our appointment when we were alone together in the car, I opened the envelope to find a BLUE piece of paper folded up. I looked at J and said, "It's a boy." He said, "Well open the paper!" I could NOT believe my eyes. It said 'Congratulations you're having a baby GIRL.' I screamed and burst into tears. I have never been so excited in my life. We both wanted a girl so bad, but didn't get our hopes up since they told us at my 13 week ultrasound that the baby was probably a boy. I started getting used to the idea that I would be a mom with 2 boys and would soon convince J to adopt a baby girl from Asia. HA When we picked B up from the sitter and told him he was going to have a baby sister he replied, "No mommy, a boy." :) I've already bought a few pink outfits, a pink blanket, selected her bedding and picked up some wallpaper samples. I should be concentrating on decorating B's new room, but I can't help it. Girl stuff is so much more fun! Poor Justin has no idea how expensive our life is about to become!
