it's a GIRL !!!

The boys missed a birthday party today so they could be at the ultrasound. Aaron was able to sneak away from work and it was a perfect family outing! I was a bit frustrated during the appointment because everything seemed pretty blurry. With my boys, we could see parts-- and clearly. The tech didn't say anything until the very end because she was waiting to get a good shot. But the baby had her legs crossed most of the time (such a lady) and didn't want to show us anything. Finally at the end, she gave us the "100%- It's A GIRL, go-out-and-buy-pink" announcement. The tech said she knew right away, but with four boys in the room, she wanted to give us proof. I still don't think you can see much, but if three lines means it's not a boy, then I am willing to sign on the dotted line.

Aaron was beaming from ear to ear and made sure to tell me that he's always given me everything I've ever wanted. I am so thrilled and the boys are all pretty excited too. On the way home they could not stop listing girl names. Zack says he really wants Sally. But then suggested a few more: Stinker, Dum-dum, Grandma, Godzilla, Brother... we were all laughing. He also said, "It would be awesome to name her GO AWAY! Then I can say, 'Come here, Go Away' & 'Go Away, come here!'" After ten years and four boys, I can promise you, we have a long list of girl names and don't need any of his suggestions.

I am excited to buy dresses and hair bows... yay for girls & happy mother's day to me!
