First, my hubby and I went in for our anatomy scan and quad screen on the 11th. Both were perfect and Baby F is a healthy little bug! Yay! It was so amazing to see he/she on the screen while the tech was trying to get measurements. Baby is so active, flipping and moving all over the place. At one point I'm pretty sure the tech was digging at my spine she was pushing so hard into my belly, trying to get the baby to move. I CAN'T WAIT until our next ultrasound appointment! I have a regular belly apt mid August and there is a slight chance that they will do another one then. The tech was having trouble getting all of the measurements she needed lol. If not, we are having one done in September! Second, we had our SEX PARTY (hehe) on the 14th. What an experience. We had the tech write down the sex of the baby and put it into an envelope. Then we gave the envelope to The Cupcake Brewer https://www.facebook.com/CupcakeBrewer (who makes the yummiest cake I've ever had). She was so great! She made us an adorable cake to match our lips and mustache theme. She made the inside of the cake the symbolic color of the sex of the baby. Blue for boy and pink for girl. The cake was...
PINK! Hooray! Now, hopefully she doesn't grow a penis before she is born. *crosses fingers* Keep those fingers crossed until December... November... hopefully December :)
Third, I turned 25! Woo hoo! I officially feel old-ish. I was filling something out online the other day and I am no longer in the 18-24 range. I'm in the 25-31 range (sniff). Growing up is so not as cool as I thought it would be. Ugh.Oh, back to my beautiful, smart, amazing baby girl. She has started kicking hard enough that Daddy got to feel her kick on Friday night! It was so great to be able to have him feel her for the first time. Of course, I cried. Just a little. I kept it in check. I love seeing his face light up when I tell him that she is just like him with her long legs. (I personally think she looks like him too, but it's a little early). He gets such a kick out of knowing that she is on one side of my belly or the other, that she is kicking or rolling. He was pushing on my belly (I almost typo-ed punching for pushing... that would have been interesting) yesterday and felt something like an elbow or knee! So cool.
Before I go, I have a very important announcement to make. TODAY marks the beginning of week 20! Baby girl is officially halfway cooked! I can't believe how fast it has gone and that in 20 (or less) weeks we will be meeting our new baby girl!
Now that we have reached the end of this post. I have gone back and read it again, and I feel as though I need to apologize. I was all over the place, there was lack of humor and no direction to speak of. Oh well, better luck next time!
