IT'S A GIRL!!!

This morning James and I went to get an ultrasound and confirm that the early ultrasound's 'guess' was correct, and that we are having a little boy.

We were shocked to discover that growing inside of me is a perfect little baby GIRL!! :)

The ultrasound lady was 95% sure that she's right, and we're stoked!!! I couldn't stop smiling and laughing all day, and we got ultrasound pictures too, which I'll put up as soon as I get a little scan of them at mum's house. James thinks she has my nose :) lol

I am sooooo excited!!!! I hope we have a boy next, but am so excited to be having a little girl!!! There is a 99% chance that we will be calling her Maggie :) She is going to have the cutest wardrobe!! :)

Can't believe I am 21 and a half weeks! We will get to meet her in just 4 months!!! Am over the moon! These school holidays I am going to spring clean our house and make room for her things, then plan for her things! I have been concentrating on school during school but the holidays are for baby planning and preparations :) I can't believe it's a girl!!! :) xo

PS: She is kicking like crazy right now! Maybe she's saying 'hi'?! :) xo

SOOOOO EXCITING!

Does it finally feel real now?! Will you start referring her as 'her' now instead of 'this thing that's sucking the life out of me'?

:) Can't wait to meet her too :)

Kaili Ittensohn said...: Thats so exciting Abby, I am so happy for you both. Girls are so beautiful and sweet and loving and cuddly :)

When you start preparing the nursery, and if you feel like the walls need some artwork, let me know! (of course you are a talented artist yourself, so you might do this yourself) Otherwise, wouldnt that be a cute baby gift from me to you? I hope youre having a baby shower!

Congrats again!

Quoted...

“Those who bring sunshine to the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves." - James Barrie (author of Peter Pan)

"In the end, the number of prayers we say may contribute to our happiness, but the number of prayers we answer may be of even greater importance. Let us open our eyes and see the heavy hearts, notice the loneliness and despair; let us feel the silent prayers of others around us, and let us be an instrument in the hands of the Lord to answer those prayers." - President Dieter F. Uchtdorf (Second Counselor in the First Presidency).

A bit about me...

My name is Abby, and I'm married for eternity to the fabulous James. We are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and we live in QLD, Australia. I was a primary school teacher which I loved, but now have been blessed to become a mother!! I have 2 little girls and a boy due early next year. More than anything I love being at home doing wife/mum things :) I play the viola, I love music and sports and food and spending time with our friends, and most of all, my family. I am a sister 9 times, an auntie 4 and a half times, and a countless cousin and niece of wonderful families (both mine and my husband's). I hope I can share some of the faith, hope, happiness and love I have been blessed with, with you.
