We went to get our 20 week ultrasound yesterday and found out we are having a girl. We both were convinced Baby Nemo was a boy so I had the tech check a few times to make sure that the vital male parts were missing. The tech swears it is a girl and has a grainy picture to prove it.
So - Yeah! Poor Lance is going to be outnumbered three to one (if you include our dog).
We are still trying to let the news sink in. I am finally starting to get nervous about being a parent and having this little life join our family. As excited as I am, I have had fleeting thoughts, such as "What are we getting ourselves into?" I am sure every first time parent has some jitters.
Only 20 more weeks before Baby Girl Smemoe is scheduled to arrive. We can't wait to meet her. We are also enjoying the last weeks we have to sleep in a little late and go on dates without having to find a babysitter.

Hooray! Congratulations, you guys! A little girl will be so much fun. Any thoughts on a name yet? :)
ReplyDeleteAs for the nervous thoughts.... they are perfectly normal. You will do just great. Sure, there's a lot of trial and error, but you will be surprised at how much natural mothering instinct will suddenly make itself apparent.
Congrats again!
Hooray for little girls! I'm excited for your adventure. Enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteGirls are great! When she is older, you can go get manicures together. How fun!
ReplyDeleteYeah! Congratulations! A girl, how exciting! I'm sure that Lance doesn't mind being outnumbered by cute girls :-) What a wonderful Merry Christmas & Happy New Years for y'all! Congrats again!
