Sugar and Spice!!!!

It's a girl!!! I'm having a girl!!! I can't even put into words how excited we are.
Yesterday was an amazing experience to see this little girl in my belly dancing around, waving her arms and legs and putting on a show!!! It was so wonderful to hear that everthing is going well and the baby is healthy. What a relief!!
It was so much fun to call all my family yesterday and share the news!!! Lots of tears and shouts of joy! My cheeks hurt today because I don't think I stopped smiling yesterday!!
I really didn't realize how much I really wanted a baby girl until yesterday. I was prepared for either and really was happy to have either but when they said it was a girl I just couldn't stop the tears. It was such a different experience than with Carter.
When I had Carter it was an emergency C-section and the Dr.'s were really concerned about him. So when the Dr. pulled him out and said "It's a boy!!" I really didn't care. All I wanted to know was that he was healthy. So this time was so different because there was no stress involved. I could just soak up the moment and memorize the faces of my husband and son as they realized that it was a girl!!! Oh, I hope that memory never fades. I want to keep it forever!!
So watch out mall!!! It's dresses, bows, shoes, and PINK!!! Lots of it.
Oh crap now I have to decide on a name..... that could take awhile!! I think I'll just shop for now!!!

Baby Eve!!!

Ok today was my birthday... well actually yesterday was my birthday since it's 1A.M.
I had a wonderful birthday complete with gifts and a wonderful dinner with my boys... but I'm not excited for today.
See I feel like it's Christmas Eve and I have the smallest gift under the tree (since us girls know the small packages are the best!!) yet I can't open it until tomorrow!! At 10am tomorrow(or today) anyway in less than 9 hours I will be in the Dr.'s office with Gil and Carter and we will hopefully be able to find out what we are having!! I can't wait... I can't sleep... I just want these 9 hours to be over!!
I really just want a healthy baby.... honestly that's truely what I want. I don't ever want my baby to be sick like Carter was... that was pure hell.
Ok so ya I'd love to have a little girl... I'd love to buy all pink and put bows in her hair. I'd love to have a girl to grow old with and to be friends with and to teach her all the things my mom taught me. That would be Awesome.
Yet at the same time I'd be very happy with a little boy. A brother for Carter. I kno what to do with boys... I kinda know what to expect from a little boy. I've always said if I'm going to have all of one sex I'd want them to be all boys!
So we'll find out hopefully. I'm praying this baby won't play shy, that it'll let us know what it is!! I can't wait to tell everybody.
I realized tonight that when I had Carter I was not able to make any phone calls because of the c-section. Gil was the one that got to tell everybody that it was a boy!! So tomorrow I hope that I can make a million phone calls and tell everybody what we're having. Plus I'm so excited to watch Carter and to see his reaction!!
It's going to be Awesome.... So stay tuned and find out wether the new addition to our family is a boy or a girl!!!!
