21 Weeks Pregnant and She’s a Girl!

I don’t’ need a lot of words for this one! I’m 21 weeks “along” now and our sweet baby is doing just fine. We got to see her on Thursday, and she is measuring perfectly and all of her organs are developing well and in working order.

She wiggled around a LOT during the anatomy scan, so it was tough to get good pictures of her, but it was so cool to watch her moving around inside of me.

I cannot wait to meet our little girl… but on the other hand, she needs to hang out in her little bubble inside of me for a while longer and “cook.” We have a lot of preparations to do before she gets here!

    Man, I was going to get you cute t-shirts for Christmas but I was like “Nawww she'll be pregnant, she won't be able to wear them for long and then she'll be saaaad” but you aren't even wearing maternity clothes now, are you?! Dang, girl!

    Thanks Amber! :) We can't wait to meet her either.
    Except, like I said… we do need her to hang out for a while. We're so not set up for a baby yet.

    Congratulations! We, too, are having a little girl! And Mr. Husband is a bit… concerned. He says he grew up a boy so that's all he knows. Haha! :)

    Oh Congrats! I am so excited for you. I have 2 step daughters and they are wonderful. I've had them since they were 6 months and 1.5 years, so they are basically my babies! (They live with us)

    Girls are so much easier to raise then boys (although I hear the teen years are the roughest!)

    You are looking adorable, and your baby is precious. Cant wait to “meet” her!

    :D
