Baby Mania

Since I’ve become pregnant, the only thing I really think about is the baby. I wonder how big it is, what’s going in there, how it will be when it’s here with us, what the gender will be, what the baby will look like…. It goes on and on and on!

Well, this week one of my many questions was finally answered. I guess I shouldn’t say “finally” considering we found out early, but we found out the baby is a girl! It was so exciting, and I loved hearing her little heartbeat again, I wish I could hear it or feel it all the time because it’s so special.

My mom was in town and so she came into the ultrasound room with us. She cried, I cried, and when I tell the baby about it down the road, she’ll cry too. Emotional girls, we are.

On another note, do you know how hard it is not to start buying clothes for the baby? Oh my goodness. But we’re really trying to budget, so I’m going to do my best. Today my mother-in-law bought the most adorable outfit (the one on the left) for her next summer.  The one on the right is part of how we told our in-laws I was expecting. Because I love baby elephants, it was perfect.

And one final photo… doesn’t T.J. look adorable with his little cousin? He’ll be such a great daddy!
