Anticipation

So a month ago I schedule my ultrasound appointment for when I am 19 weeks and 6 days at 9am so I could know the gender the earliest possibly allowed without paying extra. So it seemed all great until Perry was upset that he wouldn't be able to be there when we found out. I love to plan and have parties so I decided to make an event of it all. Conveniently my sister and mother were going to be passing through that weekend anyway. Then my sister and dad decided to tag along too because of the party.....Party details and pictures will be for after the party.

This situation put me in a little anxious predicament. I have now seen the precious one on the large flat screen tv at the dr.s office. The baby would lay there then roll over to its other side. The baby would put its hand by its face, and then would cross them in front of the chest. I even got to see the baby kick me while looking at the legs and feet and feel it. lol. So fun. I saw the four chambers of the heart, ect... It is most exciting just to watch the baby move on there.

Anyway, since I planned a party I have the results on my windowsill in an envelope just waiting for me to take a peak but I will not. I sure hope I sleep tonight lol. I'm a ball of anxiety. Luckily my family is coming tonight and will distract me somewhat. And I successfully took a nap this afternoon without dreams about the cutting the cake part of the party (which inside will reveal the gender). I had the party dream over and over again with the results being a boy last night. However all of my dreams involving a real baby have been a girl.

Reasons I want a girl.

1. I want to make sure I have a girl eventually (like I can secure any of that fate on my own lol).
2. I want to buy cute pretty dresses and all those girlie things!!!!!
3. I want the baby to look like me. Grant just does not look like me at all and I hope that if I have one of my gender there's a chance that there's more of me there lol.
4. I want to not feel shy about doing another baby shower. There are better reasons to have a shower when you have zero girly stuff.

Reasons I want a boy.

1. To insure Grant has a little brother. (What if after "this" girl we always have more girls!? This would truly be sad for Grant.)
2. I have all the boy stuff I need.
3. Boys are really fun to dress too.
4. We love Grant of course and he's a boy lol.

So there you have it. Grant can't officially vote but every time we ask him what he thinks the baby will be he says it will be a girl. :) I have also voted girl.

Wish me luck for the next 19 1/2 hours.
