Our Family is Complete!!!


Well, I am sorry to say that I am just now getting around to blogging about finding out the sex of our baby! My appointment was last Friday, the 27th. I have to say that I have been thinking this entire time that it was another boy because our odds seemed pretty high. But on the morning of my appointment, I woke up and thought "I think it's a girl"... I really tried to make myself not think of a girl because I didn't want to be disappointed. I would have loved having another boy, don't get me wrong, but I was also wanting to have a little girl that I could someday go shopping with and just do girly things with! :) Well, we went into the ultrasound and first of all, I had a student work on me for like 30 min and she didn't really get any good crotch shots, but she said that she didn't see anything sticking out when she looked... so when the tech came in to take over I was so anxious for her to look, but she went back over everything the student did and it was like another 20 minutes until she came to that part. She was doing the ultrasound and said, "well, it's a girl!" I was like, are you sure? I have 3 boys and I want to make sure it's a girl! She said that she couldn't say 100 percent that it was but she was 99 percent sure and then she showed me the 3 lines, which I couldn't tell... all I could see was that it wasn't like any of the boy's ultrasounds! I was so shocked and so was Rod! Ethan was so excited because he wanted a baby sister so bad! So, we are having a girl! We are very excited and I have to say that I am a little overwhelmed at all the choices that I have when looking at everything girl! I cannot decide on bedding for the life of me! I think I have something picked out and then it changes... so, we will see! We have named our baby girl Ella Jean. Jean is a family name on all sides of our family and it is very special to us. Ella is the name we have liked for a really long time and it sure feels good to finally get to use it! Well, that 's the big news! Thought it was about time to take a brake from looking at girl things online and post about it!
