So when you plan to get pregnant or its just simply by surprise. The reality is that you only have a 50/50 shot at either sex baby. That is if there is only one in there. And thank goodness in our case there was in deed just one. At our 20 week ultrasound Isaac was sweating bullets. He told me in the waiting room he thought he actually might just throw up. I couldn't help but laugh, after all he did realize fretting about it wouldn't change a thing. And its not that he wouldn't love a baby girl, its just, I suppose it would have been easier on his heart if it were a boy. Well he had that poor ultrasound tech searching and searching for what seemed like days for a penis. And there wasn't not one to be found. Poor Daddy...he looked like he had been punched in the gut.
I think deep down he was excited. And I knew that he would be just fine. He would have another 20 weeks to come around to the idea of a baby girl. And another 15-18 years to think about how to keep the boys away. (wink, wink) Then there was our sweet Eli, He was just sure he was having a brother...I wonder who placed that in his head. Well we finally convinced him that we were having a girl and not a boy. And eventually he started telling people everywhere we went as he would point to my belly he would say "thats my sister"! He is going to be the best Big Brother!
Here is our sweet baby girl!! Her name will be
Shalyn Paige!
And we already love her so very much!!
