1/2 way there!!

Well, I've made it and so far so good. The worst is over. The sickenss is mostly gone, the baby is growing fast (me too), and we finally know we're going to have a sweet baby girl! The 20 week appointment went really well. Unlike Mia, this baby is measuring right on track! Mia was enough behind they could have changed my due date, but luckily didn't. This baby measured at 20 weeks 3 days, so just a little ahead of schedule. Everything looked good, except that she was way to much of a little wiggly worm, which now means I get another ultrasound at my next appointment. The radiologist didn't get the best look at her heart and although she sees no reason to worry, she said she didn't want to just assume things were fine. So I'll get to see my sweet baby girl and her progress again in a few more weeks!

I must admit I was really really shocked to find out this baby is a girl. I am still thrilled to be having another baby and am thrilled that it's a girl now that it's sunk in a little bit. This pregnancy has so different than it was with Mia, some symptoms have been worse, some not nearly as bad. Mainly I haven't been nearly as sick as I was with Mia and the sickness has gone away a lot sooner than it did the 1st time around, luckily. As much as I would love to have a sweet baby boy, It'll be so so fun to see Mia with a baby sister and I have high hopes that they'll always be really close and always have each other. My sister is a bit older than me with siblings between us and I grew up always wishing for a sister close to my age, so I'm so glad for Mia that she'll have that. I guess it just means we'll have to have 1 more baby in a few years or so. Definately not doing this again anytime soon.

Those of you in AZ, get ready for next month!! We'll be there for 2 weeks during Christmas and would LOVE to see you all. Can't wait to get away and have a vacation with my loves and visit friends and family and to get warm weather back for a couple weeks! YAY! Can't wait to see everyone!!
