A Little Girly!



Ok, so we finally found out what we are having! We went and had the ultrasound done yesterday and got the pictures and everything- it's going to be a girl. Our families are very excited, and so are we. The grandmothers seem to be the most excited though. With it being the first grandchild on both sides, she is going to be sooooo spoiled.



Everything seems healthy so far, so hopefully nothing changes and things go crazy. I'm right at 20 weeks, or 5 months for those of you who don't like math, and I had to start wearing maternity clothes right after Christmas. With how short I am, there's no where but out for this baby to really go.


It seems like we're going to have a real character on our hands come July- she was acting so funny during the ultrasound. She was smiling at us, moving around a ton, and we even got a shot of her putting the back of her hand up on her forehead like some drama queen. We're thinking about naming her Alaina, but we're still working on a middle name.

Christmas



Ok, so I'm not the greatest at getting my blog started, but I'm working on it. Cory and I had a great Christmas and spent Christmas Eve and moring with my family. We had all my dad's family over that night and Cory had to play Santa- my mom found this cheesy suit a few years back on clearance for $3, and my dad kept saying that it looked like there was a rat on his face. That morning was pretty funny because my mom is so excited for the baby, that Santa even brought some presents for it. She's pretty convinced that it's going to be a boy, so the baby got spiderman sippy cups and some toy that makes more noise than should ever be allowed.


Later on that day we went to the Pehrsons for a belated Christmas morning. Cory's sister Marci and her husband Larry went in on a gift for their parents with us and we got them a vacuum. Aparently they still had the same one from when they first got married and it was being held together by duct tape. My mother-in-law was pretty excited for it, even before it was opened. She was so curious at what was in the huge box that she had to wait to open.


Cory's brother, Joey, was pretty awesome this year and donated plasma a couple of times before Christmas so he could have enough money to buy his sitster Heidee a dress, even though we draw names and put a $20 limit on gifts.


We also got a few rounds of guitar hero in, so it was a pretty good Christmas I'd say.
