I can see that I am carrying slightly higher this time around.... I can also see that I was very very pale when I was pregnant with Ashlyn. Thank you Myrtle Beach!
So, seeing as I am 18 weeks (seriously, how am I already 18 weeks??), that means that the big ultrasound is in less than 2 weeks! I am honestly dying! I have been waiting since July 20th of last year to be able to go baby shopping so I think that it is appropriate to say that I am dying to go shopping!!! Before I can go shopping though we need to have our big reveal party!!! We are combining the reveal with our annual Browns kickoff party! Here is the invite that I made... I must say, I love how it turned out! Love it!
Having the invite done made me all the more excited for the party! I am even more excited for the ultrasound! I can't wait to see my baby!
So, what is your guess? Boy or girl?
I can't really gauge myself.
Besides the obvious of wanting a healthy baby, I am hoping for a girl. I lost my daughter and though no other baby can ever replace her I still want another girl. I pictured Ashlyn and her sister growing up together, fighting, sharing... Now, let me reiterate that I KNOW that no baby, boy or girl, will ever replace Quinn but that doesn't make me not wish for a girl.
I will, of course, be happy with a healthy baby of either gender but a girl can hope.
I will also admit that I know full well that this is most likely a boy and I am very prepared for that fact but until those blue balloons go floating up, I will hold onto that hope that they just might be pink.

I hoped for a third girl, too, for the exact same reasons! Now I am thinking that D being a boy will help in some ways I never realized. I am still crossing my fingers for another little girl some day though!
I can't wait to find out what you're having!!!
You are right about being a comfort in ways you didn't realize. Steve has said that he thinks it might be slightly easier if Bee turns out to be a boy simply because there will be less comparing. I don't know... I think we are in for an emotion journey regardless but maybe he is right! Only 10 more days till we will know for sure =)
Unless someone slips at the u/s and tells us ;)
