The Big Reveal

Milo and I went to the doctor last Thursday and had our 20 week ultrasound. The baby looked great. I kept mistaking body parts on the screen... at one point I thought the heart that was beating was an ear flapping. The sonographer corrected me. :) The baby was relaxing with her arms behind her head. She was relatively still for the whole process. At the very end of the sonogram they told us it was a girl. :) I was shocked. I thought this whole time it was a boy. I even wore blue that day on purpose! We were thrilled to hear the news and I dont think I stopped smiling the entire day.

Thursday night we got the family together to do the reveal. Milo and I got a big box and filled it with Pink 'It's a girl' balloons. We wrapped the box and had my sister and mom open it while everyone watched.

My mom started screaming "It's a girl" after she saw the pink balloons. You can see by the look on Robins face that she hasnt seen the balloons yet, so she has a shocked look on her face! lol.

Mom clapping, because she finally got a granddaughter

Robin is still in shock at this point I think...

After the reveal to my family that was in GP, we called my sister in Arkansas. Julie and her boys had visited earlier in the week so I sent home 2 packages, #1 & #2 with toys in the corresponding color of the sex of the baby. Julie had her boys sit on the couch while we all watched from Texas on the webcam. They were hoping for a boy so we got a kick out of watching them react to pink stuff!

These are the buckets before we wrapped them up. They have candy and toys in them.

The boys, getting ready for us to tell them which one to open.

This picture below was taken right after they opened package #1!!!

Of course they got to open the blue package also, just for fun. :)

This is the cookie cake Milo took to work the next day. He is so excited he is having a little girl! 'Daddy's little star' is what he already calls her. (After the Cowboys Star, of course)
