Baby Girl Swanson


We had our 20 week ultrasound today...and all signs point pink! She was a little unsure at the beginning so I patiently waited towards the end for her to really confirm it was a girl and it is. I'm so excited and we're so blessed that, although she was quite feisty and the technician warned us what a stinker she already is, she is very healthy. She had trouble finding all the parts she needed right away cause baby girl kept moving and then waving at us but she found everything and it all looked good. We learned from Max that the womb is definitely where the personality starts and is rather accurate! One of each is just perfect. If we win the lottery (or HGTV dream home, which is more likely since we don't play the lottery) we'll have a house full of kids but for now, we're perfectly happy and complete with one of each!

(PS: You will all have to wait for a name again, some things have to be secret!)

Nate showed Max the pictures and he just said "Max" cause he thinks every baby is Max. But he does know where the baby is and will point to, and want to see, my belly. Although I think he kinda thinks that there is a baby in everyone's belly....

So now I have the task of sorting out 2 huge trash bags full of clothes and seeing what a girl may wear, what I want to keep for some possible nieces and nephews and what I want to give away to some friends who are expecting. I'm excited to get up there and sort things out because the baby stuff is just in random piles in the attic and its kind of driving me crazy!

Of course this is what this sweet little girl has to look forward to.... a CRAZY big brother!!!

(Silly hat Grandpa and Grandma Diana gave him for C'mas)

20 week shot, gotta love this picture... my stomach somehow comes to a point, the curtains look "shiny" and of course Max's face...
