I got an urgent e-mail from my sister this morning. She told me it had been nearly a month since I had posted last.
Really?!
A month?
Where has the time gone?
I can honestly say that I have been relaxing and enjoying time with my family. We took a ride on a friend's boat in the Gulf to a secluded island where the sand was white and the water was crystal clear. Isabella had a blast collecting seashells and having a picnic on the beach. It was heaven.
We've enjoyed days at the park, trips to the ice cream shop and shopping downtown.
Time really seemed to just stand still the past few weeks and I've loved it. Snuggling with my little girl and feeling Baby G kick and play in my tummy.
Heaven.
Back to my original post though....(I swear, I have the worst case of pregnancy brain!)
I am now 20 1/2 weeks pregnant--a little over the halfway mark. Unless this little one decides to make a late debut like their older sister.
The ultrasound went wonderfully. I was so nervous the entire time...the tech was pretty quiet and I was just there on the table daydreaming away and praying that everything was okay.
He then went and got Leo and Isabella where we got a couple of cute pictures and chatted. The baby weighs 13 oz and is right on for size. Heartbeat was in the mid 150's.
Then we found out the sex....
We...
are......

GIRL!
We can finally call her by her name, Olivia Diane.
And I just can't wait to meet our little Olivia!
We are beyond thrilled, blessed and just grinning ear to ear. What a great St. Patrick's Day this was!
