For no reason that we can articulate now, my husband and I were just plain SURE that this baby was going to be a boy. We had no evidence, no proof, just a belief and a hope....
I did this same thing when I was pregnant with Grace, I was just sure, from the day I found out I was pregnant that this was going to be my girl. So much so, that I was already adding girly things to my registry well before we ever found out for sure.
Luckily, that time I was right, I mean, I had a 50/50 chance...
Anywho, the day we went to the doctor to find out baby gender we were ready to just finally be told we were having a boy so that I could start getting things together and making quilts like I did with my other two and so on and so forth.
I made these yummy cake balls with a secret colored center to reveal to the kids what the baby was going to be |
literally I could eat white chocolate on just about anything... |
So, this is how we told the kids....
When the ultrasound technician spilled the beans that baby #3 was in fact a girl we were so confused. We made her check another time and still another after that....
But alas, Baby Girl it is. We weren't disappointed, we had already decided that we would be overjoyed no matter what we were having, but to say that we were shocked was an understatement.
We had to take a couple of days actually to recalibrate. We had friends and family practically knocking down our door trying to find out what they told us at the doctor, but we couldn't utter it, strictly because we were still in disbelief of it.
After we got it together and got used to the idea and then excited about the idea we decided we would reveal it to our kids, and thusly everyone else through facebook.
We are Very pleased to be bringing another beautiful little girl in the world to love and pamper!
Have you been shocked by your baby's gender before too like we were? I would LOVE to hear about it in the comments!
