Happy Monday friends!! Well from the title of the post I’ve been keeping a rather big secret for the last few months…we’re having a baby!!
We found out on International Women’s Day that Baby P is a GIRL and to say I was shocked would be an understatement! After a rather vivid dream in my first trimester of holding a baby boy, I had myself pretty much convinced that’s what it would be – so that whole mother’s intuition thing was a little off!
This Saturday, Gary and I went to my friend Valerie’s studio to do a little impromptu gender reveal. These are just a few of the photos that she has already sent over so I wanted to share, but we took so many that I will definitely be doing another blog post!
I hope this explains why I’ve been a little all over the place blog wise. I’m due the first week of August so that puts me at a little over 19 weeks right now. We found out we were expecting the week after Thanksgiving and things have been going at warped speed since then while simultaneously feeling like it’s going by slowly – I realize this makes zero sense! I have a lot of posts planned now that the secret it out I’m really looking forward to documenting this journey in different ways.
I went back and read every single pregnancy and trimester post you mama’s have shared and I can’t tell you what lifesavers they were! I also want to thank you for all the birthday wishes on my last post – from the texts, to the tweets to all the messages, I felt the love in so many ways!! I hope you all have an amazing start to your week!
