A week or so ago, Dave and I went to the doctor for the official ultrasound. We receive one every time we go to the doctor, but this is the one where they measure all their little legs and arms, but most importantly, we found out what our little nuggets are, boys or girls.
There will be a ton of estrogen in the house, because we have 2 more little ladies coming to join us in what looks like most likely December. The first thing Dave said when he found out is "Well, it looks like I will be coaching a softball team instead of a baseball team." What a hoot!
I think I took it a bit harder, honestly, than Dave did. Prior to the ultrasound, he did not want to tell anyone what his guess was for what the sexes were. And I was really hoping for one boy. So when we found out, he said that was his guess, so he seemed alright. I was the one that need a little retail therapy to get me through the afternoon.
The more I think about it though, the more excited I become. We have bought a few matching outfits, for the fun occasions, not for everyday use. And I just keep thinking about how great it will be to see Josie with her little sisters, all playing house or dress up together. I am actually not worried about the little ages at all. What is scaring me the most is that we are going to have a 16 year old and two 15 year olds. Oh-my...that is a lot of estrogen (and not to mention a lot of adolescence).
3 car payments, 3 colleges, 3 weddings....wow. We will definitely have our work cut out for us. It will be hard, we understand that, but we are really preparing ourselves and up for the challenge. We are excited to see our new ones and to be able to hold them.
I am currently 20 weeks along, past my half way point since I will not be going full term or 40 weeks. Both little ladies are weighing in a little over 9 ounces (which is larger than average!). We just keep praying that I make it to Christmas break at school...this is the goal.
We will be posting ultrasound pics, as soon as Dave helps me download them in. Thanks for checking in on us. Please keep praying for the little ones.
