We are having....

So I have to say yesterday was probably one of the best days of my life. We went to the doctor and had an ultrasound and finally got to know for sure what the gender of our little cupcake is!

It was a magical experience for my husband and I. Not that sex was a huge deal to us, we just wanted a healthy baby foremost, however we were beyond thrilled to find out we are having .....

A GIRL!! We both cried a little as they told us she looked healthy. We were able to see the chambers of her heart flickering as well as her dancing around and stretching her legs AND having the hiccups!

The things that are in my heart are like nothing I have felt before or could have imagined. The love I feel for my husband, and for our little girl is something that makes me feel bigger than myself. Everything feels bright, and I have all the hopes of the world for our little baby.

On a physical level I keep imagining the dynamics of how our family will work. What will she be like? Will she be funny like her dad, or serious like me. Will she be born with hair for me to play with and put in little pony tales? I think of all the things I want to give her. How I want to make her things to make her feel pretty and special.
I think of tea party's

And birthday cakes

and family vacations and pictures with our dog. I think of how Holidays will change, and how our family's will interact with our little girl too.

But most importantly I think of the important things. I want to be a good mom, and teach her that valuable things come from the inside out. I want her to realize love is the most important thing and the best gift we have. I want her to know her creator and have an unquestioning love for God. I want her to see what relationships can be like through the example of my husband and I, and of course I want her to have confidence in herself and her dreams to know that she can be whoever she wants and we will always be proud.

I woke up today with the biggest heart possible and for all the blessing in my life I am so thankful!

Sending big smiles your way wherever you are reading from!

Sabrina & my baby girl!!

  3. Sabrina, you are so creative, you should start making felt play food for your little girl. There are some etsy sellers that will blow your mind with what they make. If Erin had had a girl I would make it some. :)
