I had to apologize to my belly/baby yesterday because for the last 2 months I've been calling her a him! That's right ladies and gents....it's a girl!

Here she is!
And WOW did parenthood hit me like a brick yesterday. It almost didn't seem real until I saw that little body wiggling on the ultrasound screen. What an amazing little miracle. Who knew you could love something so much? Seeing her move and feeling her kick makes all of the changes and worries that come with pregnancy seem so trivial. Yes, my body will never be the same; yes, our lives are about to be turned upside-down; and yes it's true that there are a million ways that I as a parent can screw up my kid. Even so, I wouldn't trade this for the world. I am so in love :) So bring on the big hips and stretch marks! Bring on the sleepless nights and poopy diapers!
It is so worth it.
