Baby week 20, Its a GIRL!!!

We finally found out the gender and much to our surprise (besides everyone telling us), the doctor revealed its a little baby girl! The last few week have been a bit tough in the self esteem department, I realized that being pregnant and short is sometimes a little bit hard. I was asked 2 times if I was having twins, and most people cannot believe I'm ONLY 5 months. One of the people who commented this way was even pregnant herself! Some peoples kids.... However today I decided that I didn't care, I would rather have a bigger healthy baby if that is what my body will allow to do. Clint and I are very excited, but now he realizes that someday that little cute baby will grow up into being a teenager, and if she is as wild as all of her previous Merchen aunts uncles and cousins, she is going to do whatever the hell she wants :). We haven't really started compiling outfits and baby goodies yet, but Nannie (her chosen name) Susan has been texting me all day with outfits and toys, while Grandma Laura I am sure has the yarn picked out for an awesome blanket. Now my new goal is to start Christmas present making, and watching out for great deals on baby girl stuff. Oh here is the nice family picture we took when we got home. Charlie was so excited about having a little sister he wanted to wear my purple scarf, and Clint was beaming with joy as well (can't you tell?! :)) In all fairness this is a look into her future about 14 years from now....
