shocked and surprised in an amazingly good way.
not that i thought this baby was a girl, i just didn't let myself think it was a boy. this pregnancy has been different but i just would not let myself thing those differences meant boy. and truly we were praying for a healthy baby.
but boy changes things.
if this would be a girl. we would be set. we would have some fun and pick her out a few new things. decorate her room. make her her quilt. and be good.
but boy. he needs all sorts of things.
it is actually quite overwhelming.
it feels a bit like starting over.
we have already begun shopping for his things. we have picked up some clothes. started to think about his bedroom. picked up some baseball fabric. some newborn diapers. we have looked at blankys and crib sheets.
the other night cece and i laid the things out that we have for him on our bed. she loves all things baby so this is her jam. we started brainstorming all the things we need to get him. we made a list.
the list seems pretty long.
and i thought girls took a lot of work ;)
little by little we will get him all he needs. and i know it all doesn't have to be perfect. i know that. but i also want to be ready for him.
oh baby boy. we love you.
