Yesterday was the big day!!  Before I jump to conclusions let me give you the full days story.

It all began with a very "uncomfortable" ride to the hospital.  Some words were exchanged between Matt and I to the point where I didn't even care to find out what we were having anymore.  So I'm walking into the hospital and I call my sweet sweet mother to see where she is.  This is how the conversation goes:

Morgan: Hey where are you?
Mom: I'm sitting on the couch...why?
Morgan: Ummm my appointment is in 5 minutes.
Mom: I thought it was tomorrow.
Morgan: No...its today...I told you that!!
Mom: well let me get dressed
Morgan: no, don't worry about it...Renee will be here!
Mom: ok, I'm sorry Morgan

So this was just the topping on the cake!!  I was livid!!  So I walked in to the appointment and THERE SITS MY MOTHER!!  Uggghhhh  She better be glad she was sitting there!!  Thats all I gotta say!

So we wait a few minutes (not long at all actually considering some people think my doctor has long waits) and they call me and Matt back to do the awful blood tests, weigh in, blood pressure, and pee in a cup.  Of course, I overfilled it like I do every single time!!  I just don't ever know how close I'm getting to the top of the cup.  Then we go to a room and they bring back my wolfpack  family.  Mom, Renee (MIL), Lauren (BFF), and Braeden.  After a few minutes we go to the back room to have the ultrasound done.  They have this room all decorated up real nice with couches and chairs.  There was even a tv on the wall for me to see what the lady was doing so I didn't break my neck trying to look at the monitor.  I thought that was pretty cool.  She looked around and looked around made sure we had all the arms and legs (yes we do) and then FINALLY she says....."100%........GIRL"  I almost jumped off the bed with excitement!!  And I look over at Braeden and he looks back at me and his lips gets to quivering.  Then came the tears!!!  Who would of thought he would react like that!!!!  It broke my heart!!!!!!!!  He kept telling everyone (and I mean everyone) that if the baby was a girl Corkey (our dog) was going to be his brother.  Needless to say, he DOES NOT want a sister. 

After the ultrasound my mom and I went and talked with the doc and everything is looking good for me.  Besides these stupid headaches that I get EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!!!!!  I am allowed to take ib profen twice a week.  Hopefully that will help. 

Renee took Braeden to Wal-Mart to get a Yoda (star wars creature he wants) then to McDonald's to get a milkshake.  While they were at Wal-Mart she asked him if they could go get little sister a present and he said "No, and when she is born I'm going to my room and I'm shutting the door".  So apparently the Yoda didn't make him like his sister but it got him to stop crying!!  After walmart and mcdonalds we went to the park with Lauren and Chance and their kids.  The kids played for 2 hours.  Braeden was worn out by the end of the day yesterday!!  And so were his parents!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh yeah, and here are the ultrasound pictures.  I need to get a belly bump pic added...maybe this afternoon.


And one more thing, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY WONDERFUL HUSBAND!!!!

Just because I'm bored and want to post something!!

Some people make these lists of things they like, things they don't like, things they do, things they don't do...So I figured I would make me a list. 

Here goes......

1.  (Since strawberry cupcakes are on the mind)  My BFF Lauren makes the BEST strawberry cupcakes.  I don't think they are made any special way but because of her cupcakes I crave strawberries.
2.  I just finished off a box of Trefoil girl scout cookies.  Let's just say I wish I had another box.  I WILL NOT tell you how many cookies I just ate!!
3.  I didn't mean for this list to be all about food but while I'm at it...I LOVE me some US Pizza salads!!  I think I could eat one for every meal!!
4.  I can no longer fit into my jeans!!!  I have 1 pair (maybe 2) that I can wear...at the moment.  [I am wearing sweat pants today how professional is that]
5.  I really really really want to bedazzle my Realtor name tag.  (kind of like this but cooler) But, there is only one problem.  I just bought the thing 2 weeks ago and I have already lost it!!!  I have a feeling that it's strong magnetic force has pulled it to something that I cannot see.  Therefore, I shall be nameless and bedazzle-less.
6.  I have 11 days until I find out the gender of my AVATAR (inside joke).  I absolutely cannot wait another day to find out.  I want to buy stuff so stinkin' bad right now and I'm going insane!!  I picked out the car seat and stroller and pack and play and bedding...all for a girl of course...but I think it I can get it all in boy colors if that is what God has chosen for me to birth.
7.  Diet Coke does not taste as good to me as it did 3 months ago.  What can I drink in place?  (must contain caffeine)
8.  My BFF that is mentioned in #1 just got an embroidery machine.  She just doesn't know what she has done to herself.  I might have to take out stock in TuTu Cute!!
9.  There is an app on my iPhone that I couldn't live without!!  It's from a well known real estate website called realtor.com and I don't think I could do my job without it.  I can pull up listings on my phone while walking around someones house during a showing.  You just don't know how helpful that is!!
10.  I got new living room furniture yesterday and I think I'm in love!!  I have the most wonderful in-laws in the world. 
11.  I got a contract signed today.  So please keep your fingers crossed all weekend long that it gets accepted on Monday.
12.  I'm starting to look obsessed with Lauren but how you could you not be when she has the cutest kid in the world!!  If she would just let me adopt him I promise I would not have anymore kids!!


13.  I have this white shirt from Wal-Mart that I absolutely L-O-V-E!!  I wear it at least twice a week and I feel so stinking cute when I wear it.
14.  My mother has had pneumonia (spelling) for the past MONTH and I miss her so much.  I haven't seen her in such a long time and that just isn't right!!  Must have mom time soon!!!  Please get better!!!
