A GIRL!!

All grandparents know the name we have picked out but we would like for her name to remain a secret to everyone else for personal reasons! I was in such shock and disbelief when we found out and I couldn't wait to call my mother because out of 9 grandchildren, she has not one granddaughter!! Lucas kept asking what percentage the ultrasound tech was sure it was a girl and why is she laying like that?! She was laying like she was folded in half, silly girl!! He is so excited and he can't wait to have a daddys girl!

Oh exciting! I starting feeling actual kicking on monday the 13th, very random and daddy hasn't felt it yet but its all so new to us- everytime we get used to a certain way that I feel (emotionally and physically) it changes drastically. I have had a LOT of trouble sleeping lately and so Lucas has been suffering, which he has been SO good about! Between leg cramps and back pain and peeing every other hour, sleep seems more and more distant. So im sure you guys want to see what the belly looks like this week so here you go! Im also going to be posting the latest ultrasound photos from last week.
Okay well thats it for now... If I think of anything else I'll be sure to post again this week!
Thanks for reading!
