WE'RE HAVING A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!! I could not be more excited!!!! Since we found out we were pregnant, Michael and I have both been thinking we were having a girl. When we talk about the baby we say her (or her name, which is still a secret) and when we picture our family or our baby she is a girl. Michael has had dreams that we were having a girl, including one where she had long dark hair like Michael's color, only it was in loose ringlets. :) I cannot wait for her to get here!!! October still seems so far away! But 5 months are over now, and we are on the downhill slide with only 4 months left to go!
I was updating our registries today and realized this little girl needs a lot of stuff! :P I probably need to go through and get rid of some of the cloth diapers that I've registered for, as I have plenty of my own, without anyone needing to buy more, but I just can't help it! :P They are all so cute!! Can't wait to get her in them!
She is moving and kicking more than ever these days. I think she has discovered just how much room she has, and she's using every inch of it! She moves all over the place and kicks and wiggles constantly! When I've been laying down for a while and move or adjust myself I have got some really hard kicks that make me lay back down and go, Woah! What's going on in there??? Michael feels her almost every day, either putting his hands on my belly, or when I'm cuddled up next to him, she'll give him a couple kicks too. It's so cool feeling her moving around in there. I'm looking forward to many more months of movement (try saying that 5 times fast!)
The housewarming and gender reveal went very well. It was nice having friends and family over, to show them our new home, and to share our baby news with them. :) We have lots of leftovers, but I'm working on them, and that means no more cooking for several days! Wooohooo!
Finally, for those of you who haven't heard yet, Michael and I are keeping our little pumpkin's name under wraps until she arrives. People have opinions about everything, and what we name our baby is our decision and we don't want to hear the opinions. :P So when we announce that she has arrived, she will already have a name and everyone can just love it and tell us how much they love it, or keep their other opinions to themselves. ;) This also eliminates the risk of someone taking our name. ;) We have the first name settled, but the middle name is still up in the air. We have 2 names that we both like, so we're just going to see which one we lean more towards over the next 4 months. :)
Hope you all are well. Keep up those prayers for Michael, pumpkin, and myself. We need them! Love you all!
-Michael, Jen, and Baby Voss
