We had a very BIG weekend!!! Eliza has come to stay with us for the weekend and we had so much fun! Since Pace was in town for the weekend, we decided it would be fun to make an appointment at Stork Vision so we could try to find out what the sex of the babies are. Stork Vision is a beautiful little office, very cozy and the worker there - Jill was so loving and comforting during the entire process.
The ultrasound has revealed with 99% certainty that we will be having two beautiful little girls!!! It was so amazing to see them and with the 3D and 4D ultrasound we could watch them move around and see such clear details of their faces. I did the huge ugly cry that I just couldn't stop.
Although this is not what I had envisioned when I thought about Pace and I finding out the gender of our future child(ren)...another woman lying on the table with her swollen belly exposed, it was still an amazing experience. It is very surreal and at times hard to imagine that this will all actually happen.
Sunday morning we went shopping and got Eliza some maternity clothes. It was a little sad for me purchasing maternity clothes for another woman. The maternity section of stores is one that I avoid at all costs, so actively looking through the clothes and picking things out was a little tough. Then we moved over to the other section of the store that I swear triggers PTSD...the baby section. We searched through all of the clothes and found two adorable sets of onsies and matching tights and coordinating headbands. One purple and one pink. They are the most adorable outfits I have ever seen.
We ordered the cribs for the nursery today. It was a huge leap of faith that this will all work out. I would be lying if I said I didn't have a minor panic attack before completing the purchase. This journey is just so emotional and such a stretch of faith for everyone involved.
I believe that I may just age 10 years over the next 5 months.
