Well the anticipation and wait is over! We are having a girl!
Justin was very quiet at first and smiles and says "she's going to be daddy's girl you know that right?!" haha! Well of course! I am so happy! He will make such a wonderful dad! He is so great with our friends daughter Hannah, I know he will do just fine with our daughter!
Calleigh Renee Selseth~ Her heart rate has been in the 150's which I am told is great, she weighed roughly 14 oz as of friday... Funny how something SO little can cause such a thump in my tummy already!
We have been trying to prepare as much as possible without going "over board" and buying things we shouldn't yet since the baby shower will be in Dec. Luckily we have gotten things such as a changing table and clothing items that will be needed right off the bat, and the clothing later on down the road:
Justin was towing a customer last week who didn't speak much english, her daughter in law was with her to help explain the process of the tow, and where her car would be taken. While giving them a ride back to the shop where the car would be left, they engaged in small talk and he mentioned that we were going to be having a girl. After they came back to the shop, the gals expressed how sweet he was, how big of a help he was and how much they appreciated him helping them. The daughter in law explained they too had a little girl and would love to give us some clothing that she had outgrown. No objections here!! Honestly I didn't think they would follow through since we didn't know them at all but the gesture was nice. HOWEVER, 3 days later they came to the shop with two white garbage bags full of clothing sizes ranging from 12 months - 2t!! I was SHOCKED that there were so many clothes! Luckily I had an extra 18 gallon tote in the spare room that is now FULL of clothing for later. How lucky we are! =]
