Lets train

Yesterday was our 20 week ultrasound, also known as the "Big Ultrasound".
I am always so nervous before this ultrasound.
I had so much nervous energy this weekend that I got a lot done on my 40 bags in 40 days list (which I will post about later this week).
So, back to yesterday. I was a nervous wreck all day at school. Couldn't stop praying.
On my way to the appointment I kept praying for a healthy baby.
I had tears in my eyes, I was just so nervous (I am a freak show).
When we got to the Dr's office, we were the only ones there, so we didn't even have to wait at all! (That is a first!)
And, I am happy to report that It's A......

......Healthy Baby!
We are so thankful & relieved.

I bet you are wondering if the baby is a Boy or a Girl?
That is a great question.
The answer is....

We didn't find out! :)

I know, I know.
Much to all our family & friends dismay,
we are those "annoying" people who wait until the baby is born.
We didn't find out with the girls, and the surprise was SO fun.
People thought we would for sure find out with this one because we already have 2 girls, so of course we would find out. But, no....we are waiting!

And, I am a TOTAL PLANNER, so it is surprising to people that I wait until birth to find out.
I was the kid growing up who would sneak peeks at my Christmas presents.
I plan my girls birthday parties almost a year before they happen.
So, yes, I am a planner.
But there are few surprises in life and there is something so magical & special about not knowing and hearing the doctor say as I birth the baby,
"It's a...........!!!"
I love, love, love that moment.

I actually had a dream last week that at our 20 week ultrasound, the dr slipped and told me what it was & I was SO upset in my dream that he told me.

So, we will wait & see what the baby is in August when he or she is born.
What we do know is that Baby Larson #3 is healthy & we Praise God for that.
We truly don't care if it is a boy or a girl.
I grew up in a family of 3 girls, so I know how fun that is.
I love my sisters more than anything. I have 2 girls, so it would be fun to have another.
I know girls, I have girly stuff.
But, on the other hand, I would love for Kevin to have a boy. And, I think it would be fun to experience having a boy since I don't have one & never had a brother. And, I love sports, so I can totally deal with a boy. But...boys scare me...It is the fear of the unknown! I mean, they have boy parts...how do you change a boy diaper?

The girls want it to be a boy. Kevin doesn't really care. He is an amazing dad of girls, but I think he wants a boy so that he doesn't have to pay for 3 weddings. Ha!

With my girls, I was pretty sure they were girls.
With this one, I am not sure! I can't make a guess yet.
Which makes me think, maybe it is a boy?!?!

All 3 pregnancies have been the same.
Horrible all day sickness & puking starting at 6 weeks and lasting until 20+ weeks.
I am living off cereal and bagels. Can't eat anything spicy.
I am worthless at night. Night is the absolute worst. Kevin is my hero and for the past 4 months taken care of me, the girls & the house. So thankful for him.

So, until August, it is a guessing game on if it is a Boy or a Girl.
What do YOU think?!?!?!
