IT'S A GIRL!!!!


Ok so we found out on Monday that our new little baby is going to be a girl. To be honest her Daddy was a little disappointed because he is soooo outnumbered, but...by the end of the night he was on the computer looking for names :) He came up with a little list of cute names that I am sure we will be able to agree on.
We also played a little joke on Auntie Ca. She is just soooo easy to trick and gets sooo mad that I couldn't pass up the chance :) We told her we were not going to find out what the gender of the baby was. She even tried to convince Ruben to to get the Ultrasound tech to write it down on a piece of paper for her and put it in an envelope. When the ultrasound was over and I told her we did not find out what the gender was, she was so mad. She called me EVIL!! :) And all I could do was laugh inside. I sent a text message out to all our friends that said "ITS A GIRL!!! My sister does not know what it is, so if you know her please keep it quiet" I planned on telling her the next day by getting her something really girly and having Jadyn bring it to her. My plan didnt work out like that so, I had Jadyn call her and say "ITS A GIRL" she didnt understand what she said at first so Jadyn had to say it again. Auntie was a little mad at first, but I think she was just so excited it was a girl that she really didnt care. (I wonder what she would have done if it was a boy?) I know how she feels though because I really wanted Emmie to be a girl and I was extremely excited to get the news, that she was a girl. Sorry Auntie I couldn't help myself. And just for the record Ruben had nothing to do with it, he didn't want to get in the middle :) (He is a smart man already, it didn't take long for him to learn)
Some of the name choices we have right now are......Bailee, Paislie, Preslie, Khloe, Sydnie. We havent talked a whole lot about it yet but those are some of the ones we both like. I really want to give her my middle name too, Brooke. Jadyn didn't get my middle name because I felt it was really cool that she was the 5th generation girl and it would be cool for her and her great great Granny to have the same middle name, Marie. I am happy with our decision, Jadyn really loves her great great Granny :)


This is the new baby girl's ultrasound!

And this is a picture of Jadyn's ultrasound when she was also 21 weeks. I think they look sooo much alike. What do you think?

Update











Ok so I haven't done this blog thing in a long time. It has been over a year and a lot has changed. My beautiful little girl is less then a month away from turning 3!! Wow, I know. She is sooo smart. I was looking back at old blogs when she was a little thing. And I was right about her being soooo smart. She is always saying something to amaze me. I love her with everything I am. Her Dad and I are no longer together. I think it was the best decision for everyone. We still have a really good friendship and that is the most important thing. She gets to see Mommy and Daddy get along and make the best decision for her.

We have a new man in our lives :) Preciado (as Jadyn calls him) Though he in NO WAY tries to take the place of her father, he is an awesome male figure in her life and I could not ask for more. Along with Ruben joining us he has brought an extra special little person with him. Wia (as Jadyn calls her). His daughter Olivia. Wia and Jadyn are only 4 months apart, though if you looked at them you would guess the age difference was a lot more. (Jadyn is a monster and Olivia is tiny) It took the girls a little while to get used to eachother, but they get a long good now (only fighting every once in a while, as sister will).

The girls are as opposite as they could be. Jadyn is a big girl and is very outgoing. She is friendly with everyone she comes into contact with (including the motorcycle riders next to our car on the road). Jadyn could meet someone and be instantly friends. Olivia on the other hand is more reserve. It takes her a while to warm up to you and she would rather play by herself then in a large group of kids. She is a big time Daddy's girl and is very soft spoken. Though both are very different they are unique in there own way.

Ruben and I are also expecting our first child together. The baby is due at the end of January 2010. We have our ultrasound today, 9/14/09, and are very excited to find out what we are having. We have not decided on a name for either a boy or a girl. We will decide when we know the gender. Well...that is all for now. I think I covered a little of the update. Enjoy a couple of pictures.
