Boy or girl!?!

Week 16
So such an exciting day yesterday. Saturday night felt like Christmas, Cam and I both had a hard time falling asleep, thinking about the excitement of the day to come. Finding out whether our lil bean was a boy or girl!
Luckily we had church in the morning to keep us occupied and focused on something. Of course I had a melt down when we got the sweetest encouraging text from Corey, Cam's brother. He lives in Ohio and we miss them so much. His text was so sweet then I was reminded how much I miss them and their five adorable kids.
After church and promising some we would tell them immediately we headed down to Newport where we were having the sonogram done. We had time to spare so we decided to browse Target, who doesn't love browsing target. We decided to snap some pictures, boy and girl things we found and made a little collage.
Yeah we had a little too much fun with this.
So we arrived at the place after turning around a couple times because we passed it. We pulled in to a old and ugly strip mall. I started questioning the place. We found out about it from Corey and Tiffany brother and sis-in-law. They went there so we will be fine. We walk in and it is nice inside and the girls were nice and friendly. We go in to this room with two big TV screens and a leather couch. They find they baby and look around for a while. Baby was moving a lot but did not want to show us privates. I started to think maybe we wasted $25. She then had me shake my hips and checked again. Baby finally moved and showed us. She said, " are you ready to find out." We both said yes me a little hesitant. So she said girl, I was in doubt and they moved things around and double checked, pointed the pelvic bone out and confirmed it. They printed lots of pictures and sent us on our way.
I still doubted but Cam confirmed it was right and said he was so happy. He immediately called our friend Maddy who we promised to call and tell. I didn't really want to talk I had yet talked to him
about it.
It started sinking in as the night went on and we enjoyed strolling around Huntington Beach shops looking for something pink. We found some pink sunglasses and decided to go down to the sand to do a cute picture in the sand.

We then enjoyed dinner and went home. Such a fun and exciting day.
It feels even more real and now we can start calling her by name.
Daddy and I are so in love with her already.
