IT'S A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE GIRL!!!!

My boy and I are thrilled to finally know that a little baby girl will be joining our family sometime around the middle of October! I have to admit, that I really thought it was going to be a boy. Maybe because I was preparing myself for the opposite of what I wanted. (No offense to any other oldest boys..I am sure I would have been thrilled if I was having a baby boy.) I 've been told by many people that there is nothing like a having a baby boy. However deep down I wanted a little girl so bad! I am so excited about the pink, ruffles, ribbons, silk, and dolls. Oh I can't believe that I am going to have my own little doll in 5 1/2 months!! Anyway they measured all of her limbs and her brain and head and everything measured perfectly! We also got to hear her little heartbeat! We have already picked out her name...I guess it could change but for now our top name is Olivia Alexandra!
Well...even though that is the most exciting news of the day, that wasn't the real reason why we had an ultrasound. Usually I wouldn't have been able to find out until about 20 weeks and I am only 16, but, because of my hemorrhage I have had to have a few extra ultrasounds. So yesterday we found out that the hemorrhage is getting smaller...not a lot smaller..but smaller. The hemorrhage was still pretty big so I will continue to be on pelvic bedrest. Luckily it is not affecting our little girl so that's good news and at least it's improving even if it's just a little bit! We appreciate all the prayers in our behalf. It's still really scary for us, but we know everything will be fine!

I really can't handle how beautiful she is! I love how her little hand is up by her face. It kind of looks like she is sucking her thumb!
If you look really closely at this one you will see that her little legs are sticking straight up in the air! You can see her little bum too! We can already tell that she has a little bit of her dad in her:)
I think that knowing that the it inside of me is a tiny baby girl has made our love grow for this little one. It is neat to watch Michael become more and more attached to her. We love her so much and can hardly wait to meet her!
