I feel bad for my dad. He can't really talk about it and he is itching to I am sure. He can't tell anyone in his family because his family is her family too lol. I am sure he has told co-workers and friends but he has to be even more careful than I do. But it was his idea so I know he won't blow it. Just over a week left now then no more secrets. I can't wait!!!Quote:

Keeping it a secret is hard...not even just for the fun part but I just hate keeping things in..it disrupts my energy. Lol
It's hard to keep track... have you told everyone yet? How did you (or will you)?Quote:

Then my Dad came up with the idea to surprise her when we go down for the family reunion. It's sooooo hard not to tell her and I feel like I've been lying to her but I just keep reminding myself that I want to SEE her face when she finds out. We are going to record it! I can't wait! Now that we are in countdown territory the anticipation of the surprise is helping with my anxieties too so that was a big unexpected blessing. I made her 2 shirts to spring the surprise. I had to tell her that the boys wanted to get her a shirt to get her size and everything so I made this one which she will see first in the gift bag(she loves tweety):

I love them two! They are fantastic! Well done hey. Hard job to keep a surprise like that, but how exciting! I'm excited for your family. It will be a massive day!
Two girls and one boy, due October 16
Thanks. I'm no artist but give me the picture/clipart and I can do a fair bit with it :)Quote:

And we are going to announce on FB too so FINALLY there will be no more secret lol.
I told everyone around 13 weeks..we surprised family at Easter by having an egg hunt that contained bits of a puzzle in each egg. WHen the put it together it was a photo of our eldest trying to photocopy our youngest and when we told them to go see what printed out, it was the ultrasound photo. It was my husband's brilliant idea. Lol. On FB we posted a photo of our eldest teaching the youngest the "balance of power" with all kinds of funny analogies on the chalkboard. We had a lot of fun announcing this time which is good since it's the last baby:-)Quote:

All of our friends have boys we are the only ones with girls. I wish now I would have never found out the gender so I could not have to be upset. I'm greatful and very blessed I just don't understand. I swayed did everything I could do for a boy. I know everything happens for a reason just have to accept it and don't question it but it's so hard. Thank you all for listening to me be selfish and vent. This was my pic today I feel it was poor quality for the money I paid. Attachment 31112
Hugs for you, I know this probably won't help but I would be so thrilled to have four little girls to cherish, am sure once she arrives you will be so in love but sorry you didn't hear boy st the scan today xx
