Unexpected Baby News :)

Earlier today we decided to have my monthly checkup a week earlier since we're leaving for Manila on Wednesday. As of today, I'm only 16 weeks pregnant so I never really expected the doctor to be able to tell the sex this early on. So when she said, "I can already see the baby's sex!" I knew right away what it was because only one gender can be detected with certainty before 20 weeks of pregnancy.




Pooof! and there went my fantasies of shopping cutesy adorable little girly dresses in pink and purple. Gotta dig up Kaden's baby clothes soon.

I should have taken a picture of Art's reaction when he found out. He wants a baby boy sooo bad, so he, Kaden, and the baby could share their "toys".

He looked so excited while I was in a daze. I had my heart set on a baby girl, and so does Kaden (he sounds so cute saying "baby sister" so excitedly). When Art asked me if I was happy, I had to be honest and said "Well, I'm really happy for you but I'm kinda disappointed for me." He just laughed at me.

Now, I'm also getting excited about our coming baby boy. I pray he comes out healthy, that's all that's important. I'm slowly telling Kaden that he's getting a baby brother instead of a baby sister, but he got confused and is now expected both a baby sister and a baby brother. He holds up his fingers and says, "TWO babies, mommy."

Uh-oh.

Congrats to you, Art & Kaden---as long as the baby's healthy, that's all that matters! I'll never know what it's like to "doll-up" a little girl, I'll always wonder what it's like to have a daughter...but you can always try again & aim for a girl next time;o)

You mean Kaden is "ordering" a baby sister---hehe, he makes it sound so easy!;o). Well, I'm sure that after another baby boy, everyone will also want a baby girl na. So hindi ka na nag-iisa by then. In the meantime, there's still this pregnancy to go through, kaya take care always, OK? I guess you're in Manila to see Art off. Pls wish Art bon voyage & kiss Kaden for us.

Our love to all...
