Baby Stone is a Girl!!!

I know that I am almost a week late with the posting, but everything went great at our doctor appointment on June 21st! Baby Stone is a girl, and she is a beautiful, healthy growing little baby! We are going to name her, Quinn O'Neil. 

To the left is a picture of our cake from our Gender Reveal party with our friends. Aren't the sweet little pink booties adorable?  The lady at the grocery store was so cute and excited about decorating the cake!

We also got a few great sonogram pictures during our visit.



The first picture is the best profile picture we were able to get. She was being a little camera shy at first;) The second is just a funny one where she has her legs up by her head.  As you can tell from her position, we have no doubt that she is a she..lol. For some reason, it just seems wrong for me to post the sono picture verifying..haha.
Typically, we got so excited at our Gender Reveal party that we didn't take that many pictures, but our friend, Alisha, did get a video of the big reveal! John made his famous brownies with vanilla icing in the center. He put pink food coloring with the vanilla.

We have the sweetest friends for coming out to celebrate our little girl! The party was a blast. John and I ended the night with putting our dvd from the appointment on the tv to see all the pictures from our appointment. It was just the two of us relaxing on the couch. We talked about what features from each other we hope she gets, and we let everything from the day actually soak in:) It is amazing how just knowing the gender of the baby makes you feel so much closer to the baby. It's so nice to feel her kick now, and I just smile and say, "well, hi there Quinn."
Here are at least two pictures from that night. The first is with our good friends, Amber and Erin. The first of many belly touching pictures I'm sure;)
 
I have learned that fluffy shirts like that may add a little to the belly. So we also took a picture with the same shirt I was wearing in the first post for comparison. I have really learned that I'm loving the tighter shirts! They are just more flattering than the shirts that don't touch you anywhere.

We couldn't help ourselves after the appointment. We had to stop by the baby store, and we found Quinn's bedding for the nursery. A special thank you goes out to Quinn's grandparents-to-be,  Mr. Johnny and Mrs. Cathy, for the bedding!! It's perfect. Here is a picture of the bedding from the store. John tackled the border this weekend, and it is gone! We are now painting, and pictures will follow once it's completed:)

We are painting and getting ready for our big family reunion over the 4th!! Cannot wait to see everyone!
