It's official!!! Tyler & I are expecting a sweet baby girl!!!
Her name is Lucy Kay Brox. I've always loved the name Lucy. It is a classic vintage name (much like my name). And Kay is my mom's middle name. It just seemed like the perfect name for our sweet little peanut.
Turns out old wives tales aren't all right. My cravings have been super spicy foods, steak, french fries, and brownies. YUM! But to be perfectly honest what normal person doesn't crave those foods on a regular basis!! Also I didn't have morning sickness too bad. I was nauseous mostly at night and dry heaved a few times but I never actually threw up. Because of that EVERYONE except like 5 people were sure I was having a boy.
When I first got pregnant I thought for sure it was a girl, but then I thought well maybe that's just what I want. So then I started to convince myself it is a boy! So when we went to our first ultrasound Baby Brox decided she was going to be sleeping, with her legs closed, and in a position where it was impossible to see ANYTHING.
She was sleeping with her legs in indian style crossed and hunched over with her head resting on the placenta. Which instantly made me laugh because I sleep EXACTLY like that. I knew then she must have been a girl because she was being shy (like her mom). But Tyler and I decided to take our gender reveal pictures anyway. My friend Amy took them for us and they turned out SUPER cute. We took one with each color balloon so that way we could use whichever color applied.
Luckily we got to go back the next day. I drank a nice cold and sugary smoothie and it woke her right up! She was hanging out upside down and then flipped all around. It was very cute.
As soon as the ultra sound tech told it was a girl I cried, and so did Tyler. Even though nothing had changed our sweet baby finally had a name and a gender, we could starting calling her by her name instead of baby Brox. She is the most beautiful little person I've ever seen and I am just so in love with her.
We are thrilled to continue the journey of pregnancy and reach the next mile stones (kicking!!!).
