16 weeks!

Tomorrow I will be 16 weeks along! I feel like it has gone by so slow and so fast at the same time! I just keep thinking, in 4 more weeks I will be halfway through my pregnancy already.... but then September sounds sooo far away! I think I will really start feeling like things are flying by once school is over and I won't be focused on other things.
I went to the doctor today and found out that my child really likes to scare it's momma! The doctor came in and it seemed to take her forever to find the heartbeat! I try not to look at the doctor's face because if she is going to tell me bad news, I don't want to see it on her face first. But she did eventually find it, on the complete opposite side that it was on last time and SUPER low down. Once I heard it, I breathed a huge sigh of relief and then said wow it's down there really low and that's when she said "it's probably a boy"...
Now, don't get my wrong. I will absolutely love this baby whether or not it is a boy or a girl. I know there are so many people out there who struggle with having children or can't have children that I am so grateful God has blessed me with being able to have children, but I was hoping for a girl. There has not been a girl born on Nick's dad side of the family for a hundred years or some crazy amount like that so we were really hoping to maybe have the first girl in the family after so long. So hearing her say that it's probably a boy, just made it seem so real. I know we haven't had an ultrasound to prove that it's a boy yet but I'm pretty certain that it is. I have always said that I wanted a boy first because I LOVED having an older brother, so I am very happy that when we do get a girl (because Nick said no matter what we will eventually adopt a girl because he really wants a daughter), our daughter will have an older brother like I did :) It really is awesome having an older brother so I will be very happy if it's a boy too!
4 more weeks until we know for sure though... thankfully I have 4 more weeks until school is out too so hopefully that will make things fly by!
