SHOCKED…

December 20th, 2010

I don’t really know any other word to use.. I thought this little peanut was a boy.. low heart beat.. sitting different.. made me sick to my stomach for almost 4 months :0  but low and behold.. I carry another woman’s soul inside of me.. and I could not be happier.. and I am not just saying that cause I have no other choice.. me and Dustin have always talked about our love for a family of ladies.. the bonds.. the connections.. the estrogen running around the house.. looking for cell phones.. stealing the wrong jackets.. reading each others diaries.. it will be magic.. 

the ultrasound tech told us right away.. in almost the first two minutes.. 

I’m thinking its a girl..

sorry.. what was that.. you are thinking its a girl..  I just made life plans of my two sweet baby sisters in Disneyland together.. and playing high school volleyball with their long ponytails and blue jerseys kickin everyone’s buts.. (oh yes.. it starts) .. they are now going to be known as the Haffner-Bruce girls.. just like I was identified to being a twin for.. well.. I still am.. we are “the twins” and it is great NOW.. but it took a lot of identity searching to realize how amazing it truly is to share someones DNA with them.. everything but the fingerprints! we always said if one of of murdered someone.. we would wear gloves and blame the other.. lol..  yes.. we actually thought like that..  all this happened in the split second she said girl.. and I stopped a couple minutes after to realize that I was literally beaming from ear to ear.. I don’t even think I was listening to her anymore.. I was giving her lame responses like.. oh yah.. the heart! cool.. because I was already laying down the foundation for the next 18 years.. 

it is going to be magical.. just like this next photo.. it is my favorite ultrasound photo to date.. 

I just feel like it is her “stamp” to me.. slapped on my uterus wall..

look mama.. I am here.. get ready for me.. cause I’m a comin!!

It is all so real now.. the ball is rolling.. and things feel more official.. 

I would like to mention that the woman said this was her belly and her two arms.. I almost shit my pants on the table.. I thought I had birthed a half horse man.. but it is in fact her leg.. not her really low-sitting arm.. 

Life is Beautiful..
