IT'S A........

So yesterday (Good Friday) was very emotional and very long. I have literally been waiting for this day since the day I found out I was pregnant. Well Jared's mom and my mom came over early morning so we could all head to Durango. It was important for us to have the both of them there and they were happy to tag along for the ultrasound.

Before I continue further with my story I want to add that I never told anyone but my husband and a close friend of mine that my motherly instinct believed that I was carrying a girl. I didn't want to tell too many people that because if I was wrong I just didn't want my motherly instinct to be off.

Well we got to the Dr. 10 minutes before our appointment and they immediately took us back and I was shaking. The reason for this is because I wanted the baby to be healthy. We all got in the dark room and my nerves were boiling. The US technician immediately asked me if we wanted to know what we were having and I said "absolutely." So she went on to measure heart rate, which was 151 (she said sounds like a girl), I thought don't get your hopes up Crystal. About 3 more minutes into it she asked if we were ready to know and I looked at my family and looked back and said "YES". She pointed the US to the good parts on the baby and you could see it CLEAR AS DAY. GIRL!!!! We all began to gasp and cry and I was very happy to share that moment with my mom, she gave me the biggest hug that I will never forget. I just want to jump out of my skin so bad right now, we are so happy and she is perfect and beautiful. She weighs 12 oz. and seems to look like Kade. I can't wait to kiss her beautiful little lips. And all my prays paid off with her being healthy. Thank you God.

I believe my daddy had everything to do with it. I miss you dad so much and wish so badly I could call you to tell you the amazing news, but I know he already knows and he will be with my kids always. He was the greatest father, and I miss him more than anyone could imagine. That is why her name will be TAYLOR after my beautiful father Wil Taylor (also my maiden name). Thank you baby (Jared) for letting me name her this. I love you so much and we did it again. Another beautiful baby!!!! And yes it was a GOOD FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
