24 Weeks!!!






I have been so awful at keeping up at this. Life just got the best of me, but I'M BACK! With so much information to share, so I hope you all have been at the end of your seats for freakin 2 months! Drum roll please for the GENDER REVEAL: IT'S A GIRL. I am having a baby girl that will be my best friend and I literally cannot wait. I am so excited. I wanted to an individual post of the gender reveal but I figured ya'll don't really care too much haha so I'll just combine it with my 24th week survey. I found maybe a week or two earlier then your average 20 week ultrasound/gender reveal. This was so that my mom could attend and after some dramatic events she was able to make it and it worked out great. My anxiety was so high laying on that table and having the warm gel placed on my tiny bump. I felt that it was a boy and I don't know how to raise a boy and I knew there most likely would not be a male figure in his life so I got super nervous, but then the ultrasound tech winked at me because I told her to wink if it's not a boy. There was my answer. I was having a girl. I smiled. Still nervous. but even more excited to have the ultimate mini Blakey. Her name will be Kaia Staige Owens. I'm still thinking about hyphenating the father's last name before my last name, but I'm not sure yet. I still have some decisions to make and there is no rush. I am beginning to start her room and it's kinda crazy. My little collection is growing. I will be getting the crib I want this weekend (black friday WASSUP) her stroller next month, I purchased her car seat this week. It's starting to come together. I feel so good getting what I need for her. I know it will be hard and all my money is disappearing before I even make it, but it's so worth it. It's for the best little person I will ever know and I just can't wait to meet my little angel.
