Looks like we are having a girl:))

Today I went to the free college to try and find out the sex before Justin left for the field, because its obvious theres no way he was getting out of the field for a doctors appointment --even though they were kind of acting like they were gonna let him LOL. We decided not to take the chance of him missing it, and since the college is free we figured the worse case would be we went in and couldn't find the sex so it was worth a shot. I AM SOO GLAD we did because they were able to say that it LOOKS like a girl. They said they couldn't be positive because it is still early so the balls may not have appeared yet, but it looked just like a vagina haha. So for right now we are saying its a girl. My ultrasound at my doctors office is next Thursday so Im very interested to see what he says:) It was really amazing getting to do that with Justin, he was so funny. Im like I told you theres a real baby in there haha. The lady I had was really nice too. I said that the babies arms and legs seemed soo long, and shes like ohh yeah they are LOL. She tried really hard to get a good picture to print of her face, but she kept hiding. Then they allow you to bring in a blank DVD and they will record the ultrasound for you, so that was pretty awesome:) I figured if I go to the doctor on Thursday and he says its a boy, Im going to go back to the college the following week just to confirm haha.  But at this point I kind of just hope shes really a girl because I dont want to play the back and forth game and really have no clue what she is LOL.

We decided to name her Alyssa Marie:) We picked the name out when we were pregnant with out first and Justin still loves it...he wouldn't even talk girl names at ALL because hes dead set on Alyssa. I love the name too, but felt maybe there was another name out there. Now that Im told its a girl, Alyssa just seems to fitting and perfect:) My moms middle name is Marie so I love that,  also one of Justins sisters names is Marie too:) Ive always thought Alyssa was beautiful:) It seems so unreal that we are having a baby, now its even more unreal that I get to call her a SHE lol. I feel so blessed:) Besides...if she turns into a he its going to be interesting because we can't think of a boy name to save our lives. or agree I should say, he wants DANTE. Which I dont like at all lol. And I want Jeremy, which he doesn't want! soo hmm hahaha.

Justin leaves for the field monday, lame. LOL. So Im sure I will be spending lots of time with my friends! He will be in the field till the end of Nov..but home some weekends so it won't be too bad. Besides when he comes home thats like half a month and we will both be in MICHIGAN!!! Im soo excited..I can't even wait:) I miss my family and friends sooo much, I just can't wait to see everyone. Im also having my baby shower which is amazing too. Its so great how much is changing in my life...I seriously don't think I could be happier. Justin also gets sent to the promotion board in DEC....or so they are saying (haha I always add that in because the army is always changing things). He won't get his SGT or anything in DEC but once he gets points he will get it, which is awesome. Assuming he goes, and passes and all that good stuff. Im sooo proud of him, I seriously don't think he understands HOW proud I really am of him!

Well Justin just came and said he wants to watch Law & Order so Ill write more later:)
