Pregnant after IF

meeting our little girl in 10 days!

The c-section is scheduled for March 1st, so we will be meeting her in 10 days or less. 

And we also have it narrowed down to 2 names. 

Evelyn McKinley

or

Cassandra Kennedy

DH loves history and esp Presidental history, so that is where the middle names come from.  He keeps pointing at my belly today and saying come out now because he wants her to be born on Presidents Day.  Don't think that is going to happen though.

We would call her either Evie or Cassie.  I'm not sure how we are going to pick between the two because I really like both now, but I guess we will decide somehow. 

Eeek! Such a range of emotions running around my head right now.
