We're having a little...

GIRL!!

Can you believe it? I've been SO WRONG this WHOLE time! I received the results from our Harmony Test yesterday afternoon when my doctor called and informed me that our little one is both healthy and lacking a y-chromosome, i.e. female. Yahoo!! Matt and I are thrilled to be welcoming a little girl into the Stowell family. 

We shared the news with our families last night and afterwards, I prepared for our creative gender reveal (thanks, Pinterest!) by visiting, oddly enough, Dollar General and Ace Hardware.

Early this morning, we took these photos and sent them to our friends. Although it was a bit hectic, having to take the photos by ourselves on a timer, it was well worth it! The t-shirt is currently drying and I'm hoping to hang it in the baby's room this weekend. Fun stuff!


It's taking me some time to wrap my head around the idea of a little girl after swearing up and down that I was carrying a boy- but I'm SO excited! Now I just need to work on referring to my growing bump as she and her, instead of he and him. :) Here's a picture from yesterday, at 18 weeks and 1 day. (I wore pink to the gym to reveal the baby's sex to my Zumba ladies!)


Many of you asked, so I will have you know that Matt and I are still playing the name game... but Harper is still at the top of our list! We'll let you know as soon as we decide.

Sugar, spice and everything nice!

XoXo,
Ashley
