While we were getting ready to head for brunch for mother's day, little bug was eerily quiet in her room. I walked in and she was laying on the floor quietly coloring. I sat down with her and she said she needed to paint my toenails. So I got pampered for about a 1/2 hour while she pretend painted my fingernails, toenails, put pretend lotion on my legs and gave me a little massage. I had no idea little bug knew how to run a spa.
We then went to a nice brunch place just around the corner from our house. They have an amazing spread, including an entire dessert bar. We thought little bug would be just beside herself with the dessert bar - but surprisingly she wasn't really into it. She ate her fair share of fruit and steak, and a little bit of dessert. Then when we got into the car she asked, "Now can I have my blue Popsicle?"
I had forgotten that she wanted a Popsicle before we left the house and we told her that she could have one after brunch. Maybe some day they'll create a brunch just for little bug with marshmallows, cheese, fruit, steak AND Popsicles.

The Ultra Ultrasound
We went on Saturday morning to do a 4D ultrasound to see if we were having a boy or girl. We didn't want to wait another month for my doctor's office to do it and thought it would be a better idea to go to the high resolution place rather than the "it's a boy" proclamation the doctor's office made of little bug, to only find out six weeks later that "it's a girl".
We didn't know how buggy would react to seeing the ultrasound, to be honest they still freak me out. But we went to a place where they project the ultrasound on a big screen so there was going to be no way to hide it from her. She got really concerned for me at first when I laid down, so she stood next to me and held my hand. Then the actual ultrasound started and we told her that it was the baby. Little bug said, "Oh yeah, that's my brothersister movie."
She was hooked, she ran onto the floor to get a better look at the 'movie' and kept yelling, there's her nose, there are her arms, etc. Surprisingly she got most of them right. When the technician zoomed in to get a shot of our new little bundle's private area at first the baby would only put her back to the camera, so you could just see her little bum, then she actually covered up her private area with her hands. Finally they got a clear shot and proclaimed that they were 95% sure that it is a girl.
Little bug yelled, that's my sister. She waved at the screen and just then the baby waved her little arm too. Little bug turned to us and said, "my sister waved at me." It was a pretty special moment.
