I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas. This year we got to spend Christmas together, after JD being in Afghanistan last Christmas, and it was very nice. We woke up a little early. Okay, so it was 7:00am, not THAT early! ha ha We opened up presents and ate breakfast. JD bought these awesome red long john pajamas with "Mommy" and "Daddy" on them and then one for the baby. It had the name of our baby on it. We were really planning on having the baby before Christmas (God had other plans) so this was going to be the baby's Christmas Day outfit. Well, because the baby still isn't here, JD wanted to share the sex of the baby with me while it was just the two of us - rather than in the hospital during delivery. He gave me the option of opening the box and I just sat there and stared at it for about an hour. Then I thought that I had made up my mind and wanted to know, so I opened the box. I took the onesie out and laid it down ... the name is on the backside. So, there the onesie sat for another hour-and-a-half.
I was worried that people would think I was weak and couldn't wait until the baby was born, but that wasn't it at all. JD really wanted to share that moment with me and only me. So, I did it. I turned it over.
And guess what? My premonition was right. We're having a baby girl!!!! Her name will be Lorelai Sinclair Huse. Lorelai is pronounced Lor-uh-lie. If you don't like the name, please don't tell me. I'm hormonal and emotional and I'll probably cry. Hee hee
So, obviously bidding has ended for the baby pool. All that is left is to have Lorelai and then we'll see who got closest with the other info.
After the morning's excitement, we spent the day lying around pretty much doing nothing until about 3:30pm when we went to see our Christmas Day movie with Leeza. We saw The Holiday with Cameron Diaz and Kate Winslet. It was a "chick flick," but actually really decent. JD enjoyed it as well. It had an interesting plot. I liked it a lot. We then went over to Leeza's mom's house and hung out to watch Deal or No Deal and drink hot chocolate. Then we called it a night. Still no baby....she's just hanging out in there.... It feels weird to say "she." I'm still calling her "it."
I hope everyone else had a terrific Christmas with family and friends. We love you all!!

I am so excited to meet miss Lorelai! And since you and JD have graciously allowed Eric and I to use the name Lorelai as well ( in like 5 years) you know that we are the boggest fans of the name. Hey you only have to hold her in until the 28th at 3am and then I win! Cant wait to see you.

I LOVE the name! Yeah it's a girl! Woo Hoo!
I knew it was a girl, I knew it was a girl!! Can you hear me singing that? LOL. I am in love with the name!!!
What? It's a girl? The Huse Sons' curse of all girls continues... well, at least for the english speaking children, right JD?
Just kidding - very excited for the three of you and I'll see you guys in January.
Well you know I love the name and I predict that you will have her on my birthday...New Year's Eve! Then you really will have a little princess! lol!! :-)
anytime now lorelai, we are all getting pretty impatient!!!! :)
We need one last belly pic Rachel!!!
I am so excited that you're having a baby girl. I am going to spoil her rotten. She'll be able to get away with so much when she stays with Aunt Kelly, Uncle Rob and Boomba. I promise I won't let Boomba feed her marshmellows! And, I guess the race is on for me to have a baby boy so we can marry these two powerful families...LOL!!!
