Sweet Baby Rozsa...

So, it's been a while since we've visited the land of blogging. We haven't been quiet for any particular reason other than busy schedules now that classes have started. Viktor is taking four classes this semester and I (Kristen) am taking one along with him. We are enjoying glimpses of spring in Wilmore and look forward to more warm days in the near future. We're looking forward to some visitors in a couple weeks and then a trip home to Bloomington soon after. It's hard to believe how fast time is flying!

This week marks the half way point in our pregnancy! Today was a day we've been looking forward to for a long time...the big ULTRASOUND! We are happy to announce that we are expecting a GIRL! We have a good report from the doctor, as well. All of the measurements and workings of our little one look great and we're right on for our due date of July 27 (though, I'm doubtful we'll hit it right on)! It's still hard to believe that this little life is growing inside of me! I can definitely feel her squirming around throughout the day (which she proudly displayed during the ultrasound as well), and cannot wait for the day Viktor can begin to feel the kicks on the outside!

On a side note...here is a little story that goes along with finding out the gender of our baby. All along we have thought it was a boy. No particular reason, just for some reason we thought it was a boy. So, we were for sure the tech would say "it's a boy" today, but those were not the words out of her mouth. Though we are thrilled either way, it was like we had to switch our brains to girl mode! Well, I wasn't quite sure what was going through Viktor's mind during the visit, as he seemed extra quiet. I was sure it was a combination of his 2 hours of sleep the night before and processing all that was going on with the appointment. As we stepped out of the doctor's office, these were his words, "I can still take my daughter fishing." (in a somewhat questioning, reassuring tone). How CUTE! It was as if he were making sure that he could still do these bonding things he always dreamed of doing with his child. I reassured him that he could take her fishing or play soccer with her, among many other things. I just love him and know that he is going to be a GREAT dad!

I wanted to share a quick picture of our first glimpse of baby Rozsa...waving to us! What a precious site and exciting day! Thank you for sharing in our excitement!
