It's a............

I went for my first gynae appointment yesterday. Baby is happy and due on June 7 2006! Everything looks fine. I was so relieved about it, because although I'd been feeling so much kicking and squirming, I hadn't really thought about having a baby with everything else that's been going on.

So, should I keep you all in the dark....


You will not believe it......

We are having a.....


GIRL!!!


Yes, I nearly tumbled off the examination table when the doc pointed out the "koekie" as he called it! Hee hee. We are over the moon.... but as my Dad says, Prince Harry was supposed to be a little girl until the very last ultrasound, so we are trying to be nonchalantly ecstatic (impossible for me as you can imagine)!


Grandparents are also in shock, since we might have broken the Hillmann curse of 100 years of boys! Hillmanns are too scared to tell Oma Hillmann (Rein's Gran) for fear she'll drop dead from shock.


I am going to the mall today to buy my first pink outfit! Also going to eye out my car. Will update blog as often as I can.

So much love to you all.
