Mady's POV
I wake up this morning feeling more anxious than ever. I look over at Kian sound asleep in our bed and wonder if he is just as nervous as I am. I sit up and turn so that my legs dangle off of our bed.
  I stand up and put on my slippers and walk to the bathroom. I start the shower and let it warm up. I take my hair out of a ponytail and brush it out. Its getting really long, I think I want to cut it.
  I slip my clothes off and step in to the shower. The warm water runs over my body, immediately calming me. I take my time washing my hair and body. When I'm done I dry off and slip on my undergarments. I wrap my robe around my body.
  Walking out of the bathroom I head over to the closet and grab the outfit Kara bought for today.
I put on the white lace dress and the the blue and pink floral kimono. I paired a pair of white wedges with the outfit. In the bathroom I blow dried my hair and curled it into beach waves.
I applied a bit of mascara and walked out of the bedroom. When I walked out Kian was up and at the closet, grabbing his outfit.  I walk over to him and wrap my arms around him. He repeats my actions and sways us back and forth.
  I stand on my tiptoes and peck his lips, then head downstairs and start gathering everything that Kara needs Kian and I to bring to the gender reveal. It's just some clips of which gender you chose, and other decorations like that.
  I don't know why she has so much of everything. All that's gonna be there is Kian's family and their families, my mom and brothers and Kara's little family.
  I still gather everything and pour myself some orange juice. Kian comes down after about 10 minutes.  Apparently we slept in later because it's already 11:00 and Kian and I have to be at the Air BnB at 11:30.
  We make sure everything is in the car and make sure we have everything we need. Kian grabs his camera, and anything he might need for it. I grab my purse and my phone, making sure I have everything I might need.
  We head out to the car and take our time because the Air BnB is only about 5 minutes away. We run to a gas station close by to grab drinks and then head to Kara's at about 11:20. We arrive at 11:30 and Kara is out there to greet us.
   She leads us around the back where I see the whole yard decorated with gender reveal decorations and in the middle of it all is a big box, and two tables on the other side of it. I must have looked surprised cause Kara was giggling and hugging me, obviously proud of herself. I look over at her and feel myself start to tear up just at the thought that she did this all for me. She hugs me and leads me over to the box. She calls over Kian's parents and my mom and brothers.
  "Mady, did you bring those clips"
  "Yes, you actually need them?" I add giggling.
  "Yes ma'am"
She runs out the car and grabs the clips, when she comes back we all put on the clip of our choice. I clip on a boy tag and Kian chooses a girl tag. I would love to have a little girl, but I just have a feeling this is a boy, I can feel it in my gut, no pun intended.

"Okay in 3...2...1!"
  The next things happen in slow motion. Kian and I pull the strings in the poppers, my mom and brothers pop their balloons and Kian's parents cut the cake.
  All of the sudden everything around me is pink and Kian is smiling like an idiot. I am in so much shock that it takes me a minute to figure out what all the pink means.
  "OH MY GID BABY WE ARE HAVING A GIRL!" I scream when it all finally clicks.
"I know!"
  He pulls me in for a hug and squeezes tight. We pull back from each other and we both look down at my stomach. I lay my hand in my stomach and get a fuzzy feeling all through me. I'm having a girl, a little baby girl.
  I finally snap back to reality and walk over to my family and hug them.
  My mom brings her hand up and tucks a piece of hair behind my ear and rests her hand in my cheek.
  "Oh, my little girl is having a little girl" , she starts to tear up and I follow in her steps, my own eyes welling up with tears.
  I walk over to Kara and she pulls me in for a big hug and holds the hug for a minute.
  "Okay so Mady we have one more surprise."
  She calls Kian over and blindfolds is both. They lead us inside and stand us at a certain angle. I grab Kian's hand, nervous for some reason. The blindfolds come off and I squeal. Bobby, JC, Fran and Corey are all sitting on the couch. Franny stands up and walks over to us congratulating us.
  "Fran, did you get to watch the actual reveal?"
  "Yes, Kara has us kinda hide at the sliding door. She knew you wouldn't notice and it was beautiful. You're reaction was so delayed, you could just see the confusion on your face, like for a second you forgot what you were doing, but when it all hit you it was priceless. Your whole face lit up with joy."

 We all hung out at Kara's until about 4:30, then Kian and I decided we wanted to go to dinner and celebrate, just us two

  Kian opens the car door for me and walks around the car. All the sudden I catch a glimpse at my finger and see my ring. I'm not saying I forgot because I could never, but I've not really had time to acknowledge the fact that Kian is my Fiancé. When he sits down in his seat I lean over and kiss him.
  When we separate he looks at me, "What was that for baby?"
"I just realized I haven't really taken in the fact that we are engaged, everything happened so fast after that, I got distracted. It's like everything is hitting me today. I'm pregnant with a little girl, I am set to marry the love of my life, and to make it all even better, my baby's father is the love of my life."
  Kian gives me the sweetest, most appreciative smile and kisses my cheek. I feel myself blush.
  It's nice to know that even after all these years and everything we have gone through, he still has the power to make me blush like a 13 year old girl.
