If you know me, then you know I’ve been waiting for this moment my entire life. Tea parties, daddy-daughter dances, recitals, afropuffs, and more. I am READY! I can't believe I'm finally about to get my baby girl! 😩🙌🏾💕 #GirlDad
Well I tell yall I've been waiting for a baby girl my ENTIRE life, I'm not joking lol. Look what my mom wrote in my baby book back in '98
My parents ended up havin two more boys and I'm the oldest. So it was just a house full of men and my mom lol. They wanted a daughter too (put a pin in that) but called it quits after my youngest brother. So MY dreams of having a littler sister, translated into having a daughter
And I've been tweeting about it ever since
I've been at this for a while 😂
So when @jaylabrenae got pregnant back in 2018 I'm like YES! Here comes my girl. Im hype! 😁
But God had other plans 😅😂
And dawg I was sick 😭 i was dressed in pink and everything!
After a few hours, I got over it and started to become super hype for my boy and now I wouldn't trade him for the world 😁 my lil homie Braylon! 🙌🏾
Now fast forward to the end of October 2019, things got a lil steamy in the Henry household once we sent Braylon off to his grandparents for a night 😏...
A missed birth control pill and a some weeks later, surprisseeeee 👋🏾😅
So boom. Back to square one again, my dreams of my lil baby girl comes back into play and I'm PRAYINGGG it happens this time. Because if I get my girl I can send my jersey to the rafters and RETIRE 😂🙅🏾‍♂️✂️
Jayla is SUPER confident for weeks it's another boy. I'm on the fence because I'm trying not to get my hopes up again. But EVERYONE one both side of the family thinks its a girl. My dad and grandma are so confident it's a girl they made a $100 and $50 bet with Jayla.
Some weeks past and we go to the gender ultrasound appointment... My heart pounding. Hands sweaty. Couldn't sleep the night before. So the doctor is moving around the baby showing us the hands, feet, head, armpits, and I'm just sitting there looking at the screen like COME ON!
She finallyyyy moves down and goes you ready? And types

G-I-R-L

Me:
I'm hype. Jayla is hype. We ALL hype. We doing backflips back to the car. Just HYPPEE. So we figure out a plan to tell my parents the news. Now (pick the pin up) remember my parents have been wanting a girl BAD. So, of course, we had to record the moment they found out...
To tell my parents the gender, I acted like I was upset about something in order to get their attention... and the rest went exactly how I envisioned it 😂
So yeah, we're all excited and looking forward to this new chapter in our lives!
We appreciate all the congrats and well wishes! 🙌🏾🙏🏾
