you were beyond excited to find out the gender of your baby at the shower.

you had carried the little baby for a few months now and you and nikolaj were ecstatic to find out.

of course, both of you had your preferences deep down, but most of all you wanted a healthy and happy baby.

you were having your baby shower today.

"are you ready?" your husband nikolaj asked you gently at the beginning of the baby shower.

"we still have a while until we get to figure out, but yes i am very excited." you giggled and kissed nik's head.

you and everyone at the baby shower played some themed games and talked amongst one another before it was time for the most awaited moment.

it was time to find out the gender of the baby.

lots of the shower guests were wearing either pink or blue as a guess of what they thought the baby was going to be, but both you and nikolaj were in neutral colors.

you had gotten a puck that nikolaj was going to shoot and it would explode into either pink or blue.

one of the guests handed nikolaj his stick and you tapped your feet excitedly.

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

it was as if everything went in slow motion as nikolaj hit the puck and it exploded into a beautiful color.

"WE ARE HAVING A GIRL MY LOVE" nikolaj yelled happily and immediately swept you into his arms.

you giggled happily and kissed his lips.

you were so excited for what the future was going to bring you and nikolaj even more now.

"yeah we are. we are having a little girl." you began to tear up at nikolaj's happy expression.

"this is the best day of my life so far." nikolaj smiled and hugged you even tighter.

after conversing a little more after the gender reveal, everyone filed their way out of the ehlers' household. it was just you and nikolaj.

you went and laid in bed with nik considering it was pretty late.

"this day was amazing." nikolaj smiled at you.

you put your head on his chest and nodded, "it was absolutely perfect."

"i can't wait to see our little girl hayley. i hope she looks just like her mama." nik said with a bright grin on his face.

"i hope she isn't sassy like dada." you chuckled and tapped your bump, "do you hear me little one?"

nikolaj gasped dramatically, "i am not sassy. having a little attitude is good for everyone." he complained.

you laughed even harder.

nikolaj then paused and you looked at him worriedly.

"what? nikolaj, what's wrong darling?" you asked him quickly.

"oh my god hayley, we need to start coming up with names. we have no names to pick from." nik ranted.

the baby was still months away and nikolaj had probably panicked about everything in the book, but you knew that he was going to be the best dad in the entire world. you could count on it.
