GIRL!!
On Monday, we had our 20 weeks ultrasound appointment. (Well, it was my 18 weeks 6 days appointment.) When we entered the room, I told the technician that we did not want to be told the gender at our appointment. She told me she would write it down for us and seal it in an envelope. The second that the ultrasound started, I got teary eyed. It was so amazing to see all the little parts of our baby. Blake was there with me and so was my mom. I loved having them there in the room with me. It was such a neat experience. The technician was trying to figure out the gender of our baby, but our baby was being stubborn. The cord was wrapped between the legs, and this baby wouldn't move enough to get the cord out, so that the technician could see. So, we decided it would be a good idea for me to get up and walk up and down the halls and do a few jumping jacks. Well, I did just that because I wanted to know the gender of this baby. I came back into the room, and the technician said she was 90% sure of the gender, and by the end if she wasn't 100% sure then they would have me come back for a follow up a different day. But, we left with an envelope in hand. Everything looks good with our sweet baby. The doctor said that the heartbeat is at about 160 and that everything is beautiful. I love hearing our doctor say that! We got back for another appointment in 3 weeks. I love going to my appointments and hearing our baby's heartbeat. Its just amazing!
We are beyond excited to welcome this sweet baby girl into our family at the beginning of February. We feel so blessed! This little girl is already so loved by many.
