We had our ultrasound today! And it's certain...it's a GIRL!!! It was so neat to have the ultrasound specialist come to our house and hook his equipment up to our TV so we could watch everything! He explained everything along the way. And even gave us a DVD at the end of our ultrasound!
Our baby girl measured exactly at 18 weeks (and I'm 18 weeks today). She's 9oz. And she's measuring to her exact due date...July 24th! Her spine...her jawbones...her heart...her stomach...her brain...her bladder...everything looked perfect! Yea! (No signs of spina bifida, cleft palate, holes in the heart, etc., etc.) She has long skinny legs and big feet! Ha-ha! She moves a lot, but I still can't feel it (or don't know I am). Her body is functioning the way it should be...i.e. heart beat, umbilical cord, fluids moving through her like they should, etc. It is such a big relief to know that our baby is healthy!
The first thing that came to Curtis' mind when we found out it is a girl was that she's not going to be dating! And, now he's going to have two of me around (he's going to have his hands full!).
And all I could think was, this tomboy is going to have to learn to like "girly!"
We are so excited! And anxiously await getting to meet our new little girl and welcoming her into our lives and loving her!
