We are going to have a GIRL!!



Our last Dr. appt on 12/29/08 has been the most exciting appt yet! We had our 2nd sonogram and it was truly breathtaking! The lady pointed out every body part including the gall bladder, stomach, fingers, toes, spine, face, and heart. As she showed all the body parts and measured the baby's weight and height she repeatedly said everything is "perfect", "beautiful", and "great". As a first time mother, this was music to my hears. My biggest prayer has been for the baby to be healthy and she is! Praise God! We heard the heart beat again and it is stronger than the time before.

The next bit of news is what we have been announcing to every person we come in contact with, IT'S A GIRL!! When these words were said by the ultra sound lady, Tim said our daughter's life flash before his eyes. He saw dresses, make-up, training bras, dating, prom, and even jumped to givng her away at her wedding. Crazy I know because she has not even been born yet, but I'm sure most father's can relate to this experience.

When our doctor came in he congratulated both of us and said, "Start saving now because girls are expensive! Accessories, getting their hair done for prom, prom dresses, paying for a wedding, and the list goes on..." It was really funny. :)

All this to say, we are really nervous and excited about our sweet baby girl to arrive!
