It's a ...

...Girl! We were thrilled to find out today that we will be adding a girl to our family. And even more joyed that she appears to be healthy and beautiful (at least, that is what the technician kept saying.) Derrick and the boys came with me to the doctor this morning to watch. Scott thought the ultrasound was pretty cool, but Andrew didn't really know what was happening. He just sat with a zoned out look, exactly like watching a movie.
Here are some pictures.



You may not be able to see this picture very well. She was "hiding" behind the placenta (which is on the left.) Her face is just behind it, with her nose just next to the butterfly looking thing. The blob on the bottom right is her knee. Her face is upright, with her mouth slightly open at the bottom.

Oh YAY!! I checked your blog first thing this morning to find out.... girls are still sitting at the breakfast table :)

Now, it's time to start working on a name (it always takes us until the week before the due date to settle on something).

Whoo-hoo! Isn't it comforting to know that God knows exactly what one's family needs (as far as sex of a baby)? Even though you "haven't done" a girl, he'll equip you and has great plans for everyone in their family roles.

Looking forward to Friday morning.
