Today was the day, after 18 weeks of carrying around a new fruit every week, from blueberry to mango to cantalope, we can now give thanks for our baby girl. The appointment today could only be described as breathtaking. The doctor that did the sonogram was fantastic, she went over all of the baby's measurements and anatomy and everything was right on track. The heart looked perfect, the spinal cord in line, the little kidneys were functioning and no cleft palate to be seen. Of course, our daughter is a lady, so it took a while to coerce her to spread her legs so that we could get the money shot :) It is amazing, I was so sure it was a boy, so much for mother's intuition. My mom was with us and there were a lot of tears and hugs. It was a truly magical moment of course was followed with the only natural thing... shopping. 5 more months left....

Too Long

Ok, so I am not the greatest at keeping the blog up to date, but I promise I will try. Since my last blog, a lot has happened. Christmas was a whirl wind with traveling all over the state to visit with the family, but it was great to see everyone. I went from no belly bump, to a mountain over night :) I had my 15th week appointment and was measuring a little further along, so that moved my sonogram up to the 21st of this month. I can't believe that in a little less than a week we will know if it is a boy and a girl, and if the small possibility of twins is true. I know it is crazy, but since I am measuring further along it is a possibility. We are in the middle of fixing up the house ans are staying busy. I am ready to start on the nursery and will be able to, after we clean out the room. Well, that is the last month in a nutshell and look forward to the results of the sonogram on Wednesday!
