The Verdict

Baby girl's head.  Her left hand is up by the side of her head.

I'll have to scan photos as soon as I realize how to do that away from my computer at home, but we had our ultrasound today.  I was anxious to find out and when I laid on the table and the sonographer started, all my fears were calmed.  I love seeing a little baby inside of me wriggling, squirming, and thriving.  The baby had its hands up by its face and was acting all shy and coy.  Keilah loved looking at the screen.  All day she's been lifting up her shirt and pointing to her belly b/c we've been telling her "we're going to go look at the baby in Mommy's belly today."  She really thinks she's having one too, so adorable.  So, do you want to know what we're having?  Well, as far as we can tell right now (nothing's for sure until it pops out) we're having another girl.  I am thrilled for Keilah to be a big sister and to show her the ropes.  I am also excited to not have to buy another complete wardrobe for this baby :).  I feel very blessed to be given another opportunity to have a child.  There's been a lot of adjusting and moving and things going on this year and we are so blessed to be able to share in the creation of life.  Oh yeah, I'm pumped to have to little blonde girls running around playing together too :)  Nate's really happy and excited to teach this one everything he's taught Keilah.  He's a super-studly father and will have so much fun with his girls!
