The Pressure's Off

Yesterday I had another ultrasound for the baby. This was the 19 week check up to see if baby is growing properly.

It is always a very exciting time to see your little one before they are born.

We had to wait until the technician was done measuring and checking baby out before we could have a look ourselves.



This may not be the clearest picture, but you can see baby's profile from head to toe (baby is curled up in a ball). It looks like baby has a big head if you ask me, but maybe I'm just getting a little paranoid.

I asked the technician if she can see if it's a boy or a girl considering that there are a lot of people expecting me to produce a girl this time. "Well", she said, "the pressure's off... it's a girl!".

Andy and I were so excited. Don't get me wrong, we would have been very excited to have another boy too, but to now have a girl is very special.

Evan couldn't figure out why we both had tears in our eyes, but he just kept starring at this fuzzy picture on the computer monitor. It was as if he was asking, "What's that?".

Don't worry Evan, you will soon find out what that is.
