Thinking Pink!

We had our ultrasound today and it looks like we get our little girl after all! I was so nervous going to Doctor today because I kept thinking of all the things that could be wrong but everything looks great. She was very cooperative and we could see all of her organs and limbs very well. (Here is her little profile with her hand in her mouth.)
The due date of April 14th still stands. Noah is excited because he says he wanted the baby to be a girl because we already have a boy. I am so excited because now I won't be outnumbered in this house.The ultrasound tech also did a 3D pic for us and you can see her sweet little face. I think she has Logan's nose. When they told me it was a girl, I couldn't help but cry because I was so happy... and Jason laughed at me! I love my little boys so much but this mommy is so ready for a little girl!

On a side note, I wanted to share the experience I had while we were at the Tetons for our family reunion this last summer. We usually have a church meeting on Sunday up there and while my Grandpa was sharing a story about his mother, I had this overwhelming feeling that I was pregnant (because I didn't know for sure yet at that time) and that this baby is very special spirit and is a girl. I also felt that we should name her after my great-Grandma, which is a name that Jason and I have discussed and liked for a long time. I'm not going to tell you the name though, until she gets here. I need to leave a little surprise right? I told Jason about the feeling I had but he told me to not get my hopes up just in case. When it came time for the ultrasound today, I was of course questioning myself but I was relieved to hear that she is a girl! We are so thrilled and I can't wait to get started on the nursery and to finally shop on the pink side of the stores.

Yay!!!! I am SO excited for you!!! What an awesome mommy you are, and it's only fair a little girl get to experience that, too! The pink side of life is definitely fun in a totally different way than the blue side ;)

I'm so excited for you! Little girls are so fun. Boys are great, but I think there's just something special and fun about a mom having a little girl. I'm glad you and the baby are OK and hope it stays that way.
