It's A...

GIRL!!!!
At our ultrasound last week the tech spent a lot of time with us, examining every square ounce of this baby to find that she looks to be very healthy and very girly. It's hard to see in the first picture but it is looking at the baby as if she were sitting on her bum and we are looking up from the floor. The outline is of her thighs and tiny bum with the arrow pointing to the three lines that prove she's a girl. This is so exciting to us. Andrew knew it was a girl so it just confirmed what he was already thinking. Riley thought it was a girl the whole pregnancy until about 10 minutes before the ultrasound then he insisted it was going to be a boy. The whole thing was overwhelming to him and I'm sure he didn't understand anything that was going on. After a lot of talking about it, he is now very excited he's going to have a sister. And me, well... I thought it would be nice to have another boy because I'm comfortable with that, and I have everything for a boy already, it would cheap and easy, but deep down I also knew it was a girl. I am excited and still very scared of all the things that come with raising a girl. But I feel blessed.
