Baby ________

Alright, alright. I know a couple of posts ago I said I was anxious for our 20 week ultrasound. Well, credit to Elizabeth from my ward for commenting about never waiting that long. She put this idea in my head that I should go sooner. I called the Dr's office yesterday and got an appt. for today! I had such a hard time falling asleep last night and today felt so long! But, we had an ultrasound! Our appt. was for 4pm but when we got there the receptionist told us she didn't have an appt. for me today and that it was for next Wednesday. The lady who I talked to yesterday told me the wrong day! But, since it was just a gender check (15 min. ultrasound) and since it is so greatly anticipated they squeezed us in at 5:45! Thank the heavens. I don't think I could have waited another week. 

Well, here they are folks. Pictures of our beautiful baby. And revealing of the big surprise!
[Ok, I realize it looks like an alien, but seriously, so cute!]
[Perfect!]

[Squished in a ball]
[It's a girl!!]
[Her foot]

This last picture cracks me up. She would not sit still for a second. She was the wiggliest baby I have ever seen! When the ultrasound tech was trying to take a picture of the foot our little girl was kicking all over the place. This was the least blurry picture she could get! I was so happy to see her moving around so much. Now, if only I could feel her! Soon enough!

And since I have such a great husband, he took video! 


You can see her heartbeat in this one. It's incredible. 




So there you go. We are having a little girl! As soon as we left the dr's office, I broke into tears. I couldn't help it. I was just so stinking excited. Little girls are so fun to dress up! :) It feels so much more real now that we know what we're having. I love being able to call the baby a she! Hooray for little girls! 

And here is embarrassing footage of me crying in the car...haha

  3. Yay Danna! I loved the pictures! the one of the leg was so clear! I'm glad she's so wiggly! :) Healthy and happy in there. :) I bed you'll start feeling her any day now. It takes a while to recognize it, but when you know it's her it's incredible! Enjoy!!!
