Our Baby Girl




Well yesterday was the most fun day of my pregnancy yet! We went in for our gender ultrasound/diagnostic ultrasound and our little girl is PERFECT! We had to wait almost 30 minutes and I was getting SUPER nervous... not about the gender part, but about the diagnostic part, this is a very important ultrasound where they look to make sure the heart, brain, kidneys, spine and everything else are developing correctly.

Our ultrasound tech Susie was incredibly nice and we were quickly looking at our little one on the screen. Our future acrobat was doing a HEADSTAND in there! Feet up by my belly button (cute feet) and head all the way down... we got to see her heart, femur bones, brain, and everything was PERFECT! She does look like she's going to take after her mom and grandpa and have a long torso and short legs, but we'll see...

Finally Susie had me lay on my side and we started pushing on my stomach to make the baby move positions, it took a few minutes but she finally went onto her side so we could get a shot spine and some wonderful profile shots. Susie said she was 100% sure that the baby is a girl and my doctor says Susie is NEVER wrong, so PINK it is!

Amelia is currently 6.5 inches long, measuring right on time for her delivery date and we got to see her making the cutest sucking motion with her mouth, it was almost like she was blowing us kisses.

Here are some pics of our little girl, let the shopping spree begin!
