We had a great appointment on Thursday. Heather sneaked us into the ultrasound room and asked the tech to do a quick check to see what we are having. The girl that was there on Thursday happens to be the one that did our 12 week ultrasound with the last baby, so I think she was so excited to see us back at almost 16 weeks and thus was willing to do whatever it took to get us an answer.
At first she wasn't too sure. I don't see a penis, she kept saying. (Why is it ok to say penis 15 times when talking about a little one?) But she wasn't 100% sure. Then, at the very last minute, we got such a clear look, there was no question about it.
It's a girl!!!
I chose not to post the ultrasound picture. That angle they need to take is not very lady like. . .and I don't want my sweet girl starting out her life with indecent pictures on the internet. We'll have another look in 3 weeks and I'll get a nice photo to post of her.
Dave and I are so excited to know and attach more identity to this child. Of course, I've already gone out and bought a few cute girlie outfits and I can't stop dreaming about the nursery.
The Lord is so faithful and now that we know who is growing inside of me, it makes us even more grateful to Him for this life.

Jessica-
It's been so long since I've seen or talked to you, but I came across your blog online and have been praying hard for you for months now. I'm so excited for where you are, and that you're going to have a sweet precious girl! They are SUCH fun - you'll be an amazing mom to her. And as little as I actually know Dave, I know he'll be a great dad too. =)
I finally decided to leave a comment just to say hi, let you know that I'm following your journey, and that your family is in my prayers daily. Congratulations!
