Its a GIRL!

Thursday, February 24th was our last appointment with Dr. Sawyer in Arizona. We were not scheduled for an ultrasound, just a "tummy check". I was 16 weeks along at that point, and we already had an appointment scheduled for 18 weeks at another facility for an ultrasound there to reveal the sex of the baby and check each organ. Dr. Sawyer walked into the room and said, "Who wants to find out what you're having?!" We were so excited, especially since we didn't think we would find out for another few weeks. During the ultrasound the baby looked like it was running a marathon with the legs kicking non-stop. Finally our doctor got a good look and announced.... ITS A GIRL!

We had immediately agreed to not say anything to our families, as they were planning to fly out to Arizona the following week for my nursing school graduation and to help us move. We thought it would be neat to be able to tell them in person. Well that lasted for about 20 minutes. We also wanted to share the news with all our friends in Arizona before we left so by the end of the day I think we had called everyone we knew.

Jason and I have had fun looking around at things at Babies R Us now that we know the sex. We also found some discontinued baby bedding online in a cute print at a great discounted price. Once we get a chance to scan our recent ultrasound pictures I will post them. We are now officially "thinkin pink"! :)
