IT'S A GIRL!!!!

We had our 20 week ultrasound and found out ~ we are having a little girl! Right now, she is about 10 oz. and around 6.5 inches long (from head to rump). Here are some pictures from the ultrasound. Enjoy!

This one confirms that she is indeed a little girl!



This is the 3-D picture that makes her look like a little alien.



A little foot







These are more 3-d shots. She has her hand on her forehead.





She is covering her face and waving in this picture.




The ultrasound tech took a lot of pics! She is looking right at the "camera" .
This is a head profile shot.



Almost done, I promise! She is covering her eyes in this one.






And finally, we were able to catch a big yawn!

6 weeks old

We went to the doctor to confirm and they ran a few blood tests and did an ultrasound at 6 weeks. This is what our little bean looked like then. It is just the little blob, but even at 6 weeks we could see and hear the heart beating. It was the size of a grain of rice at this picture.

It's official!

Once I got back from Boston, the jet lag didn't seem to go away. I noticed I didn't feel too good the last day or two there, but I figured it was lack of sleep and being on the go. When I flew back, I was up for 24 hours that day so I knew it would take some time to recover. I got back on Monday night and when I still wasn't feeling very good on Thursday, I decided to find out for sure. I took a pregnancy test Thursday night and it was positive! I took another one Friday morning (just to be sure) and sure enough - same result. Here is the proof!

Boston


I went to visit my cousin in Boston in June. I left on the 20th and came back on the 25th. It was a great visit with Holly and Matt and Boston was a beautiful city. Although Dan and I were "trying", we didn't think I was actually pregnant when I left on the trip.


This picture was the last picture taken of me before I found out I was pregnant. This is Holly and I at Cheers in Boston. Although we didn't know it, our little bean got to visit Boston too!
