Sweet Pea has a Gender!

Today we had our big ultrasound appointment! I don't think I slept more than a couple of hours last night - and when I was sleeping I had weird ultrasound dreams. The most memorable of which concerned a long line in the Wal-mart Ultrasound Department. That's right. I dreamed we booked our ultrasound at Wal-mart and were worried we wouldn't get through the appointment before the milk we had in our cart got warm. STRANGE.
The suspense was killing me all morning. I had to sit and wait in the waiting room for about 45 minutes before I got called back to the room. Then, as usual, they take 30 minutes to collect all the images they need for the doctor. Then...it was showtime! They turned the screen so Mike and I could see our little Sweet Pea. The ultrasonographer described what we were seeing - and then asked us if we wanted to know the gender. I think I practically interrupted her when I screamed "YES!". My heart was pounding as she announced....It's a GIRL!!





And just for the record...I'm two for two! I was totally confident Mason was a boy - from the very beginning. And I was totally confident this one was a girl - almost from the moment I found out I was pregnant. Now that's talent. Ha ha. We can't wait to welcome a precious daughter into the world! Now we just have to come up with a name. Any suggestions?!
