It's A Girl . . .We Think!

We had our mid-pregnancy sono a few weeks ago and everything appears to be healthy and well! The sonographer and I guessed our little active baby is a GIRL!!! I say "guessed" because it didn't appear all that clear. She (sonographer) double-checked and said it is a girl and I said it looked like a girl, so that's what we're going with. The doctor (by the way, is Justin's cousin's wife) said she couldn't tell from the picture. That does leave just a hint of doubt in our minds. However, we have to go back for another sono to see the stomach (she didn't get a picuture of that). Hopefully, we can confirm then.

Lucy Anne is so very excited! Of course, she knew all along she would be having a baby sister!!! She comments all of the time about letting her baby sister borrow her pajamas, her toys, and give her a bath. Oh, and she will also give her some of her bananas "when she gets born"! Lucy Anne prays for her Baby Ella with every prayer! Yes, that is the name we have chosen. We haven't quite decided on a middle name yet. My favorite part of this pregnancy is Lucy Anne's interaction with my belly! She is so very sweet to her baby sister already! She is such a little mother! Poor Ella will certainly get double the bossing around!

A little tangent . . . as I mentioned my doctor is Justin's cousin's wife. I am so thankful to have lived a fairly clean life (by God's grace)! You are very aware of that when you have to answer the "doctor questions" about sexual diseases and partners and drugs and so on. I told her how very thankful I was when she informed me my chlamydia/gonnorhea test came back negative! It was funny to me, anyway!

YEA!!! Having two little girls is so great.. and I love the name Ella too! I know how you feel about a little bit of doubt... I didn't totally believe that Camryn was a little until I saw with my own eye- since she had been so shy! Congratulations!
