Baby Girl

Yesterday was the ultrasound, as you know Shaun already has the pictures up. Let me tell you some of the stuff they check and measure is kind of scary! The ultrasound lady (whose name was Carol, I will never forget that cause it's my moms name) would say I am measuring the skin at the back of baby neck, an large amount of skin could indicate downs syndrome and your baby.............(panic sets in).........is normal. They checked about a million little things but in the end it was nice to know that the baby is in there all safe and sound and growing just like it should.

Then on to the fun stuff, she asked us again if we were sure we wanted to know it was a boy or a girl. We told her yes so she started trying to get our modest little baby to open up it's legs, complete with me rolling on my side, her shaking and jiggling my tummy. Then she paused the screen got a huge smile on her face rested her head on her hand and said....now your really sure you want to know. Again was said YES. She told us it's a little girl. And showed us how she could tell. (Butt cheek - Butt cheek - 3 white dots) It was kind of cool I know now that my little girl is the one that is fluttering around in there and growing big and strong.

Overall it was really neat it made it more real, to see pictures of her little nose and her sucking her thumb and she was flexing her hand open and shut almost like she was waiving. So....now it's time to think pink and get her room ready for her. Due date confirmed as June 29th (accurate within 5 days) and she is 3/4 of a pound right now.

Kaitlyn Raegan Gines....our little girl!!!
