It's A Girl!!

Aparently this is a good shot...I am going to take their word...


Pictures like this always amaze me...you can see every bone!!! We even got to see all four chambers of the heart, and all 3 veins in the cord...God is amazing, and it is awesome that science and technology allows us to see His glory!

This is a pretty good shot of the whole baby...she is really tiny for 20 weeks (only 10 ounces), but Dr. Swan came in and said he is still going to keep the due date at May 4. I am praying she doens't go early like Titus, because she will probably need as much time in the oven as possible! :)

So, overall, a great ultrasound...and thankfully no twins!!!! Many of you know we really were hoping for another boy, but are still excited (a little nervous) for a girl! We gave you the gender, now you will have to wait until she is born to get the name :) We already have it picked out, but if you want to guess, feel free :)

(HOUSE UPDATE: The offer on our house was super low - we would lose money on the house, even with all the work we have done...so, now we are counter-offering. We should hear back in the next 24 hours!! They want to close by January 16, which would be WONDERFUL!! We are praying they accept our new offer)

Do we even get hints like first letter or Biblical? I'm glad everything looked great. I have seriously enjoyed having a little girl, and I know you love Titus, so I figure things will be good for both of us. And you've got a great dr, not that I'm biased or anything. :) Congratulations on your baby girl, and I hope the house thing is resolved quickly and to everyone's satisfaction.

That is a great shot to confirm that it's a girl!! Girls are sooo fun!! Bekah is 26 months, and is getting a new baby sister in April. I definitely wanted another girl. Our Sarah was 15 oz. at 20 weeks, so I'm hoping that she comes early like Bekah. Good luck with your house!!

Deven-
Sorry, no hints - but I will say we like Bible names :) But we won't tell you if you guess correctly!

Paula-
Since you have gone through two ultrasounds with girls, and you think it is a great shot too, that makes me feel better!

Lynnette-

Congratulations you guys! Those are amazing ultrasound shots! Something to ponder...If God can create such a wonderful child for you two, do you think He can work out the house being sold? I'm guessing you both know the answer already.

We're not sure if we'll be able to see you when we come down since our Christmases are on the 25th and 26th. It could work on the 27th if you don't have church activities. Let us know if Wednesday works for you.
Merry Christmas!
