We found out we’re having a girl! We were so surprised! We totally thought we were having a boy! We had the ultra sound on Jan. 27. It was funny because the nurse was going through everything, telling us about what we could see on the ultra sound. She said, “Here are her girl parts, here are her feet, etc.” Then, I said, “Wait, so it’s a girl?!” She said, “Yes, it’s a girl. I can double check if you want me to.” She double checked, and sure enough, our baby is a girl!
We were so happy to hear that she is healthy! The nurse said everything looks good so far. We can’t wait until she comes! These pictures were taken the night we found out after the Draper temple open-house (in the post before this). I am 20 weeks along now.

First of all — Wow! You look amazing. Is it bad that I’m jealous of that?!
Secondly, how fun! A girl! We couldn’t find out
I was sad. The baby was not behaving and they could only just get the measurements and checks they needed. It would turn the wrong way or cover whatever they were trying to look at with it’s hand! Already a handful!!
And as for checking what ‘parts’ it had – it had it’s legs firmly crossed and it’s ankles locked and at one point even put it’s hand between it’s legs too!! Maybe it’s going to be a naturally modest, shy child?! I should be so lucky! Hope you are feeling as great as you look! Miss you! xx
