Our ultrasound appointment was today at 2:30 p.m. and we were both so ready to see our sweet little baby again! We were most excited to find out the gender of our sweet baby but, of course, the baby decided to be stubborn and
we still have no idea. DEFINITELY upsetting -- but we got good news that our baby is very healthy and growing right on target! We saw the baby's head, legs, feet, belly, the four chambers of the heart, ribs, spine... we saw everything EXCEPT the genitals, of course. ;) The baby's heartbeat was 153 bpm today and weighs just at 10 ounces. And, we have some beautiful new pictures that I'm excited to share once I get them transferred to the computer.
That's all I can muster up for now... I'm pretty bummed out right now even though I am so happy to have a healthy baby. I just get myself so excited for these kinda things and then my bad luck rears it's ugly head and rains on the parade. So, hopefully I'll edit this later when I'm done pouting so I can show off the pictures of my good looking child. :)
Edit @ 11:51p.m.- Here is some perspective from my Aunt:
"Better to have a healthy baby than to know what you are having." So true; thanks Aunt Jill for giving me something constructive and positive to focus on! :) Love you!

Awwww, don't be sad! The ultrasound picture is beautiful!!! Congrats! Besides, you still have time, and hopefully you'll have another opportunity to take a peep at your baby's gender down the road! :)
