It's a...


We had our 20 week ultrasound on Wednesday. Our little girl has all of her fingers and toes, arms and legs. She was really comfortable, all curled up and didn't want to show us her gender for quite a while. The ultrasound tech shook my tummy, told me to walk around some to get her to move. Finally the tech saw enough to say she was a girl. We are ecstatic!

After the appt we went to the party store and bought a bunch of pink streamers, signs and balloons and decorated Colin's parents house so when they came home they'd find our news! Here are some pictures from that day. Beth, Grandma Thomas, is so excited to have a granddaughter!


Jonas was not very happy about having a balloon following him everywhere he went, but it was so cute!





I didn't want to announce it until after we told my family in person yesterday for Sunday dinner. We made Jonas wear one of my old pink t-shirts that we wrote "Its a girl". Then we had him run in to my dad's were some of my family was. It was cute. Our poor dog, but he was a good sport!

OH MY GOSH I'M SO HAPPY! I can't believe you guys kept it a secret like that until you told your family- what good secret-keeping. I thought you didn't get to find out and felt so bad that you didn't. This makes me so happy that you did find out and especially that it's a GIRL! You've brightened a 39-week pregnant woman's day, you should feel proud.
