It's a . . .

20 week ultrasound

We had our twenty week ultrasound this morning and discovered that our little "it" is actually a "she"!  Wow!

20 week ultrasound

It was really cool to be able to see her in person (well, as much as we'll be able to before birth).  She is healthy and also very active, which is especially reassuring because I haven't felt any definitive movements or kicks yet.  Baby is so active, in fact, that the ultrasound tech had a hard time keeping a decent image going!  Does that mean I'm in for some serious kicking in a month or two?  :D

Baby's feet

But the ultrasound tech was eventually able to confirm that baby is healthy and growing just as she should.  The tech even managed to snag this cute foot shot for us, and both the tech and the doctor were very confident that our baby is a girl.  We even got to see baby's girl parts.  Now we can get on with the important business of naming!

Don't forget to enter my art giveaway -- it ends tomorrow!
