It's a....
GIRL?
A very modest girl. The technician says she's sure. The obstetrician says it's more likely to be a girl than a boy, but really uncertain. So we're gonna keep the pink stroller and car seat, and if it turns out to be a boy then he can just be embarrassed for a few days. Woohoo! My princess gets a little SISTER! I'm jealous!
Ariel spent the ultrasound sitting in her daddy's lap eating snacks (chis! chis! [cheese]) and watching mommy get prodded. She also spent a good deal of the time pulling her shirt up and showing us her little tummy, apparently since mommy was doing the same thing with HER tummy. It was VERY cute!
We're both glad to be having a little girl, although there's a certain amount of let-down as we let go of the idea of redecorating with cars and trucks and sports stuff and all the blue that would otherwise be beginning now. We don't want to stop with two kids, though, so we should get a boy out of the mix before all is said and done. For now, I want to focus on ways to make this child's visit unique, maybe switching out a few things so that everything she wears and has wasn't her sister's first. I think that's important.
Ta-ta!
