Girl > Boy

So, um... this is my once monthly post, ha ha. Just kidding, I hope. Went to my 20 week ultrasound appointment today. Very exciting. We'll have pictures posted as soon as we get them scanned into the computer. You'll get to see some very solid looking bones that look like mini arm and leg bones, and maybe the spine. Our baby girl? has a very nice looking spine and brain and organs look good too. This alleviated many of my worries about the little ones development. So now after having some measurements taken, the ultrasound tech gave us an estimated due date of the first week of Sept. This will make travelling in July even more of a challenge, but that's okay. I've still hardly gained any weight and I've been walking plenty with all the nice weather we're having, as can be seen here in a photo taken several weeks ago, but it's about the same, just less snow. Yeah!!


This picture was taken out at Mendenhall glacier. A sure sign of spring: Pussy willows!! The willow tree in my yard, that I refuse to cut down because it bears these every spring, currently has much smaller versions of these growing on it. Very exciting. I even got a glimpse, a very small one mind you, of the grass in the middle of my front yard. It is so nice and springy here it makes me want to just sit outside and enjoy the sun. Hope your springs are coming along likewise.

Oh and, as for the gender of the little one... it's most likely a girl, but there is a small chance it could be a boy. So, we'll be expecting a girl while being prepared for a maybe boy. As for the name, you'll just have to wait till she's born.
