Drumroll please...

My intuition was right! IT'S A GIRL!!!

We got our favorite ultrasound tech for the appointment and everything looks great. The lady was so nice and very thorough with descriptions. She said we have a perfect baby girl. Our baby weighs 13 oz and the heart rate was 162. Everything measures right on with our original due date.

Here are the ultrasound pictures:

That's a good, strong runner's leg right there.

Hi mom and dad! A clear hand up by her head.

Two tootsies - one from the side and one footprint.

And here's the tell-tale FEMALE shot. The ultrasound tech said our baby girl wasn't being shy at all - just right out there with "these are my lady parts!" - so we are certain she's a girl. It's hard to understand this picture. The tech said it's the thighs and the dip in the middle on the right where you see 3 dots are the defining GIRL sign. Our baby had her legs bent mostly so I'm assuming they're bent and that there's a foot on the lower left of the shot? Sometimes, depending on the angle, you can see all the connections so it looks like the legs just stop.

So yeah! We are in for a whole new adventure and can't wait to meet our baby girl.
