Last Thursday I had my ultrasound at 21 weeks pregnant. Brad, Dawson, and Mary were able to go with me. The whole week before the ultrasound I kept having dreams about it and the equipment not working, the baby not looking like a baby, not knowing for sure what it is, etc. The night before I dreamed twice that it was going to be a boy. I was pretty sure it was a boy and was content with that.
We got to the appointment and had to wait (as usual) for what seemed like forever. I finally got called back and before I knew it my baby was on a 36" screen TV for everyone that went with me to view. There was also a resident doctor there that day so we got a super detailed ultrasound. My Dr. spoke out loud about everything he was looking for, looking at, and had some cool comments. He wasn't able to tell right away if it was a boy or girl but went back later and announced it was a girl. A part of me is still in shock about that because I thought for sure it was a boy. I am SUPER excited as is Brad. Dawson was really bummed because he wanted a brother. He did like seeing the baby on screen though. He loved when they baby yawned and when the baby covered her face with not only her hands but her feet. It made everyone laugh. The 2 pictures we got from the ultrasound are not all that great because of the fact that she kept her hands in front of her face the whole time so I won't be posting it. You really can't tell what anything is.
I have already had the chance to go baby shopping with my amazing mother-in-law. She is so excited to have another granddaughter. There are a lot of really cute baby girl clothes and items out there.
We have decided that we will be naming her Jane Elizabeth. Jane is my middle name as well as my Grandma Betsy and cousin Chelsea. Elizabeth is Mary's middle name as well as my Aunt Suzi's and 2 of my other nieces, Mae and Cora. We LOVE the name and is represents both sides of the family.
