It's a GIRL!!!

I think we were both too excited to sleep last night...I tossed & turned, while Clay decided to get up & play Warcraft on the computer until 2am. Starting at 8am I was supposed to drink 32 oz of water & not go to the bathroom until after the ultrasound was complete at 10am. For those of you who know me well...that was a tall order. By 9am I was miserable and by 9:10am (our appt was supposed to start at 9am) I was just plain mad. I gave in & went to 'release' a bit...waiting till 9:20a and then released more. Then about 9:30am Clay said something funny and off I ran again to the bathroom. We finally got in for the ultrasound about 9:35am. The technician was doing her thing for about 20 minutes and then decided my bladder was too full & might be squishing the baby! So the torture finally ended and I was able to empty my bladder. Another 20 minutes of looking around and she announced we should turn away if we didn't want to know the gender right then. After the ultrasound was over, the tech told us all looked well and that 'it' was measuring to the day of the due date of 7/18. Then she wrote on a piece of paper (per our request) "IT'S A GIRL" and sent us on our way. A few short minutes later we were headed out for brunch & the big reveal. When we opened the card & saw the ultrasound photo it took us a few seconds to see her note...and then I started to cry at The Egg & I. Long story short - we feel so very blessed that all appears well with Babygirl Pea....
