Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice

That's what MY little GIRL is made of!!

Yesterday, I had my 20 week ultrasound and not only did I get to see my precious little one now that she looks like a baby and not a jelly bean, but we also found that the baby is a she!!

This really came as a complete shock to me and most of my family, along with the in-laws.  We all figured it was a boy.  This assumption was partly due to the fact that Rusty's sister has 2 boys and Rusty's brother had 3 boys before he had a girl.  So boys just seem to run in the family, especially for the first born.  But we broke the mold and we couldn't be happier about it!! Rusty said he had a gut feeling it was girl even though he wanted a boy, but he doesn't seem to be too disappointed that it's a girl.  I think this little one is going to have her Daddy wrapped around her finger faster than you can blink!

We also discovered yesterday that this little girl is a WIGGLE WORM!!! They had me go to the bathroom 3 different times, so that the baby would move and the tech could see what needed seeing.  When it came time to take picutres my little bean was a bit bashful! First, she had her hands in front of her face, then she had her foot up there!!! Little stinker!! But we did manage to get a few good shots of her.  Here they are:

Here is my precious baby girl. 
Isn't that a good profile? :)

Here's a close up of the little munchkin.

My flexible little monkey!!
Can you see how she has folded herself in half and is staring at her foot?

So that is our exciting news!! After going through all of the heartbreak of waiting seeing my precious angel has filled my heart and humbled my soul.  I feel so very honored to be her mother.  I can't wait to see my baby girl!! I love her so much already!!!! :)
