Thank heaven, for little girls!

It's a girl!!!!!!!!!! I had my doctor's appointment on Tuesday (I'm a little late in posting the news) and we found out the news! Heath was so anxious on his way to the appointment I'm surprised, and so is he, that he didn't get a speeding ticket. He was in the waiting room 30 minutes before I got there! First we had the good ol' tummy check with the doctor just to hear the heartbeat. The little twerp kept moving around and we could only hear it for a few seconds at a time.

After the tummy check we waited what seemed like forever to see the ultrasound tech, but was probably 10-15 minutes. I've never seen Heath so anxious. You would have thought he was waiting to hear a jury's verdict! I must admit, I was a little ansty in the pantsy too ;).

We finally got in to see the ultrasound tech and she went over seeing the baby and explaining what each part it was we were seeing. We were glued to the screen! She told us the baby seemed to be progressing normally and looked healthy. And then there it was, spread eagle shootin' beavers all over the place. Our little girl sitting not so lady like. And that was our introduction to "Wilma". The next day I was able to catch it quick enough her kicking and for Heath to feel it. He looked like a kid coming down the stairs on Christmas morning to a tree full of presents!

The images of watching a little boy in peewee baseball and scoring touchdown's on the high school football field quickly changed to watching a little girl in an over-sized softball helmet and slamming the winning spike in a volleyball game. Well, that's how it was in my head. For Heath it was visions of an empty wallet every weekeknd and keeping a gun in a nearby corner only to print out whenever a boy came over. A girl, we're having a girl!!!!!
