It's a GIRL!?!

What a surprise we got today! We went in for our 20 week ultrasound only to find out that "Baby Ben" is a girl!!! We told the tech that we were pretty sure it was a boy so she was very thorough at showing us that there definately aren't any boy parts there. She is beautiful! We got to see her stick out her tongue, wave, play with her hands (Granny - I think she is going to be a knitter) and suck her thumb!! She is also very lady-like. After we were certain that she is NOT a boy, she crossed her legs at the ankle. Most of all, she seems to be very healthy. Our heads are still spinning, though. We didn't have any girl names ready and had already planned out "his" nursery....we already have our work cut out for us!

Here she is sucking her thumb. I couldn't resist putting a pink bow on her head.
Guess we can't call her "Baby Ben" anymore!

Congratulations! We are so happy for you. A little girl...how sweet! Just what Gabe will need...a little sister to protect and love. And boy, will he be a great big brother to her! Congrats again!
