Pink or Blue? THAT is the Question...

Today was the big day!  Yes, that's right...the big 20 week ultrasound!  Of course, we were most concerned with making sure we have a healthy baby, but we were eager to learn whether Katie would be getting a baby brother or baby sister!  After much anticipation, we are happy to announce....

Yep, that's right!  We are SO thrilled!  Here is the profile shot (I think that weird shaped thing is the placenta...I can't remember....) at 20 weeks, 5 days!

And the money shot...is this appropriate? Sorry if it isn't :) But it shows that there is indeed a boy wiggling around in there! It is as if he were sitting on a glass coffee table and you are looking up at the bottom of his legs, and his "parts"... 

Everything checked out just where it should be - he weighed in at a whopping 14 ounces and his heartrate was at 132.  And BOY was he wiggly during the ultrasound!  It looked like he was playing soccer with my very full bladder and dancing around.  So neat to see it on the screen and feel it going on at the same time!  We do have a name picked out already - that will come soon :)  Of course, the first thing I said was "Bring on the shopping!"....one of Brad's first comments? "Well at least that is one less wedding we have to pay for!"...I am one proud Mama.... 

Now, I have to get used to having some blue around.  Whew...what an adjustment for Katie.  We are waiting to tell her about having a baby brother when Brad gets home from work.  Can't wait to see her reaction!
