It's official...(well, 90% anyway!)

Thursday I had my second ultrasound at my doctor's appointment. The ultrasound tech did this one in a much fancier room, and had a hard time with our modest child as well. The baby is still sitting breech, and the legs were crossed with a foot right in "that area." The technician shook my belly and had me move around, but those legs were not stretching out!! (I can attest that they do on occasion though, as it already feels like someone is jumping on my bladder at times!). Although she refused to uncross her legs, which Ryan thinks is a great quality for a daughter, her mouth was moving NONSTOP! It was pretty comical to watch! Anyhow, about halfway through, she said, "I'm almost positive what you're having, but I want to get a good picture for you." She finally said she had seen three dots seen in girls and no "rounding" or boy parts, so she was 90% sure it was a girl. According to our doctor afterwards, this lady doesn't predict unless she's pretty positive. So, after two "girl" predictions, I am pretty comfortable with beginning to shop and plan for decorating the nursery. Luckily our doctor is really great, and said he'll do yet another ultrasound at my next appointment July 1.

In the mean time, I am planning on swtiching beds around with my mom sometime this month so that Aiden will have a trundle bed for his room, and we can put his bed back in "crib mode" and move it into the nursery. I've picked out some bedding I like, and ordered fabric samples to make sure before I pick out paint and assign painting duties to Ryan. The bedding I like is Glenna Jean's "Chloe," and it is very pretty and feminine with pink roses, ruffles, etc.

I haven't posted any recent pictures in a while, so here are some that we've taken recently:
