Ultrasound Day!!

On Friday, September 18th we had our big 20 week ultrasound!  As of that morning we were NOT finding out the sex of the baby...HOWEVER, then I got to thinking.  It would be fun, especially for the kids, to know whether this is a brother or a sister.  (Landon might need a little extra coaching through this if it's a sister!)  SO I chatted with Keith at 6:45, we were to leave at 7:10, that maybe it would be fun to have the tech put the gender in an envelope and we have a little reveal party with our families.  He wasn't on board yet, but took a shower and then decided he understood and agreed that it would be fun/best for the kids to know.  Yay!


waiting to go back!  I thought it would be fun for the kids to come to get to see the baby...for an 8:00am appointment, which required us to be up and out of the house ready for the day at 7:10...holy cow!

My mom and John had spent the night because we had Back to School Night at Reagan's school on Thursday, so they were able to come too!

Reagan captured this lovely shot :)


Here is the sweetness!!!  This was Reagan's favorite picture and she took it to school to show her teachers and friends.




This sweet babe is literally folded in half!



The ultrasound took about 2 hours!!  I was starting to get nervous, but everything looked great.  What a blessing!  They had to send in another tech to get all the images of the heart they were looking for...the first tech was just having a hard time finding all four chambers of the heart, just a minor detail.  They found them all though and everything looked wonderful!!

SOOOO we had the gender of this sweetness in an envelope that I finally dropped off last week at the same bakery that made the kids their "biggest sister" and "big brother" cookies to reveal to us if this is a boy or a girl in a cake.  In just under 2 weeks we'll have our "reveal party" to find out!  The kids are so excited...and so are we!

Once we left there it was time to drop off Landon at school, for an hour, and then Reagan, who was not sad at all to just have a 4 hour day!

After a quick day at school, we walked down to Dogtown with some buddies for a yummy lunch!
