U/S and Reveal

I had my Ultrasound on Friday morning, both my mom and Mark came. It went well. First I had mark come in to do all the necessary medical measurements and then my mom was able to come into the room and check out Bug. The Tec was fairly nice, she let me know what she was measuring and showed me everything on the screen. She said that bug was like a gymnast all curled up with its legs over its head, sucking on its knee. Bug wasnt being super cooperative and she wasnt sure she got all of the measurements. Well turns out the dr today told me she did and everything looked GREAT. I am growing a perfectly healthy baby. I cant be happier :) Well maybe I can a tad bit and here's why.... Both Mark and I decided that we were and are going to be celebrating everything about this pregnancy. So we wanted to do a small gender reveal party for close friends and family. We wanted the tec to write down the gender of our sweet bug on a piece of paper and have a friend stuff a cupcake with pink or blue icing. Well this tec said she could not do that but if she could tell the gender that she would have to tell us. Well God had a different plan, he wanted it to be done OUR way. Thank you Lord. We were not able to find ut the gender at this ultrasound, so when we left I called a private place in Kelowna and they were able to fit us in in the perfect time slot for our day. When we got there the Tec began the U/S and was able to tell the gender. She did not show us but instead wrote it down on a piece of paper like we were hoping for. She was Great!! She showed us Bugs chubby cheeks, long legs, big feet, and even a tuff of hair..... So cute and what a wonderful experience.

Saturday came and so did the Gender reveal party. Both Mark and I had no idea what we were having, only the baker (a close friend who was there that day) knew. At the reveal I had people guess boy or girl and grab a prop depending on that guess to take a group shot. I really wanted to record who guessed what. Well my husband was certain bug was a boy, and I had a huntch Bug was a girl. It seemed that most people went with my husband and guessed boy. There were only 4 people including myself to guess girl, the rest (14ish) guessed boy. I thought there is no way all these people can be wrong I must be wrong. Well turns out that I wasnt and we are having a little GIRL!!! I am so thrilled. It took a good couple of days for that one to sink in.

I have since gone clothes shopping for her and have had a blast doing so :)
