It's a GIRL!

Just a quick post to let everyone know that Lindsay and I are having a little baby girl! The ultrasound went great today and everything was perfect! Got to see the baby yawn on the ultrasound and saw the little 'girl parts'. At first I thought we had a very well-endowed baby, but it turned out to be the umbilical cord. :)

Speaking of umbilical cords--that thing doesn't just come right off after birth!! It stays there for a couple of weeks! What's up with that???? I must admit, I'm a bit freaked out about some of the gross stuff, but I know I'll get over it once she gets here. At least she cant pee on me while I'm changing diapers ;)

  1. congrats!

    and uh, just to prepare you, little girls can pee on you just as well as little boys. my niece is an excellent shot. the trick is to keep it covered at all times. never leave yourself open. :)

  2. Congratulations! My baby girl is 14 now. I sure miss those baby days. Just remember to stay in the moment and cherish it all. Also, a little pee never hurt anything;)

  8. Congratulations! Pee isn't that bad, it's all the other stuff, burping and well - you'll find out. But all that's nothing to the joy of your own child.
