Happy News!!!

A profile shot of our little girl. The head is at the top left and you can see her chest and two little hands.
This is our little one's heart beat. Too bad you can't hear it. It's the sweetest sound to this mom to be!

Today was the day I have been waiting on since my last ultrasound 10 weeks ago. I'm thrilled to announce that the ultrasound today went very well and baby looks great--strong heart beat and all organs/structures in place. And the baby cooperated very nicely (let's hope that continues) so we were able to see it is a little GIRL!!! So, no more "it" and "baby". She's our little girl. It's amazing how much more real she seems now that we know she's a girl.

This was the first time Wayne was able to see or hear our little girl. He stood beside me and held my hand throughout the ultrasound. I think he was a little surprised when the lady told us she was a girl, but he was the first one on the phone when we left the doctor's office calling his sister to share the news. Baby Girl Crow will be the first girl on either side of our family, so I have a feeling she will be very spoiled.

The next task on the list is picking out a name. It's funny because we had almost settled on a name for a boy and had already decided the nursery would be a nautical/sailboat theme. We haven't really made any decisions about names or nurseries for a girl. That's on my "to do" list once school is finished.
Thank you all for your continued support, encouragement, and prayers. They are very much appreciated!
Love, Rebecca--Baby Girl Crow's mommy
