We're having a...

We went to the doctor yesterday and are thrilled to announce we're having a...













GIRL!!!!!!
We are SO excited! We had our first appointment with the high-risk doctor yesterday, at 16 weeks. We mentioned to our doctor that at our first ultrasound, at 12 weeks, I was measuring 9 days earlier than what I thought my due date was (May 9th). So our doctor decided to check again with another ultrasound to see if my due date needs to be changed. We were excited because an ultrasound meant that we'd probably be able to find out the sex, and we were right! When the nurse said, "How do you feel about a girl?" I gasped! We are both absolutely thrilled!!

This ultrasound still showed me measuring about a week ahead, so for now I will go ahead and skip to 17 weeks.


How far along: 17 weeks

Size of the baby: An onion - 5 inches long

How I am feeling: I haven't exercised much since I've been pregnant - I just haven't had the energy. But, now that I'm in the second trimester and have a (tiny!) bit more energy, I want to start walking on the treadmill this week.

Highlights this week: Finding out we are having a girl! After we left the doctor's office, the first thing I wanted to do was to buy our first girl outfit (we did the same thing after we found out Will was going to be a boy!) Matt had a few last minute Thanksgiving items to pick up at the grocery store, so he dropped me at a children's store to buy ONE outfit. 15 minutes later, I walked out with this...



I couldn't resist:)
