Y'all Ready for This?

Our first attempt at finding out Chauncey's gender resulted in a FAIL of epic proportions. Baby simply would not cooperate. So we got to go back last Thursday for another chance (they didn't get good measurements of the heart, either). Chauncey was still marginally uncooperative, but finally turned to where the tech could say more definitively that it's a...GIRL!

And now for some scans of what I consider cuteness, and what I realize others may just see as giant blobs:


And here she is, kissing the placenta (I'm pretty sure that's something that I don't entirely want my unborn daughter to participate in, but I can't very well stop her):


I was honestly shocked; I thought for certain we were having a boy. Either way, we're both absolutely thrilled! Let the naming begin!

Congratulations! Don't worry about her placenta-kissing: I'm sure it's good for her hair.

I remember when we found out that George was going to be a girl. The technician told us to imagine that our child was sitting on a glass chair and that we were lying underneath. This, we were told, was the view that the ultrasound was giving us.

That lady REALLY creeped me out!
