19 Weeks and IT'S A GIRL!

So every week I check on the progress of little Ellie Reese by reading updates on various sites such as What to Expect and Baby Center. I wanted to share this post with all of you because it absolutely cracked me up!!!

Two weeks ago we went to an ultrasound and our little girl was quiet and comfortable as can be. We didn't get many good pictures due to her positioning. We went back last week and were able to get some good profile pictures but she was still pretty calm. Fellow nurses and Mommas say that might mean she's a calm baby.....I'd love that! No doubt her dad could probably get her riled up, but for me calm would be great!

Daddy Dave is getting into the girl spirit. He did some shopping for her last weekend and it was his idea to pick out her "coming home" outfit. So cute!

Even Niko is getting quite curious about all the stuff that is showing up!

First Teddy from Hillary and Rich Pieroway and a plaque we painted at Color Me Mine to put in Ellie's nursery.

She is measuring at about 9 oz and 7 inches. Her sensory abilities are becoming intact so there's been a lot of talking to her :). I really, really, can't wait to see her! Every little change going on in there is so exciting and truly a miracle.
