...and baby #2 is a GIRL

I had my 20 week ultrasound today (at 18w4d) and all is well. Baby is measuring right on track, with the exception that her legs are measuring a week ahead! Laila was the same way, I believe. I guess we just make long legged kids. The technician was also able to confirm that this baby is a girl, so Laila will have a little sister :) A small part of me was really hoping for a boy, but I am super excited that Laila will have a little sister so close in age.

Overall we are just super thankful to have a healthy baby growing in my belly. I can't believe this pregnancy is almost halfway over already. I am not feeling as anxious about this pregnancy being over as much as I was with Laila. While I am very excited to meet our new one, I am also relishing the time I get to spend one on one with my precious buggy.

Here's a few photos from the ultrasound:

Think about how awesome it is that you have Courtney! I always wish I would have been able to go through life with my sister.

We are so happy that girl #2 is healthy and she sure has her Mom's lips just like Laila. God is good.
