Another Girl!

I never had a sister and growing up although I have always loved my big brothers, I still always wanted a sister. But for our family we found out yesterday that Raegan will have a sister! We had an ultrasound (19 weeks). It was a long level 2 ultrasound. They looked at every part of the baby. She wasn't being very cooperative. She kept putting her head down and curling up so it was hard for the Tech to get all of the measurements she needed. Towards the end of the ultrasound she asked if we wanted to find out the gender to which we responded yes. I was convinced it was a boy. At the 12 week ultrasound the doctor told us he thought it was a boy although it was too early to tell for sure. And all along my inclination told me it was a boy. I guess I don't have very good inclination. It was hard for the Tech to decide at first because the baby wouldn't open up her legs- being modest I guess. But she thought it looked like a girl. A little later she was able to get a better shot and sure enough she is a girl! We just kind of laughed because we always have a hard time deciding names and we had narrowed down some boy names but absolutely have no girl names picked out. So we have some work to do. We were shocked to find out that we have a second daughter on the way but we are thrilled. We are first of all just still in awe that God has chosen to bless us with another child and with a chance to experience adoption via a pregnancy. We are so excited to be on this journey. And we can't wait to meet our little girl in person. I look forward to seeing Raegan meet her new sister and see them grow up together. We are so excited to be on this journey as a family! I go for another ultrasound next week ( they need to check the stomach b/c they weren't able to check that on monday) and then I go for an appointment with the doctor next week as well. We'll keep everyone posted. And now I need to get to work on preparing for another little girl to arrive and hopefully have a name for it when she does! And we'll get some pictures up soon, I promise!
