It's a baby girl

Here is an ultrasound of our newest baby expected in May. We had a brief ultrasound this morning. You could call it an early Christmas present. The baby has a perfect little profile and looks to be in great health with a strong heartbeat.

If you look closely, you can see the baby's hand and fingers just above the nose. Too cute! And...... It looks like our new sweetheart will be able to use these precious pink shoes. It's a girl!!! I cried with joy when the technician told us. Mike will proudly tell you that he knew it was a girl all along. He will have a daddy's little girl and I will have someone to teach how to cook, knit and dress in bows. And even better, she will have a wonderful, big brother, Will, to look after her. We couldn't be more thrilled.

In three weeks, I will be seeing a high-risk maternity specialist for a detailed, in-depth ultrasound. However, there is nothing for us to worry about. Because of Will's premature birth, the doctors are just being extra cautious and watching the pregnancy closely. We thank you in advance for your kind and loving thoughts and prayers.
