Ultrasound Day


Today was "ultrasound day".
This was my second ultrasound; I got a sneak peek at the baby back on December 23 in quick care, but they were unable to print any pictures for me and Jerry was not able to attend. Today was time for the MAIN ultrasound, the OFFICIAL ultrasound, the...well you get it. Today would have been the day that we could find out if we are having a boy or a girl, but as most of you know Jerry and I have promised since the very beginning that this time around we wanted to be surprised and would NOT find out the sex of the baby. We want to do it a little different this time, keep the suspense up, anticipate the big surprise, and drive my family nuts, LOL! I was so worried that I would accidentally see what the baby was. The tech turned the screen when she was ready to peek "down there" and even she was unable to find out...baby kept his/her legs crossed and wasn't gonna let anyone know. We laughed as we were amused that even the baby agrees that keeping his/her identity a surprises is the right thing to do! I love what Jerry said last night to me, "I like not knowing what the baby is yet, just like I wouldn't want to know what my Christmas presents are". Perfect.
