IT'S A.......

The big day finally arrived!!!  We had been counting down the days until the big gender reveal ultrasound.  

It took the ultrasound technician no time at all to determine the gender because our little one was a big wiggle worm!!  Baby was very active... and the only sugar I had eaten all day was a nectarine hours before.  Maybe it was excited that we were checking it out and it was showing us all it's new tricks like bending joints and waving??  

Well, the big moment came and we found out that it is a....

                                    GIRL!!!!!!!!

We are so excited to have a daughter!  She already has captured both of our hearts and we can't wait to meet her!  

We were having a dinner party at our house that evening, so we decided to throw in a little "gender reveal" portion as well!  

Note: To all of you who have been asking why I have been waiting so long to tell you the gender (the ultrasound was on Monday), I have a great answer.  It was really important to us to tell both of our parents in person!  We have since done so (balloons with my family and cupcakes with pink frosting inside for Nick's family)!  Sorry about the lag time ;)
