It's a Girl!

We found out today that our baby is a baby girl!  My husband and I went in for my 20-week ultrasound to check the anatomy of the baby and to determine the sex of the baby.  At a previous ultrasound at only 13 weeks, the ultrasound technician told me that the baby was probably a boy.  We have been thinking about the baby growing inside me as a "he" these past seven weeks.  We were ready to have a little boy.  When the ultrasound technician today said, "well, it looks like a girl," we were shocked.  We both said, "excuse me what did you say?"  We are just as excited to have a girl but we are definitely surprised.  Since this is our first baby, it doesn't really matter to us what gender it is.  I will have to get used to calling her a "she" from now on.  I have always wanted a girl so I am thrilled because now I don't have to wonder if I will ever have a girl because we are starting with a girl.  I don't think that I will ever forget this big surprise!
