It's a ........

GIRL! Well, we’re 95% sure, anyway. We had our 15 ½ week appointment with my midwife, Machel Knowles, on March 26th and here is how it played out! Lucas had to teach a class at the Las Vegas branch so he was unable to make it and when I tried to reschedule the office would not have been able to get me in for another week. We were all so anxious since we knew we might be able to find out if we were welcoming a little daughter or son into our lives so we kept my original appointment and daddy kept his cell phone glued to his ear waiting for our call. Machel started the ultrasound machine up and made sure Emma and Nathan could see. She takes so much time with them helping to make sure they can see and explaining what we are looking at on the screen. Machel joked that we should be able to tell unless the cord was right between the baby’s legs and guess what - that is exactly where the cord was, but she was pretty sure she was able to see some girl indications. “95% sure it’s a Girl,” she exclaimed.

I couldn’t believe how much our little one had grown since the last ultrasound!
Emma is ecstatic – she wanted a sister! We’re having a daughter!

Here is a stock picture of a baby at 16 weeks.

Emma and I were so excited we could hardly stand it and Nathan was just playing!
