It's a.....

GIRL!
We went for our ultrasound on August 8th and got the surprising news that we're having another girl! Adam and I both thought it might be a boy... and you all know what Sarah Grace wanted. I didn't know what her reaction to the news was going to be, she had insisted on a brother for 5 months!
We took her with us to the appointment and she watched for a little while but then lost interest because of a basket of toys... then the ultrasound lady said "it's a girl" and Sarah Grace looked up. We asked her if she understood and she said she told the nurse she was going to have a sister named Charlotte Rose. She acted like she had never wanted a brother.
They said Charlotte looked great and, at the time, was measuring 5 days ahead of schedule!! That could change of course, but a little wishful thinking never hurts!!! The Dr. also made a comment that she has really long legs... go figure! ;0)
The pregnancy has been okay... weeks 4-14 were awful, 14-21 were GREAT, and since 21 have been rocky. I've been having a lot of pain in my upper rib cage and back. I had it with SG but it came later in the pregnancy... This time my Dr. thinks she might have a solution. I think it's working, but I'm still having some rough days... we'll keep ya posted. But all in all, Charlotte is healthy and growing, and REALLY active!!!
