1st Ultrasound! Boy or Girl??

Yesterday we FINALLY had an ultrasound. I was a little late getting one because we were in the process of switching insurances, so at 21 weeks 1 day, I got my ultrasound. It was seriously one of the most amazing things I've done and felt in my life. I have felt the baby kick but I felt like I was able to connect with the baby on a whole new level!

The lady who did my ultrasound was so cute and sweet. I am trying really hard to remember her name because I asked her twice... but I can't. She had a really cute accent, I'm thinking maybe Russian, but it wasn't a super strong one, just enough to sound like a sweet lady. I wish I knew her exact origin but I couldn't think of how to word the question so I didn't bring it up.

Anyway.  I was in there for almost an hour, though it felt shorter. It seemed like she had a really good time. She kept saying how it was good that I am thin because we could see the baby a lot better because of that. She also kept giggling and laughing because the baby kept moving and sometimes it was hard to get a good clear shot of things. She kept saying "I can't believe how much this baby moves" and would be chuckling while she said it. She sent me home with a little over 20 pictures which was really nice. I don't know what is normal, but I felt like that was kind of a lot.

I am really lucky that I got such a nice lady to do my ultrasound. I was kind of nervous that I would get a grump... and I mean this is my first baby. But Heavenly Father has been answering my prayers and is looking out for me, even though these are little eternally insignificant things. I do feel blessed.

I wish the pictures could show how much the baby moved and were a little more clear. It was so amazing to see the baby moving around, moving its fingers, even got a little yawn in there. Haha the feet were hard to get a good shot of too because they kept moving... our little soccer player :). Anyway, here are some of my favorites that I put up on the side of the fridge:


The yawn looked a lot cuter when you could see the face and the baby moving!  

It's amazing how I could see all four chambers of the heart!

Perfect little feet(foot). 

And the profile.

Cody and I don't know the gender yet. Only Auna, Kylee, Maryl, and Ron. Geez. I'm almost regretting this haha. I won't tomorrow though. We are doing a little gender reveal which I will post on after I make the video... if it turns out.

I really think the baby is a Boy. I didn't have any strong feelings about it until the last few weeks but honestly I just have a feeling that we are having a Boy. Cody however has the feeling that we are having a girl. Haha. I really have convinced myself though... I feel like I'm at least 90% sure. Guess we will know for sure tomorrow.
