It's a GIRL!!!!!!!

Today was my 19 1/2 week OB appointment, and most importantly my level 2 ultrasound!  Noah and I enjoyed seeing all of the amazing images (they have gotten better over the last 2 years) and knowing that everything is looking healthy with peanut #2.  The heart rate was 151 bpm today.  At the end of the ultrasound we had the gender revealed....another little girl!!!!  We are super excited!  She is super active and was moving around the entire ultrasound including kicking the umbilical cord and hiding from the ultrasound tech.  Looks like we've got a wild one on our hands! :-)  We were lucky enough to get a CD of some of the images and a few copies too....so fun!  :-)  Of course being the dad, all that Noah could think of was another wedding and another beautiful girl to protect......I, on the other hand, have already been on at least five different websites looking for adorable matching girl outfits!  I never had the pleasure of having a sister, so I am super eager to raise sisters and watch this special relationship unfold!
As for me, feeling fine these days.  I have gained 14 pounds so far, which my doctor said is just fine.  Although I feel huge, I guess I'm right on track.  Also, this baby is measuring larger than Addison did at this stage....10 ounces and 51-52 percentile.  It looks like we may need to call this one an almond instead of a peanut! :-)
Image pictures from the ultrasound and belly picture coming soon...................
