Baby Gift Items
Lots of people are wondering what we are needing in terms of baby gifts. Here is a list of what we are still missing (that I can think of...) :

It's a girl!
February 24th! What a special day!
Corinne's birthday, Amy's birthday, Chris's very last exam completing his apprenticeship and our ultrasound telling us whether we are having a girl or boy.
It's a girl!
What an amazing experience - having an ultrasound. I didn't realize how detailed the ultrasound would be! The first recognizable feature was the baby's spine. I remember thinking at that point, "Oh my goodness... that's a real baby!" The technician looked at everything, making sure all features were accounted for - even the liver. She measured everything, and I mean everything! She even measured parts of the brain to be sure that things were developing properly. I was utterly amazed at the detail that could be seen but what really struck me was watching the baby's movements! She was stretching, turning, flipping, moving her head (at one point she looked straight at us!) and waving! I nearly started crying when I saw those little fingers... nearly. Ok, maybe I cried...alot. These crazy hormones are making me break down at every slightly sentimental thing.
Stay tuned for more baby news!
