Our anatomy scan revealed a healthy, active baby girl! We had a wonderful tech who explained what we were seeing in detail and assured us that she is developing perfectly and that she is 100% for sure a girl. We even got a video of the ultrasound to take home and share with our family!
We revealed the news to the kids by giving them pink cake pops. Their reaction was amazing, especially Orion (he really wanted the baby to be a girl and was so excited!). Our family and friends were all thrilled as well. We were admittedly hoping for a girl, so we are overjoyed and relieved that she is healthy (and that bedroom arrangements won't be complicated ;).
We've been tossing around names, but it's hard to agree and decide! We have it narrowed down to about four first names, but we also have to consider middle names so it's a lot to think about! I guess we have time :)
Look at this beautiful girl! She's definitely one of ours ;)
Sucking her thumb!
