It's a Girl!

Yes, we found out this morning that the new baby is a girl!!! Jillian will have a little sister to play with soon. It's seems that she has known it all along, because whenever we asked her, she always said that she wanted a little sister.

Mommy, Daddy and Jillian went to Southwest Washington Medical Center this morning for an ultrasound. Jillian got to go into the examination room, too, though after a few minutes, she got pretty restless since the video screen wasn't showing a Dora cartoon. The technician checked Mommy's tummy for quite a while, measuring this and that. When it was time to check the sex of the baby, Mommy agreed that we wanted to know. After a quick check, the technician said the baby was a girl! We were all very happy, and Mommy said that she had a feeling that the baby was a girl. The ultrasound went on for a bit longer, and we got a few pictures. The baby was pretty scrunched up in the womb, so it looks like she'll be long, too, like Jillian.

After the exam, Jillian celebrated by running down the hall, tripping and bonking her head on the ground; she ended up with yet another goose-egg on her forehead.
