It's a GIRL!!

After another sonogram this afternoon, Heather and I are delighted to announce that George is a girl! That means that about 90% of those polled (including me) guessed wrong- maybe the "George" nickname, however unisex (see post below) threw everybody off. I really don't know much about girls, so my head has been set spinning all over again, but when I think of the amazing little girls I've had the joy of meeting in the last few years (Melea, Lucy, Hannah...) I am very excited. And Brad and Erin (see link on the right) learned today they are having a boy, so it's good to know we're keeping things balanced. Most importantly, she looks healthy and perfect, which is the best news.

Here a few pictures from the brand-new sonogram machine we used today. It looks like she's smiling in the profile shot, and the strange parts of the 3-D shot are from the uterine wall and her hand in front of her face. I think she looks beautiful, so she obviously takes after her mother.

Thanks for all of your encouraging notes. Heather and I really feel blessed to have such a supportive community around us.
