It's a....

GIRL!!!

Yes, yesterday we went and met with my new doctor, Natalie Loewen and also had our ultrasound. I told the ultrasound tech I thought we were having a boy and about twenty seconds later she turns to me and says, "It's not a he." I was shocked! At first I didn't believe her, but the pictures really prove it. She really gave us a good couple of shots! I will admit I did shed a few tears at that point in time. I was really hoping that she was a she, but I didn't want to get my hopes up. As soon as the tech told me, I started to tear up.

We spent about thirty minutes making sure she looks healthy and so far so good! She was being a little stubborn and laying on her arms, twisting around a little bit. But she is healthy, and that is all I care about. Toward the end they had one of the doctors come in and he let us watch her for a few minutes cause she had the hiccups. She is so cute!

Right after we headed straight over to my mom's with the pictures and the DVD they made for us. As soon as the word girl left my mouth, they shouted for joy and then pounced!! They were both really hoping for a girl and I'm glad we could deliver! As soon as Dad got home we put in the DVD and let them see her too. It was a wonderful moment for all of us. Today we'll go over and show Jer's parents too. This is their first grandbaby (they have step-grandkids, but never got to see them as babies) and so it will be very special for them too.

From the minute I found out I was pregnant I felt that if we were having a girl her name would be Maegan Elizabeth Sorensen, and after yesterday it really feels like it fits. For now we are just anxiously waiting to hold our little girl in our arms. October 6th here we come!

A BIG congradulations to you two!!I am so excited for you and the events to come. I know your life will be filled with lots of love to offer this new little baby girl that is about to join your eternal family! I am also excited to hear the excitement in your voice about her! Being a mom is the most wonderful thing in this whole wide world, nothing compares to being a mother and looking down at the presious little creation in your arms. I still look at my two little boys the same as I did the second the doctor layed them on my chest for the first time. It gets better and better with every passing day that goes by.
She will be beautiful just like her mother!
If you need anything, I'm always here for you.
