A Day We Will Never Forget

Today is a day that we will always remember. This morning we had our ultrasound to see Baby C and to make sure that the baby was healthy. Big C wanted to know the answer to the following question:
"Do I have a little brother or a little sister?" (Actually, he can't really ask that, but we know what he was thinking!)
Well...the answer is..........

Curt and I are excited (and a little shocked) to announce that Baby C is a SHE!

Baby C is a healthy baby girl! We are beyond thrilled and feel so blessed. She is measuring a little small, so our fabulous doctor decided to push back the due date til February 21st. During the ultrasound, Baby C was very relaxed and honestly slept for most of the time. She did show off her ability to open and close her mouth a few times by yawning, I think that we were boring her actually....hee hee. There is a small cyst on her head that the doctor believes will go away on its own before she is born. As a precaution, we will be scheduling another ultrasound in a few months to take a quick look at it again. However, our doctor is not concerned about it at all. He was in such great spirits that he couldn't help him self from joking with us about Curt having a girl and about my fast delivery...even joking that he was going to pitch a tent at the hospital to wait for us!
Baby C had her own way communicating with us that she is healthy and doing well:
(If you can't see, she is holding up two fingers in a "peace sign".)
