She's a Girl!

Just what we were hoping for! The ultrasound on Wednesday, with no uncertainty, indicated that Little Baby Sexton is a girl! All along we were hoping for a girl to be our first baby and even began our baby shopping in Peru and bought very cute outfits for a baby girl.


The funniest thing happened during the ultrasound. As the technician was showing us the telltale anatomy (or lack of) of our baby girl, she then began to pee! Right there on the big-screen of the ultrasound, I saw a splash of water jet on out of the baby! This lasted for a few seconds, and the technician said she hardly ever gets to see a pee episode on the ultrasound!

Dad gave me a very nice tip once we bring home our baby - he said he learned of this from super daddy Michael Saunders. I read a lot about tummy time and the importance in the first month for neck muscle development for the quickly growing head - I heard from Dad that Mike would do tummy time every day with the baby on his tummy, tummy to tummy. I'm looking forward to that moment - what a great way to bond with the baby - after all, I won't get in on any feeding time.

Kathy and I are now thinking about names!

Love to all family and friends who might be still reading this!
