It's a......

.....GIRL!!!!

We had our first ultrasound appointment on December 28th! I was 16 weeks and 5 days at the time. It was AMAZING to see our baby girl! All the detail...her little hand waving to us, her feet, spine, and seeing her heart pumping were priceless.

The technician said everything looks great! The baby looks really healthy and so does the placenta! The technician measured the baby and said she was about 7 ounces and her femurs were a little long! She must have gotten a recessive gene because neither Jose nor I are very tall. ha!

After our ultrasound appointment we decided to go to Babies R US to start our registry! Boy was that a long and tired process. So much to get (I don't know where its all going to fit in our house) and so much that as first time parents we don't know. The annoying thing was when I went online to see our registry I was able to see customer reviews for the products we selected...and most of the products got really bad reviews in terms of function or safety for the baby, so I ended up having to switch a lot of the things we registered for.
