What Is It?

We had our anatomy scan and.......it's a GIRL!! They guessed as much at the 13 week scan, but they also told us not to go out and buy any pink just yet. This ultrasound was definite, though, and we are going to have a little girl. Everything looked great, which was a relief. After all of the sickness I was a little worried. I would have been happy either way, but I feel very fortunate to have one of each and I will feel even better once she's out and in my arms.

The other exciting thing that happened, besides the inauguration, was that M bought me one of these:

I've never had anything but a "normal" cell phone, so this is a major upgrade. It involved changing carriers, but after asking some friends (thanks Danielle and Karyn) I was convinced that the benefits far outweighed the drawbacks. This thing is so cool I can hardly stand it. What other device will allow you to check your e-mail, Twitter, get on Facebook AND make fake fart noises? Also, I'm pretty sure that this thing is smarter than I am.

I am in love with my phone and I am not ashamed to say it.

I knew it was a girl! I am telling you there is some serious correlation between major morning sickness issues and girls. Congrats on the news! One of each is fabulous. ;-)
And congrats on the iPhone, welcome to the addiction. I haven't put mine down since I got it and it's been almost a year and a half!
*hugs*

Congrats on both the iPhone and the little girl. I have one of each and they've both changed my life (in very different ways, of course :-P)

Congrats on the girl; that's very exciting! I had the worst morning sickness of any of my pregnancies and the consensus seems to be that it's because the baby is a girl.

I'm still in the dark ages with my basic cell phone, but yours looks very snazzy -- enjoy!

Yay for girls! They are a lot of fun. :) Congratulations on a great appointment, AND on the new gadget. I am super jealous because my cell phone is ancient and of the rotary dial type.

Kristen said...

Congatulations on the girl! The phone looks super awesome too!

Kate said...

Congratulations, how awesome! I am very curious to read about your experience of raising a girl in comparison to raising a boy. So glad the scan went well. And congrats on the phone. I seriously considered it, but I swore off that service provider five years ago when they majorly f-d up my account, costing me almost one grand, so I simply could not go back to them. So I settled for ipo.d tou.ch and love it (alongside my cheap cell).
