Meet Our Girl!



Here are a few pictures from our sonogram. It was so great to see her...and she was rolling around everywhere! She changed positions constantly and kept on doing this backbend thing. It was hilarious! I asked a ton of questions, and the sonographer wanted to know if we had any trouble with previous sonograms. YES! Seeing her little brain without any sign of hydrocephaly like Tracen had was so reassuring. His fluid went away one month before he was born. (God is so great!) I just needed to know the answers to a lot of things after all the weekly visits with him. Because she was all over the place, we got to see her for a long time. We will go back in a month to see if she will be still for some better pictures.

Her name is Mailey Leslie...the Leslie after my sister who passed away when she was 3 months old from complications from Downs. I have always wanted to use her name, and we are so happy we can! Also, Leslie is the name of a dear friend here who was able to come to the sonogram with us. She can just pretend to be family!

So, meet Mailey everyone!

The girls said "What they found out what they are having and they are telling the name"? It worried them that something was wrong because with the others it was top secret. I assured them it was fine just that you changed your mind and wanted to know this time. "A girl can change her mind you know"
