What a shock we received when the doctor told us it was a girl! We both had so wrapped our minds around having another boy. I'm surprised he was able to proceed with the ultrasound because I kept giggling and looking at Jason in amazement saying "a daughter". As the doctor measured and checked on all the baby's organs my mind was flooded with thoughts of little dresses, tights, and pink hair bows. We are so thankful to God for a healthy, growing baby. Depite the fact people have been telling me I look small, the baby is just the right size for 20 weeks (about as long as a football). It has been 60 years since there was a girl born to the Paine side of the family so this is going to be fun!

Congratulations! Having pink in the house is so much fun but it is really hard to go shopping and avoid buying anything. Guard your credit card!! Glad to hear everything is going well.

Yay for a little GIRL!!! I was leaning towards boy also. I hope the ultrasound was right. It's not nice to play with a woman's mind of all the cute things you can put your daughter in. Thank God also that she looks healthy. Congrats on your daughter!!!

YAY!!!! Congratulations! We are so thrilled for the three of you to be adding a little pink bundle to your family. So excited! Olivia's reaction was a big scream and claps and then said, "Does this mean I will have a GIRL cousin?" So excited to meet her already! And if we find out that we are having a boy, I will have a ton of cute clothes you are welcomed to borrow.
