GIRL!!!!
Cadence Rae Gensmer should be here on or around October 12.
She is a stubborn girl, who had us prodding at her for 10 minutes or so until she'd finally show us her lady parts: now that i think about it, i'm glad for that!
i couldn't believe it when my ultrasound tech told us it was a girl. By the time i was in the ultrasound chair, it seemed like an inevitability that it was a boy. i had lost all hope of a girl, and was actually getting kind of grim. Seems silly now, but i just kept losing hope while Tanya (who it turns out isn't even due for 7 weeks yet, so she's definitely not on maternity leave) was measuring heart beats, head size, arm sizes, and other assorted sizes. And then we almost had to give up trying to find out what kind of baby it was because someone from urgent care needed an ultrasound, but then Cadence shifted ever so slightly, and we got our answer.
A girl. Happy sigh. She is healthy, measures out to about the right timing according to due date, and is very active already. And now i get to dress someone in pink!!!!
i will scan in her U/S pictures tomorrow. i just wanted to let you all know. Have a wonderful night! i know i will!

Congratulations! What fun news. I wanted a boy first and I got a girl, but she's wonderful...
Congratulations. Great news.
I know I already twittered at you, but I wanted to say it here, too:
Congratulations!
Awesome!
I know what you mean about giving up hope before you even give it a chance. When I was pregnant with Ashlyn, I totally prepared myself for hearing "it's a boy!"
I think if I hadn't prepared myself, I would've cried to hear that. As it turned out, I needn't have worried at all. We got our precious little girl!
Yayayay! I'm so glad you're happy :) Happy birthday, too!
Can't wait to see pics.
As for me, I have no idea if I'm growing a boy or a girl. And, at this point, I truly have no preference. I've had a few dreams lately where I had a little boy, so maybe that's a clue? Dunno. <3
Congrats! Um, I think it is a good thing that she doesn't want to flash her "lady parts" so willingly. Less to worry about when she is a teenager. :)
Congratulations! As a mom of two girls, I can honestly say GIRLS ROCK! Not that boys are bad, but there's just something about having a little girl. And watch out ... there's something special between a daddy and his daughter. You'll see! It's super sweet.
Yay! One of each! Congratulations:)
YAY! a girl!!! (Sorry it took so long for me to say congratulations, we were gone for five days.)
I'm so excited for you to be able to have one of each. We're having another girl, but girls are fun! :) YAY! PINK.
