It's a......

GIRL!!!!!!

Yes, we are two very excited parents to be! (Let me clarify, we would have been excited for a little boy too!) We may have been leaning to little girl & yes we are BOTH thrilled to welcome our little Maude Elizabeth to our home.  We were able to "sneak" a peek a few days before our scheduled ultrasound appointment thanks to my mom & her connections at work.  Jacob had a little talk with the little one before hand and promised ice-cream if she co-operated & showed us the goods so to speak.  Lucky for us she listened to her daddy.  We got some amazing pics of her, which is good because she didn't want to play so much for the regular ultrasound.  Granted it was 8 am and a bit early to show off her skills. (She is so my child....mornings just aren't the best for us!)   She will get another shot in a few weeks so the Dr can get the measurements they need.  For now we are extremely happy to know that she is healthy & all developing as she should!!!!!
