It's a Boy AND It's a Girl!!

Here are the Ultrasound pics from our last appointment:

It's a Boy:

It's a Girl:

Our Ultrasound and Doctor's appointment was last Thursday, January 29th. We knew there was a "slight" chance that we might be able to find out the sex of the babies. As she was taking measurements of Baby A, I could tell Tony was getting a little anxious. He said several times "I guess it's just to early to tell, huh?" and she would respond with "I don't know, I haven't gotten there yet." She was very methodical and went through and pointed out every little thing to us. Once she was done with all her measurements, she was able to get a pretty good shot of Baby A and said that it's a girl! Yay! She then went through the same process with Baby B and as you can tell by the picture, It's a Boy! :) So at 16 1/2 weeks, we were able to find out the news we were hoping for - we're having a litle girl and a little boy - how perfect!

After the ultrasound, we met with my doctor briefly and she said that based on the preliminary report, everything looked great. They were able to do the full anatomy scan on everything except their hearts because it was still a little too early for that. So, at our next ultrasound, all they'll do is get the measurments and pictures of their little hearts and make sure all is well. Our next appointment is February 25th.

Here are a couple more ultrasound pictures. The first one is of our little girl giving us the "thumbs up" - too cute! The next two are profile pictures of each of the them. They were both breach (head's up) and facing my back instead of my stomach. There's still plenty of time and room for them to move around and get into the proper positions - they'll monitor that more closely as I get into the 3rd trimester.
