Praise the Lord, no chromosomal abnormalities were detected. Since I do not gamble, I do not keep up much with odds. At first the odds were 1 in 200, then 1 in 2000, then less than 1% of all pregnancies. It was difficult not to say "just get on with it!" They asked all kinds of questions. Even one for if Woody & I were related. My goodness, no!
The ultrasound was very detailed, looking at the bones, the heart, the hands and face, every part they could do. The baby was in a breech position (prayer for the baby to turn before delivery!). The baby was also crossing legs with a foot in the place to look. After "buzzing" the baby to get it to move, and taking a second look, the ultrasound technician believes that she has come up with the gender. In lieu of seeing male parts and believing to see the 3 magic lines, she says it must be a little GIRL.
We are so happy for the healthy news for the little girl baby. The special comment of the day from Woody was due to the fact that he will now be very much outnumbered. He stated, "I'm gonna have to buy a dog" meaning another male member of the family will need to be purchased!

Sherri, Woody, and Natalie,
Congratulations!!! 2 girls ROCK! Natalie, you are going to be such an awesome big sister, and God has given you a friend for life. What fun you girls will have playing together!
It is fun to think one day they will have bunk beds together, and hopefully, Natalie won't have the big sister attitude that keeps her from playing with her little sister.
Sherri, What great news!! I'm so excited for you to find out your baby is strong and healthy. Such a blessing. I'm caught up on your latest posts and I'm glad to know that Natalie and Philip share some qualities: stubbornness and not wanting to color! I thought it might just be him! See you Thursday.
