And the verdict is...

Last night I could barely sleep because all I could think of was how this baby's gender was going to completely change the dynamic of our family. We would no longer be even, it'd either be chick flicks or action movies...

I woke up this morning and started drinking my ridiculous amounts of water and as soon as we dropped Spencer off at school I had to pee. So I did. They say don't "void" but whatever, if I drank a quarter as much water as they want you to drink, my bladder will still be full 2 times over. We dropped Tatey off with my friend Rachel, I peed, then headed to the clinic. I checked in, I peed, then my name was called.

Our tech was Tony, a very nice fellow indeed. He started to look around and the first thing the baby did was shake it's bum around. Hilariousness. Moments later he found where there would or would not be parts and in a matter of moments we knew!

Our tech continued looking and the entire time our little baby squirmed and kept opening it's mouth and yawning. It was the coolest thing to watch. Tate & Spencer moved during their ultrasounds, but the movement was not as detailed - more like random kicks, but we got to sit and watch this baby stretch it's neck and squirm and try and eat the placenta. It was so amazing.

We also found out that we could get a copy of the video, something we weren't aware of with the first two. BUT they did manage to track down Tatum's video from over 2 years ago and they're gonna attempt to get that one to us too. We'll have them next week! I'm so excited to sit and watch them over and over...

Oh, by the way, it's a girl. ;)
