*Drum Roll...*

Just look at that cute little face...

Well, last week was the big 20 week ultrasound! It was full of anticipation....as excited as I was to see the little nugget, (I haven't had an ultrasound since my very first doctor visit) I was having really bad anxiety over it too. I mean, this is when they check out everything to make sure the baby is developing properly. I was so afraid that they would discover that something was wrong!! But, the doctor said everything looked great....he used that word over and over again. "The heart looks great, the diaphragm looks great, great, great, GREAT!" I told him that was my new favorite word, and that he was free to use it as much as he wanted. The other big news that comes with this visit is that we found out Pink or Blue....and it's Blue! Yep, we're gonna have a little Boy Bell! So here's to all the shopping that is sure to come.....

*The Best Picture I Have EVER Taken!*

This is a picture of my mom opening up her Valentine's Day gift from Matt and me....it was a picture frame for your fridge that says "I *heart* my Grandma" .....and that's how we shared the big news. Isn't this the best darn picture you have ever seen??!?! It couldn't be any more perfect. I love that you can see the sheer excitement on her face, with the tears just about to come on. About .25 seconds after this we were hugging each other and crying like babies, and my dad couldn't even speak he was so emotional. It was the best. I've imagined this day for so long, but it ended up being better than I could have dreamed up. My family is so awesome, and I love my parents so much! I can't wait to try and copy their skills. :)
We find out next wednesday if we have a boy or girl! Well, assuming we have a cooperative child. It wouldn't be all that strange for a child of ours to play tricks and be a bit stubborn, so we'll just have to wait and see! :)
