Little Girl!

We went in for our 2nd trimester ultrasound today and were very surprised to learn that we are having a little girl!!! Jeff and I are still in shock - we just knew we were having a boy and are so used to Lucas that the idea of a baby girl seems strange... but we're very excited! And more importantly, of course, she is healthy. They said she weighed 5 oz and her h/b was 144. I think that is on the low range, so hopefully she'll be laid back like her daddy : )
