So I finally had my “20-week ultrasound.” I put that in quotes because I’m nearly 25 weeks, and it was the soonest they could schedule me. I don’t have any definite information since the technician is not authorized to say whether everything looks healthy or not, but from what we could see, it looked great. The heart was pumping away and the little guy or girl seemed to be moving around quite a bit. I’ll find out for sure next week at my doctor appointment if everything looks ok.
The technician asked us if we wanted to know the gender, and Mark was strong and said “no.” I said, “so you know?!” And then that was it…we didn’t find out. I’m glad because it’s so fun to be surprised and excited, but I just get so curious. I’m just putting in my guess now…it’s a boy. There, that’s what I think. No real reason for that other than I think she stayed away from waist-down pictures of the little squirt inside. Mark thinks I’m full of it, but I just have to officially post my best guess. Then if I’m right, I can say “I told you so,” and if I’m wrong, then, oh well. 
Any other inclinations from any of you out there?! Many of you had a feeling that Maddie was a girl, and you were right…any revelations for me?!
Oh, one last update in our lives…we signed escrow papers today, so it’s looking like we’ll close mid-next week and move in on Friday, Dec. 12!!! Can’t wait!!!!
