Ultrasound...

It seems that little Emily Faith is already a "Corley". Corleys are extremely stubborn people, and she gave us the run around on finding all of her important "parts". She wanted NOTHING to do with being bothered. She was perfectly fine in the spot that she had found, and was rather irritated that we were spying on her. Finally, the Tech said that she was 80% sure that we had a girl on our hands. I asked her that if she were to buy me something for the baby, what color would it be. She said, "Pink." That was all I needed to hear.

They tell you to drink a ton of liquid before your ultrasound. Being the over-achiever that I am, the Tech that performed the ultrasound made me get up and go to the bathroom the second that she started. My bladder was 5 times the normal size. I was wondering why it hurt so bad. I just figured that it was all psychological. She made me go a 2nd time because my bladder was filling up so fast! Good grief!

We are so excited that we will have another little girl! I recently bought a "Girly" purse that I really liked, but only because of Aunt Corny. I don't typically take my purse out of the car, but Aunt Corny said that I would need it to double as a diaper bag. She was so certain that we were having a girl that she said she would buy the purse back from me if the baby turned out to be a boy. Tough, Aunt Corny! It's my "girly" purse now!!!

The due date has been changed from 11/27/08 (Thanksgiving Day) to 11/25/08. The other two have been early, but just by a few days, so we'll see! Don't worry, we can still refer to her as "Turkey Baby". I think it's one of those nicknames that will be around for quite some time.

We can't wait for Emily to be born! More than halfway done now!
