It's a.....

Well, we had our sonogram on Friday and we found out we're having a GIRL!!!
Had you asked us to bet money on what we thought we were having, we would have gone all in on a boy!  So, obviously, the shock was palpable in the sonogram room!  We still look at each other in disbelief and say "we're having a girl!?!?!!"  Now we need to come up with a name!  No thought had even been given to a girl name up to this point, yikes!  Well, at least we have 20 weeks left to decide.. any suggestions?
We are beyond excited and feel blessed beyond measure to be having one of each.  She is the picture of health and so far, every test has come back perfect.
We covet your prayers for continued health for me and this new little girl.  Can't wait to meet her!    
I am posting our ultrasound video.  It starts as a profile with her head on the left facing up.  The scan moves across her body then gives you a quick shot on the right of the girly parts.  (cover your eyes those of you under the age of 18!) :)  Then, as it moves back up the head, you see her face on and see glimpses of her spine and belly.  (I thought I'd give a description since some of these sonograms can be a little tricky to figure out what you're looking at).  Enjoy!!
