We are having....

So our "mini" ultrasound was today. I say mini because it was just a quick one to see how things were doin'. Everything is good. My OB did give us a pretty good idea of what we're having.

We are having a little girl!

I will be getting a more indepth, detailed ultrasound in 3 weeks. My doctor calls it "the big ultrasound". You girls know, the one were you have to come to the appointment with a full bladder... but anyway. My doctor said we can buy pink but to keep all our receipts until "the big ultrasound" She said she's pretty positive it's a girl.
It's odd, I never did totally buy into the "mother's intuition", but a week ago I had a dream we were having a girl. I didn't think anything of it then but I am now! Oh and the Chinese Birth Calendar is worthless, according to the Chinese we are supposed to be having a boy! We now are training ourselves to say "she" instead of "it" or "the baby" when referring to the pregnancy.
We are pretty set on the name Oaklee for her. Ha, her - that's so weird to say!
Needless to say we're excited.
