Well the last few post have been from Tina so I thought I would post one today. We received confirmation from another Ultrasound tech that our baby is a girl. This is indeed earth shattering news. Let me give you some background on my side of the family. My brother has 3 boys. I have four cousins with a total of 8 boys and 1 girl. So as a family we have 11 boys and 1 girl. Our daughter will be girl #2.
The numbers are in the guys favor, but come April I will be out numbered in my house. Tina's dad had a saying that "it takes a real man to have a girl." I am not sure I am any more a man then my father, my brother or anyone else in my family, but I can humbly say that I am Olivia's daddy and she will be my little girl.
Our next big to do will be a fetal echocardiogram which we will have done in early January by a Riley Children’s Hospital Pediatric Cardiologist. This is the last major test that we will have done. The reason for this test is due to our age and is a normal test ran on babies with old farts for parents. We were able to see the 4 chambers of Olivia’s heart as part of the December 1 ultrasound and everything looked good. The Riley Doc will be able to look at the valves to make sure there are no defects. I marvel at the technology that allows us to see this.
As we approach the Christmas season let me just take this time to say GO NAVY BEAT ARMY. Please keep our service men and women in your thoughts and prayers.
