So, I just got back from my 20 week ultrasound and I’m so excited to report that we’ll be welcoming a new baby girl into our family!!
EA and MC have been hoping for a girl. Actually MC named her right after my first doctor’s visit. When we came home, she asked us if we knew what the baby’s name was. We told her no. And she said, “Well, I do!”
And then she proudly proclaimed that the baby’s name was “Jenny with a J!”
(Isn’t that a precious face??)
We decided that if we had a girl that we would call her Jenny.
EA, MC, and Will accompanied us to the ultrasound appointment today. And they were able to see first hand that, yes, we do in fact have a Jenny!
Little Miss Jenny is doing great!
Everything looked wonderful on her anatomy scan and she had a very healthy heartbeat.
I can already tell that she is going to be a mover and a shaker…it was hard for the technicians to get pictures of everything they needed because she was moving so much!
I cannot describe the feeling of meeting my little girl today.
I love this little one so much already!
For you formed my inward parts;
you knitted me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Wonderful are your works;
my soul knows it very well.
My frame was not hidden from you,
when I was being made in secret,
intricately woven in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes saw my unformed substance;
in your book were written, every one of them,
the days that were formed for me,
when as yet there was none of them.
Psalm 139 13-16
My heart is overflowing with joy and thankfulness for the wonderful blessings that have been bestowed upon us.
