Today we went into the doctor for the big ultrasound appointment. I was so determined not to find out what we were having. Once we got in there and he started taking these shots of the face, it was so hard not to know, and then he was getting pictures of the spine, and I was planning on not looking, but was too interested to look away. Once I didn't see anything to suggest boy, I just told him to tell me, and I was right to think it's A GIRL!! I have been feeling this way for a lot time, only because I was so sick in the beginning, haven't experienced leg cramps, my face keeps breaking out, and their heart beats at appointments were much different. We feel so lucky to have one of each, and for this little girl to be healthy and on schedule with development. It is crazy to change our frame of mind now to a girl though. Even at the appointment, we kept referring to the baby as a he or boy, and the ultrasound tech was like, "Not he, SHE!" It will take some getting use to and it is time to do some shopping I suppose!
Here she is, I love her mouth and nose so much, you can see the umbilical cord on the left.
All five fingers were present on both hands, she loved having them right by her face. So Sweet!I think she and Thomas are very similar in looks, but what do you think?? The only difference I see is Thomas' nose kind of scoops up, and our little girls just is straight, she also looks to have a bigger bottom lip. Anyways, fun to look at. Here are 2 of Thomas at 20 weeks.

Ashley, I am so excited for you guys!! Congratulations on the girl. She looks cute! :)
How EXCITING!! One of each. How fun. And what fun pics--3D! I don't blame you for wanting to find out. There's no way I could have gone in and not asked. Her little face shape is so cute. You are going to have so much fun getting ready for a little girl! And Thomas will be such a good big brother. YEAH!! Congrats! And you look FABULOUS!!!
Congrats! That is so exciting one of each. The pictures they took look great our little boy would not stop moving and his hands were always in his face. The picture of you looks beautiful too -I love your hair! Congrats again!
Wowzer and Yoohoo!I think she is cute too, but her coloring is a little off :). You look soo cute that I had to show you off to all of my co-workers! Congratulations. Love you guys. We will have to have Ruth E. start picking out her Disney Princess name!
Wow Ashley you look good! I loved my 3-d pics, Jason thought they looked weird but I guess only a Mom can look at a little skeleton profile and fall in love, and think it's the most beautiful baby ever.So yeah I see your little girl's 1st pic and think she is so cute :0) She's perfect. Again with my cheesy-ness, she is a little miracle only for you and Nolan that nobody else could have made.What a blessing and what a lucky girl! I'm happy for both of you and so excited for Thomas. Having one of each is so much fun. HARD, but fun.
Love ya and take care.
Yea for girls! I told you you'd be able to tell if it wasn't a boy. After having that thing stare you in the face for so long, you definately know when it's missing! She does look alot like Thomas. She will be darling and I'm sure not wierd looking. Remember- you're the one that hinks baby girls are ugly! Now I'll wonder if you are lying to me when you'll tell me Hallie's cute... Just kidding. Lets make you some bows! Congrats! BTW- Jacki is totally prego- she's having another boy, due in Sept. also!
Congrats! How fun to have one of each! Any names picked out yet? I wouldn't be able to be surprised either, so don't feel bad. You can barely tell you are pregnant! I am really happy for you guys!
Congrats! I am so excited you are having a girl! Girls are SOOO much fun! You look great, and she's adorable. I can't wait to meet her. You're already half way there. YAY!
Hey you 3,
I am really excited for you guys. I hope you are having a good pregnancy, Ashley! Have fun going girl-stuff-shopping!
She is really cute - amazing, how exact the pictures are!
WOW! A GIRL! Nolan got it right way before Darin did! Way to go Nolan! Boys are great though. I'm glad you get to experience a girl. They are so much different. Way to go guys!
You don't look pregnant, you look like you ate too much for dinner! You tiny thing! I am so excited!! Girls are fun!! I know you kinda wanted two boys in a row, but now if you have a 3rd you really won't care what it is! We need to chat! My sister leaves tomorrow and then I don't have any more company, so we can play!! Congrats and start thinking of some girl names. I liked the ones you mentioned!
YEA!!! I am so excited you guys are having a girl. I love those 3D pictures. SHE and Thomas look pretty similar to me but it is kind of hard to tell from those pictures. haha It is amazing though to see a baby look like a real person that early on. I was so excited when you told me you found out. It made my day!! love you guys
Alright! Chalk one up for the girls! Little girls are so fun to shop for. And I love the fact that you don't look any bigger than I do, and I'm not even pregnant. Sigh. Congrats!
That's so exciting you're having a little girly! I'm glad you found out! And by the way, you don't even look pregnant missy.
I am so excited for you! I love the 3D ultrasound. I'm determined to find an OB here that does that. Do you have any names picked out?
Ash and Nolan...we are so excited for you. How fun to have a boy AND a GIRL!!! The 4D ultrasounds are so cool, you can really kind of see what your baby looks like.
P.S. You look super cute!!! Would never guess that you are half way to baby #2.
Yay harpers! We're so excited for you guys. Bring on the shopping!!! Well we have a blog but I haven't dare post anything yet. I'mnot sure I am ready for the blogging life. Check back soon I'll post something. Congrats again!
Oh my goodness, congratulations!! Girls are SO much fun. But who am I to say, I am a little bias! That will be nice to have one of each!! Also, did you get a special ultrasound? That is pretty high-tech.
So cute! I am glad you found out, because I thought all along that it was a girl! and it would have killed me not to know, so as you can tell I will never have a surprise! You look so good. I am so excited for you. I think they look alot alike, those ultrasounds are awesome. I only had one like that at 9 weeks so you couldn't tell any difference.
Congratulations!
It will be great having another girl cousin on the Harper side! We are so happy for you.
YAY!!! Congratulations--our girls will be less than a year apart (they could room at college just like us), and she will always love having a big brother! Who knows, maybe she'll end up marrying one of his friends :) Sooooo happy for you--thanks for sharing the good news (i didn't want you to keep it a secret!)
Congratulations! I hope someday I can hear those words!! Its a girl. How exciting. We need some expert advice in our family how to have girls. We have one little niece in our family out of 6! Do you have any names picked out?
liz
oh ya I love the ultrasound pictures
Ashley, congrats!! I won't lie I am totally jealous, I really want a girl, not that I don't love my boys, but girls are so much fun and a little less high energy. She will be adorable!
You are gonna love it! Girls are so fun, she's going to be so beautiful!
Steph
I'm so excited to soon have another granddaughter! She looks so cute! I love her already. You are looking very cute at 20 weeks!
