Here is what I considered to be the highlight of our baby girl's sonogram over the weekend. She smiled a little bit 
Here's the smile:
So we spent Saturday in Minneapolis to get a 4D sonogram of our little baby-to-be.
It's a girl! The technician made it graphically clear on the DVD no less than four times. I left that part out of the above clip. You don't need to see that.
The technician joked that she's not a very ladylike girl. You know that pose that ice skaters do with their leg way over their head? Well my baby can do that naked.
When we watched it I laughed and then decided we'd only distribute copies to her grandparents (as opposed to the whole family). We wouldn't want to embarrass the little girl even before she's born.
Although her hand was in front of her face, we were still able to see some facial features. We tried and tried to get her to move, and she eventually moved her arm a little bit. The technician kept trying to "see through" the hand to get a clear view of the face...which ended up looking like an indistinguishable mass of flesh in front of her face. Not pretty, but I wasn't any less grateful for the technology. It was pretty neat to take a peek at our little girl in her environment. Fascinating really.
And gosh I feel so much better knowing for sure she's a girl. Now I know for a fact that we'll need to shop. Earlier I joked that we'd just have to dress her in my boy's old clothes, but now that I see the reality of it, I couldn't bear to do that to her. Rest assured that she will be decked in pink, pink pink, whatever it takes. I'm starting to frequent SwapThing.com. It's a neat site.
Another highlight of our one-day trip to Minnesota was the Mall of America. Wow. We spent time there before and after the appointment. That mall is pretty amazing. We got our fill of the mall. I'm over it now. But it's a definite must-see for anyone who likes points-of-interest.
Now what should we name our little girl...hmmmm...I've got a million ideas but still waiting for one of the names to feel right.

I don't know, but I seem to like the letter 'A.'
