It's a...

I am officially at the halfway mark of this pregnancy!  One of the special parts of reaching 20 weeks, is the chance to look at baby through an ultrasound.  With Joshua, our ultrasound was entirely done in 2D.  This time, we had the ultrasound in 4D.  While it's still a surreal experience to see your baby in 2D, it's even more fun seeing your baby in 4D!  We got to see a more realistic picture of our baby, as well as see each movement that was made...pretty cool!  It looks like we'll have another thumb-sucker, as Baby Dos couldn't get enough of that thumb.  All of Dos' organs and bone structures looked great, and Dos weighed in at 10 ounces.  Based on the measurements, it looks like we're sticking with the due date of January 18th.  Here are some pictures from the ultrasound (you'll see the face on the right-side of the first two pictures):




Okay, so I guess we can stop referring to this little one as Baby Dos because we now know that we are having a................................GIRL!!!  Come January 2012, Lord willing, we will welcome Makayla Joy Grundstrom to the household of crazy : )  I, honestly, had a feeling it was going to be a boy.  Andrew, on the other hand, made it two-for-two in the baby predicting department.  He's like the baby psychic or something. We are thrilled with this latest news, as are the grandparents.

Here is a picture of the 20 week baby bump:
