Update at 21 weeks...

I had my Ultrasound today and we found out it is a girl! The tech said everything looks good and the due date is still the same (June 9). The Heart Rate was 142-145. She did say my placenta is low. I am not totally sure what that means yet but I have read a few things that say it may just lead to a C-Section. The C-Section is pretty much scheduled already so that wouldn't be a problem. It might explain why my tailbone has been killing me! At my last appointment on Thursday I measured right on at 20.5 so I hope all is OK.
When we found out it was another girl I was just relieved to know one way or the other. I had figured it might be another girl with how big my rear end has gotten and how sick I was at the beginning. Andy was a little disappointed and is scared to be so out-numbered! I do feel bad that he won't have a boy to carry on the Anderson name and do Scouts with and all that stuff he did with his Dad but he said he is excited to get involved with whatever the girls do! Andy said "oh..2 boyfriends..."

We won't have to repaint the nursery and hopefully most of Sammy's clothes will work!
Sammy was with us and she got a little bored during the U/S but she actually seems excited to have a sister. She even waved at the baby on the screen. It was cute!
She had originally said it was a boy and we had to name him Fido but for the last 2-3 weeks she has said it is a princess sister. She was right.
She was more excited about talking to my belly tonight so that was cute.
My belly has expanded quiet a bit this week but I am not up for a belly picture to be posted...

The tech gave us actual x-ray looking films so they didn't scan very well. But here it is. Baby Girl Anderson #2!



Wow 2 girls... 2 weddings... : )

Gladiator Ready

This is just a little funny story about Sammy. I have no pictures but video would have been great. Last night Andy had the TV on in the background while he was playing picnic with Sam in the family room and American Gladiators came on. Well Sammy and Andy ended up enthralled in the show. Next thing I know I hear Andy yelling Sam you can not kick Daddy in the head. She is laying across him--up on his neck practically. So I mentioned we may not want to let her watch anymore. She then yelled, "Tackle Daddy"....Well it continued. Sammy would say "awe" every time it went to commercial and she was so excited when it would come back on. Andy let her stay in the family room with him to watch it until 8 pm. We try to get her in bed at 8 usually... So we finally got her to head upstairs after the show. As she started up the stairs she said something about "the pyramid" and then laid down, went limp, and proceeded to slide back down the 3 stairs she had climbed... Then she got to the bathroom to get her vitamin and her teeth brushed and Daddy asked her to go get the wash cloth to wash her face. She looked up at him and said tell me go. Andy said On your marks get set go... she didn't move. She then looked up at Andy and said, "Say Gladiator Ready." So for the next 30 min we played Gladiator get past the Mommy to get to her room and everything we wanted her to do had to be proceeded with "Gladiator Ready." OH BOY! And this is my princess!
