First let me start off saying my last pregnancy we did not find out the sex of the baby. It was a huge surprise when our baby girl was born, because everyone thought I was having a boy. The reason we decided to find out this time is for practical purposes. Such as, do we keep Lyla's clothes or give them away? What kind of room should we get ready for this baby? The free time I use to have just doesn't exist, more time is essential to get ready for this next one.
Yesterday was Ben's birthday (my husband) and we went in for a morning ultrasound appointment. I am measuring exactly at 20 weeks and the baby is 11 ounces. I kindly asked the ultrasound technician not tell us the sex of the baby and please write it down for us. She said she wrote it down on back of the photo in the envelope. She told us, it's never 100% accurate. I wanted to find out later that evening for his birthday dinner. Just to make it that much more special.
So to finally get to the point. We went to his favorite restaurant, Nobu sushi in Solana Beach. We sat at the sushi bar and waited to open up the envelope until we ordered our first round of food. We then open up the envelope and look on the back for the writing and there was no writing! We both looked at each other so shocked. Then we turned it around and in little tiny typing we see the word GIRL!!!!!!!!!
Lyla is going to have a baby sister. We are very happy!

Ben good luck, there's going to be a LOT of estrogen flowing through that house.
I am super happy for you and your family.

Howie, It will be good for Ben. I hope you get a girl next! You have no idea how wrapped around their finger you will be once you have a daughter.
Regina, I'm sure there will be other opportunities. Thank you!
Franz, I'm counting the days to when you guys are next. 8-) It's going to be crazy here very very soon!
Congratulations to all of you!!
