U/S Update
We had our big U/S today! Everything looked great. We have to go back in 2 weeks for them to check the stomach-it was measuring small which ironically is the exact same thing that happened with Jackson and everything was fine so I am feeling good that everything is fine here too. Heartrate was 150 and baby is 9 oz (45th percentile). And.....
It's a girl! We are so excited. I started to cry. I don't know why I was so emotional, but it was a really emotional moment for me. I can't wait to have a little girl and her brothers (especially Anthony) are SO happy.

WOOOT! Congrats! How exciting!
Congrats, Amy! I am so excited for you (and the boys! My Jackson is so excited to have a baby sister, so I can just imagine how Anthony is!).
She'll have to make sure any dates she brings around will be big brother approved.
You won't have to worry too much about the teen years, haha - she'll have two brothers to scare all the boys off!
Have you decided on a name?
Congrats Heidisean on your girl too! That is so great and I am glad your U/S went well!
E-Anthony was so cute, when I went to pick him up at the sitters I told him he was having a sister, and his eyes got really wide and his smile lit up the room and he squealed, "A sister?!" and started jumping around-it was really cute.
We decided a little ways back that we wanted to honor our mothers using their first initials, my mom being J and his mom being C. So we came up with 3 names we both agree on. I am not sure at this point which we will pick b/c we like them all-we also tossed out the idea of waiting until she is born and seeing which fits her. Not sure if one will jump out more as the days go on...They are Charlotte Jane, Caroline Joy and Julianne Claire.
Well you certainly cannot go wrong with ANY of those. They are all gorgeous.
What's funny is you have so many names on your list that we considered because they are family names! Jane (MH's grandma), Caroline (my great grandma), Julianne (Julia is my mom's name) and Claire is my middle name that is a nod to my grandfather who is Clarence. You have good taste, obviously.
And my heart just melts at Anthony - our boys are at a good age to have a baby sister, I think!
Great minds think alike right? We do already both have adorable Jacksons.
I think Anthony and Jackson are the perfect age. He literally dotes on babies he comes in contact with. One of his classmates has a little sister who is 9 months. Everyday he runs up to that little girl and greets her and tickles her feet, etc. I can't wait to see him with his sister.
And god help the boys her age in my town. It is a fairly small town so I don't think she'll ever be able to date with her two older brothers on watch-I can just see it already! LOL

45th percentile is her overall size not her stomach. Her stomach was measuring small but they didn't give me a percentage for that.
We actually aren't far away from each other---too funny!
