At first during the ultrasound, our baby's legs were crossed, so we got to look at her little face, feet, and profile. We jiggled my stomach around and she opened her legs just enough to get a peek (she already sits like a little lady!) When the technician was checking, before she could even confirm I saw that it was a girl. I said out loud, "You don't have to tell me, I can tell it is a girl!" She waited a couple of minutes and finally confirmed that it was a girl! I think Jose immediately forgot that he had wanted a boy, because he was smiling just as big! I don't think I stopped smiling for 20 minutes. Jose kept looking at me and laughing, because I kept saying "Yes! I knew it!"
We decided to go out for lunch, and I jokingly mentioned that I wish I knew where Cameron Ingalls new office was so we could ask him to take a couple pictures of us with our camera. 5 minutes later Cameron walked by and was happy to take the pictures!
So how did we tell our families? We asked them to come to dinner, and as they walked in we had them each make a final guess by picking a cookie. It was a tie between girl and boy votes!
I baked Papa Murphys pizza (take and bake) and we were right about to eat, when the Fattes Pizza delivery guy showed up. Everyone was confused why we were getting more pizza. Jose announced the special delivery and opened the pizza boxes on the table. Jesse said "It would have been so cool if the pizza spelled out what they were having." That made Jasen run over to the table to check, and then everyone crowded around the table and read:
We are so excited to know that Aubriella Joy is developing perfectly and is healthy! It was so strange being able to see her features and realize I have a baby inside of me! It was easy to picture the little peanut we last saw, but to see a moving (talk about moving, she did a flip while we were watching!) formed baby was amazing!

You guys are too cute! So creative, I would never think of such a cute way to tell everyone, that is so special.

I came to my computer this morning with the distinct purpose of finding out what you were having! I am so happy for you guys and I also KNEW it was a girl :). You guys are so cute...you do so many cute things surrounding this child and it is obvious how dearly she is already loved. She is truly blessed. I can't wait to see her sweet face.
YAY!!!! I voted for girl! It seems like 80% of my pregnant friends are having a girl! Ada and Aubriella will have to be best friends :)
