20 Weeks!?! Where Did the Time Go?

We went to the 20 week ultrasound yesterday and found out we are having a little girl! We are so excited! Gavin was disappointed that it wasn't a brother, but we are convincing him that sisters are the coolest! When the ultrasound technician asked him what he thought of it being a girl he said, "not good". :) I couldn't help but laugh through my happy tears! I know he will be a wonderful big brother and I am excited to see him in that role. I am also excited to see Brent be the daddy to a little girl! ;) Here's the proof...
In the Hirschi family there are three of us sister-in-laws due around the same time! And our cousin-in-law (is that a word?) Ginger is due March 27th! Lots of babies in March! After some due date changes Jaimee & Deb are both due on March 6th! Yesterday the ultrasound tech said I am measuring to be due March 5th, but my doctor won't change my due date so it's still March 8th. So he said I could go early. Or maybe he just doesn't know that Brent and I were both big babies & Gavin was good sized at 8 lbs. 8 oz.! So I'm not too surprised that I'm measuring big.
Here's Jaimee & I posing for our 20 week belly shots!
It is so fun to be pregnant together and have someone to talk to who understands! We were pregnant together last time & our boys are 3.5 months apart. We thought that was close! Now this time we are 2 days apart! So fun!

We always feel so cheesy just standing there with our bellies sticking out, so we thought we'd try some different poses & mix it up a little bit!

I don't want to copy Jaimee's post because I saw she posted these pictures too, but I feel the same way! I am so blessed to have a sister-in-law who is also one of my best friends. We have become so close & I am very grateful to have her in my life! Love ya Jaimee!

So I was working on a different post with a bunch of pictures & goings on from the past few months, but after having the ultrasound & finding out what we're having I had to post about that! So I am writing this in hopes that it will push me to finish that one & get it posted (it's really big!) So check back soon! :)
