It's A Girl!

We had our first ultrasound yesterday and saw our baby for the first time! It was pretty cool. The nurse doing the ultrasound said that she is 98% sure that it is a girl. We will take her word for it and plan accordingly. We have some pretty good pictures from the ultrasound that we might post a little later. We got a good picture of her hands and you can count all 5 fingers. Everything is going well and developing properly, which we are very grateful for. Allison has been doing well, other than a few weeks of nausea. Overall, it hasn't been that bad. She is mainly just tired and can sleep forever. However, she has been doing some running and water aerobics which have helped.

The due date is set for July 11th, which is right in the middle of my (Nate's) internship in Phoenix. I have already talked to Ernst & Young about the situation and they have been really nice about it. I will be able to take a week or two off so I can be with Allison and the baby. The only trick will be getting from Phoenix to Provo in time. We're not sure yet how that is going to work, but we're sure it will.

Anyways, things are going well and we are very excited!
