The Ultrasound

Our little dinosaur just became a baby. It was quick, quicker than I'd imagined. She said, it's a girl, and click… she's a baby, she's real. No longer is there just something growing down there but there's someone, someone I already love so much I'm surprised.
Someone with adorable 3 cm long feet and legs that aren't short little Wiebe legs (yet), with lips that move and hands that wave.

I've seen lots of these ultrasound pictures and they never really mean anything to me, but this one is different, this one is beautiful, because this one is mine. My beautiful Catherine Mae Wiebe "Catie"

  4. That's really exciting! I wouldn't have thought to spell Catie with a 'C', but it's different and cool. I love the middle name too. I can never think of good girl names - it was lucky that we found a couple that we like that we have on our list. You'll love having a girl - it's so much fun!
