It's a GIRL!!!

We are so excited to announce that we are having a little baby girl! This past Friday we went in for my 19th week appointment and got to see her moving around a bunch on the sonogram! I was so thrilled to hear that the doctor said everything looked great! Check out a few of the pictures below. The first one shows a picture of her "girl parts" and little legs. The second one is a profile picture, but it's a little hard to make out because she was moving so much and she kept putting her hand in front of her face. I guess she didn't feel like posing today! The third picture is cool because you can see her spine pretty clearly.

We have decided to name her Laila Schuck! After choosing the name mainly because we think it is really pretty and it has my maiden name in it, we found a couple of different meanings....dark-haired beauty, dark-skinned beauty, or born at night. We'll see if the meanings hold true! No matter what her name may mean though, my main prayer is that she will be beautiful on the inside as well as the outside! We haven't picked a middle name yet, so if you have any good ideas, let us know! Since finding out we are having a girl, I've already gotten excited and been busy thinking of ideas for her room. I can't wait to get started on it in the next few months. It's hard to believe I'm almost to the halfway point of my pregnancy. I am so excited to meet her and hold her in my arms! The smile hasn't left Nate's face since finding out we're having a girl! He keeps saying she'll be "Daddy's little girl"!
