Appointment #4 - It's Not a KITTEN!

I had an ultrasound yesterday. I really didn't understand what I was looking at but the perinatologist was nice enough to point out the femur. I'm pretty sure I saw the head and some feet. Oh, and I saw the spinal column too. The doc made some sort of Outback rib joke. He was alright. Everything looked good he said. My OBGYN concurred. I wasn't too worried - except about giving birth to a puppy or kitten like my dream dictated. The perinatologist also announced that we are having a GIRL! I always get what I want. The Husband was pretty quiet throughout the whole thing but I'm pretty sure he was glad to be there. He's still freaked out about the alien in my belly.

After work yesterday I went to three stores looking for a "Daddy's Little Girl" outfit but there was such a poor selection (I could have just gone to WalMart but The Husband is in the middle of a boycott and since the gift was for him AND the baby, I thought that I should abstain). I saw some cute dresses but I picture my newborn wearing onsies for the first few months. I finally made my way over to KMart where I was able to find a mini basketball and some newborn athletic socks with stripes. It served The Husband's love of basketball while also working in my love of early 90's PJ Harvey a la leopard coat and striped athletic sock days.
