It's a GIRL!

We are so excited and happy to announce that we are having a baby girl! We got to see her last Thursday at our ultrasound- she is adorable!

We will go ahead and let you know the first name we've decided on: Laurel. We agreed upon that awhile ago, it was something we both liked! We'll come up with a middle name soon, too. :)
