It's a girl :)

Hooray :) 

The McKeown family received wonderful news August 15th that we are having a baby girl due around Christmas 2014. We are very excited :) I have to admit my guess was boy and Ryan's was girl. It was a wonderful surprise and we found out via cupcake! 

Here are some belly progression photos. I think the light pink shirt hides some of the bump, but she is growing beautifully. Her due date was originally the 23rd but it may be closer to the 28th, so the 'week' estimates may be a week off. Oh well :) 

15 weeks, aka the size of an apple! 

18/19 weeks, aka the size of a bell pepper/ heirloom tomato!

21 weeks, size of a carrot!

Here are some amazing photos from the ultrasound. She was measuring right on target and weighed around 12 ounces. These are taken during week 20 (though the machine says 21), aka the size of a banana!

Leg and foot

Her spine

An awesome profile

Whole body shot :) She is comfortably upside down

Baby loves loves loves to kick. She is more of a kicker than Jocelyn. I am also a bit bigger this time around, which is fun because I get to wear comfy pregnancy clothes that much sooner.

We had a little 'reveal' by ordering cupcakes that had a color inside for the gender. We had the results in an envelope that we gave to the baker and did not look at beforehand. It was hard to wait but very fun in the end! Thanks everyone for all the happy wishes on our girl power family :) 

We borrowed this photo idea for Auntie Colleen and family. J was jazzed to show off her new purple boots, and I had these little shoes from years ago that just surfaced. Here are feet by baby and J!

Let's zoom in on these sparkly boots! Come on :) 

Jocelyn's current favorite dress. This lady lives in them!
Baby has quite the collection she will inherit.
