drumroll please!

We were so happy to hear from our midwife that our little char siu bao looks healthy from the ultrasound we did earlier this week but we gave our midwife specific instructions not to tell us if it was a boy or a girl!

Instead, we asked if she could write it down on a piece of paper and seal it in an envelope so we could open it when we got home. Gabe kindly came over to capture this moment for us on camera because of course, I had to have it documented!

Jin and I cannot stop laughing at the pictures of our reactions! We are a little embarrassed by our goofy faces but we are overjoyed!

drumroll please!

IT'S A GIRL!

I was completely surprised! (I really thought it would be a boy!)

And Jinny is in BIG trouble (in the best of ways!).
