We Found Out!!!!!

Today Jordan and I found out the sex of our baby! We have been very eager to know and have been anticipating this day for a long time. Even from last night, we both were tossing and turning in bed just out of the excitement we knew the following day would bring. Jordan had to go into work for the early morning because his work wouldnt let him have a full day off of vacation. So he still got up around 5:50ish and headed out to put in a couple hours before coming home. He kissed me goodbye and left me to go back to sleep. Unfortunately I wasnt able to! I just lay there on my side having a million and a half thoughts running through my head.... "I hope it's a boy, cause then the rest will have an older brother. Plus my mom just had Wyatt a few years ago so I kind of know what to expect......But it would be so great to have a girl. She would wrap Jordan around her little finger and dance around the house." I probably laid there for an hour and a half before deciding I should get up and have some breakfast, shower and prep up for the big day ahead. The ultrasound was scheduled at 10:30 with a regular checkup right there after at 11:45. Jordan and I were planning on getting our cars oil changed after that as well as beginning to pack up our apartment for our move. We are also signing the paperwork to purchase the apartment for a year lease later on tonight. It was going to be a very busy day. I had finished my morning routine and was sitting watching Oprah when I got a phone call from Jordan. "Hey babe, there's a little problem."
"What?" I asked assuming the worst.
"Ken wants me to drop off some prints on my way out of here so I might be just a little bit later than we had planned. I should still be able to pick you up and head over to the doctors in time for the ultrasound."
Originally I had assumed much worse but this was only a minor snag. I told him that we needed to be there by 10:25 at the latest and he assured me that we would make it. I sat around for another 25 minutes and then got another phone call from Jordan.
"Hey babe, another problem....I was heading down the Elgin Ohare expressway when a car hit its breaks really hard infront of me. I rear ended the guy and it looks like the car is going to have to be towed."
"Are you okay?! What happened?"
"Well, it was all really stupid, the ugly white Saturn SC2 jammed on his breaks for absolutely no reason and I was too close to come to a complete stop behind him. His car is completely wrecked with the exception of his engine. His engine still runs perfectly fine and he certainly didnt throw a rod or anything like that. But I cant really talk right now babe, I will get this thing taken care of over here and then get a taxi to get me over to the doctors."
"Are you sure you are okay?"
"Yeah, Im fine, just a stupid mistake."
"Ok honey, I will tell them to wait until you get there."
I then headed off to the doctors and proceeded to tell them the dilemma we were in. They told me that they were actually pretty booked up and would do the best that they could but if we wanted to, we could reschedule. I knew that Jordan would be upset if we didnt find out today so I decided that we could go through with it and he may just show up a little late into it. The whole process takes about 45 minutes to do so I assumed he would be there for a part of it.
Well, I was called in and they measured me and weighed me and all that hoopla and then they told me to go down to exam room 3. I walked down the hall and finally found exam room 3 but the door was closed. Normally the rooms that are available have the doors open, so I knocked twice and listened. Either someone was delivering a baby or two people were being inappropriate behind that door. I asked a nurse where I should go and she told me (after listening to the door herself) that exam room 4 was where I would be getting my ultrasound done.
I got inside the room and prepped myself for the viewing of the little miracle inside me and lay on my back. I wasnt even in the room 10 seconds when in walked a nurse dressed like a cowgirl. I thought that it was odd at first but then remembered that sometimes doctors come in from their day off or whatever. It wasnt until the nurse started to walk around that I realized she was wearing scuba diving flippers. Every step she took was a loud clap on the floor. I was obviously shocked.
"Um, Im sorry, but are you wearing flippers?" I asked.
"Oh, dont worry. I just use them in the rare case that your water breaks while performing the ultrasound."
She then proceeded to lather up my stomach with peanut butter and took the ultrasound lollipop and rub it all across my belly while watching Fraggle Rock on the monitor. I sat there horrified thinking that some lunatic must have come into the doctors office and taken one of the nurse's hostage. It wasnt until Jordan walked in that I truly knew something was wrong. He came in dressed in a full tuxedo carrying a tray with Jasmine tea and crumpets. The nurse turned to him and said, "Thank you Mr. Bananahammock. She took one of the crumpets dipped it in the peanut butter on my belly and took a bite. Jordan sipped his tea with his pinky raised and winked at the camera.
DOWN IN FRAGGLE ROCK...(BUM BUM) DOWN IN FRAGGLE ROCK!
