He's A HE (And Is Already So Handsome)!

I am now in my 23rd week of pregnancy, and last week we finally had our '20' week ultrasound. It was wonderful! First, it's a BOY! Sure, it's a little less economical (already being fully stocked with girl's clothes, that is), but we are totally thrilled. Mya is VERY excited too--and since we told her that she's getting a baby brother, she has stopped calling the baby 'Peaches'--so that's a good thing!


Our little guy was very wiggly, and kept hiding his head under my belly button (thus the shadows on his head).


The 3D ultrasounds is so amazing--I can't get over the cool technology that let us see our baby like this!


His cute little profile


And there it is ladies and gentlemen--his little boy part! (I actually wasn't too sure about this shot... but you'll just have to trust me that we saw a couple of much clearer shots of the area--and he's definitely a boy! He was just moving around too much to get a better picture proving it.)

More importantly than knowing the sex (although it is really fun to know, and to call the baby "he" rather than "it"), we learned that he is a very healthy baby so far, and is developing just as he should. All of his organs, limbs, features, etc. measured right on, and we couldn't be happier about it! The due date is still set for July 1st for now. Now we just need a good name... and a bed and some blue stuff....

  2. Congrats! Those 3D pictures are awesome! As weird as it sounds, I think he looks like Alex! You can see his features so well, that I actually saw Alex in him! :) We are so excited for you guys! Boys are so fun, now you'll get to play with trucks, dinosaurs, balls and they love to wrestle! (at least Cole does) We can't wait either, to spend some time with you on the 20th. That is if that date still is on! Mya will be such a good big sister!
