It's a....

if you don't want to know the gender of our baby STOP READING NOW! Jason and I just had our "big" ultra-sound this past Friday and after much deliberation and anguish :) we decided to find out the gender of this babe. IT'S A BOY! and, even more importantly, a very HEALTHY BOY! What a true blessing! We could see his little heart, brain, legs, arms, belly, face...he's completely perfect. We also were able to have a 3-D ultra-sound. It was amazing to see his face so clearly. He's "hiding" behind the placenta, so we were only able to see half his face, but I still think he's darn cute! I've attached a few pictures. Enjoy and thanks again for all the prayers. Please keep praying that this little guy continues to grow into a healthy strong baby.

His arm -- my cousin was the ultra-sound tech and she wrote "hi grandma!"


This is his face. You can see his nose and one eye...


This one he has his hand up by his face. His hands were by his face almost the entire time. See, he's darn cute already!


This is a "full" body shot. The head is on the left and it goes all the way to his toes. You can see the spine at the bottom of the picture.
