It's a BOY!!

It is confirmed, although I've been pretty positive since February that Baby #3 is a boy!  It is clear as a bell and along with being cooperative with showing his gender, he gave me a real treat.  As the technician was measuring his length, I saw one of his little hands come up to his face.  He spread all 5 fingers and I saw his little jaw bone drop as he poked around until he got his thumb in his mouth.  Honestly one of the most precious things I have ever seen in my life.  The feeling of seeing your child for the first time (in an ultrasound anyway) never gets old; never gets boring.  I have to admit that with my new job position and two active, young kids at home, I really haven't thought much about this little guy.  Seeing him move and seeing all of his body parts, albeit very small, have made it very real for me again.  I love it and I can't wait until Ethan and Maddy can really grasp the concept of what is going on inside of my body and how this little guy will be a huge gift to all of us.  We don't have a name yet, but stay tuned.  We may even post a few names we are tossing around on this blog and ask for your help!  Please continue to pray for his health and development...he looks perfect so far.

  2. That is so awesome. Even now Steve and I marvel and how Jackson's profile looks just like his profile from our ultrasounds (I mean that sounds like a "duh" but it's strange). To think our little man was just hanging out in there for 9 months and we didn't even know who he was yet...kinda strange but soo amazing:) You're almost halfway there! Yipee!
