IT'S A BOY!

On January 19th I had my 20 week ultrasound....and we were both surprised to find out we are having a baby boy!  My sister has two girls, and Jared's brother had a girl, so it will be the first grandson on both sides of our families, so we're excited.  However, the best news was to hear that our baby looks healthy and is growing well.

I am now exactly 22 weeks and 4 days pregnant, no longer fit into any of my pants (except for scrubs for work), and I am feeling the baby move every day.  We had a tough time coming up with boy names, but Gavin is the name we're pretty set on.  It's not set in stone yet, so we'll have to wait and see if  our minds change over the next 4 and a half months.

Here are the first few of many more baby pictures to come!!!!  You may not agree, and may have difficulty even distinguishing some of the pictures, but both Jared and I happen to think we have the cutest baby boy!  (and of course we're not at all bias!)

Here's looking straight down at his face 
(his foreheads to the left)

Baby's arm
 (I'm pretty sure that's also part of a leg to the right)

Baby's leg
(we saw him kick during the ultrasound!)
(In this one his tummy and arm are to the left)

And lastly... Proof that we're having a baby boy!

I think he's beautiful-and I'm not biased either. We're so grateful that he is healthy and you are too.

It kinda seems like reading tea leaves, but I trust the science. I'm just thrilled that he is healthy and kicking....and so cute.
