Ultrasound

I never thought the day would come, but we had our mid-pregnancy ultrasound yesterday. It was amazing. I was so nervous/excited. I had fully prepared myself for the chance that we wouldn't be able to find out but I was not prepared for the news we got. It's a BOY! Everyone (myself included) thought it was a girl. I thought I'd be more disappointed, but I'm totally thrilled. I think at this point it doesn't matter. So we have ourselves a handsome little man...mommy and daddy are both on cloud 9. Daddy is already planning all the Packers stuff he's going to buy.

I did get a call from the doctor today. They said everything looked good but they didn't get enough pictures of the heart. At first I was freaking out, I was almost in tears. But I called Troy and posted on my baby board and I am much calmer now. This is a lot more common than I thought, and other than showing off his boy bits, he was a very stubborn baby yesterday. His little bottom was nuzzled in my right hip, the tech said he was literally as far into my hip as he could be and refused to move! I rolled from one side to another, I walked around, I even peed and he still wouldn't budge. The other thing I got to thinking was if it was something serious they would want me in right away. They're waiting until March 5th when I have my glucose test. They'll do a real quick ultrasound while I'm waiting to have my blood drawn just to check the heart again.

The tech said he has really long legs. His legs were measuring at 22 weeks and I'm only 20 and a half weeks. He's going to be tall like daddy too! Anyway, here's the best ultrasound pictures we got.
