Wow!

We had an ultrasound yesterday and they confirmed it was a boy! It was fun watching him wave his hands around and trying to bite his fingers. Definitely different from Aleena's ultrasound; curled up tight and wouldn't budge at all. His cheeks remind me of Aleena's ultrasound picture.

How exciting a BOY! I grew up with sisters and am raising a little girl, so this will be a very different adventure. Not sure I'm prepared for the extra energy a boy brings. Matt will be happy to take him on "Father-Son" campouts and rockclimbing. My Dad is also very excited. This is his first Grandson! He finally won't feel so outnumbered by women talking about their "time-of-the-month" and makeup.

Names have already been decided by various family members (except from Matt and me). We haven't decided yet. Last Sunday I felt the baby move for the first time, and he hasn't stopped since!! I love this stage when I can feel the baby. I can't wait to have him in my arms.

18 weeks and looking BIG!


Our cute little boy. We'll spare you the "gender" shot :)

Funny- I started typing my message and I looked to the left and it was exactly the same message as Tawni's- word for word. So happy for you guys- Aleena can practice with Graham any time she wants!!
