Our appointment was so much fun! Within 10 seconds of the ultrasound I saw his little dingy and I knew. I think I knew all along, I just kept the possibility open that it was a girl because that would be wonderful too. But this little bean sprouting to life inside is such a boy. We even caught him "grabbing himself" during the ultrasound. The Dr. told us he was longer than average and weighs about 10 ounces. Considering the baby books say he should weight about 7 ounces right now I am beginning to wonder what I got myself into. But honestly, he is healthy and perfect and that is all I care about! We got a DVD of the entire ultrasound and we re-watched it when we got home. He moved his little wrists back and forth like he was warming up for a gig. I think we have a little guitar player on our hands (or maybe a piano player like his great grandmother Brooks). He wiggled about and kept his hands near his face the entire time. This little boy is so loved! It was one of the best moments of my life, sitting with my husband, watching my son move about inside my womb, and finding out that he is healthy. Thank you for all of your prayers and shared excitement, this starts a new chapter and I could not be more ready.
i heard the news from roy this evening. i am so happy for you, and as for being longer than average look at your hubby. . .lol.
