okay, okay... the long awaited post...

Well... as if the 5 weeks of waiting until our appointment wasn't enough, sitting in the waiting room for over a half hour was TORTURE! My sister Delinda came with us and sitting between her and Ryan is always entertaining- so at least I had that distraction sitting there in anticipation. We finally got called into the room and I laid down to get poked and prodded at. We got to see the little one's face and profile (I will scan and attach pictures when I can), we got to see two little feet and hands and arms and knees and legs. The heart beating and the little belly. Spine looks good, brain looks good- and we even got a great Skeletor view of the little one face! So I mean, all of this was great and I was laying there with watering eyes looking at my beautiful little child while holding my wonderful husband's hand and just feeling so blessed. But really wanted to see what was going on "down there" on this kid! FINALLY we got a peek, and a good one at that... and well kids, we're having a little BOY come to our family! And boy is he a BOY! No doubt about it!
So Ryan will no longer be the only guy in the house what with me and our little doggy Ally! We are so excited!!!! We both have really wanted to have a little boy, but I've had a few dreams it was a girl and everyone thought I was carrying high even though I'm not really- I'm just really short! And I would say a good 95% of the people we asked or I work with thought it was a girl. I even did! So it's taking a little adjusting to realizing that first I can stop calling him "it" and that I've got to think in boy terms now! It was SOOOO fun to see our little guy moving around in there and to see his cute little face!

We got to call our parents and my brother Greg while they were all together and let them know!

So his daddy is SUPER proud and we both couldn't be happier!
