It's A...

BOY!! Barry and I had an Ultrasound on Friday that revealed our little baby is a boy. We are both really excited, probably more that we are learning more about our child than what's it's gender actually is. We would have been happy with either (just not both, that would have been too complicated). Our ultrasound tech was fabulous. We spent 45 minutes looking at the baby and along the way she pointed out and measured things and told us each part was normal and developing well. We watched the 4 chambers of the heart pump blood, saw a partially full bladder and knew the digestive system was working, saw little kidneys, and looked at the brain and spinal cord. Even though I have been tracking what develops when in my books I was amazed to see this little being with all it's working parts! We are so excited to find out more about the baby...Barry predicts blond hair and blue eyes (him at a young age) while I am thinking brown hair brown eyes (typical of my side of the family).

The purpose of the ultrasound was to give a due date but we didn't get an answer on if that is changing or not. We won't find out until my next appt on August 20th (which will include the typical 20 week ultrasound :)
