{drumroll please...}

danny: what's that??
doctor: HIS thing
danny: i don't get it...
doctor: umm. that's the thing that tells us he's a boy.
danny: ohhhhhh. WE'RE HAVING A BOY?!?!
jessie: i don't know how to change boys' diapers.
danny: you'll figure it out.
jessie: yeah right! you're the dad. good luck when he shoots at you.

{our reactions, seconds after finding out that we are having a little baby BOY.
ps. those were danny's exact words. it was hilarious.}


yeah. we are ECSTATIC, to say the least. the ultrasound was absolutely amazing. we got to see his brain, his cute little heart, his lips, hands, feet, and his little profile. whenever the doctor was focused in on his legs he was kicking like crazy! we already have a little soccer star in the making. he weighs three-fourths of a pound and everything is in great condition! after our appointment today, everything feels SO much more real. now all we need to do is decide on a name for this little boy...any ideas?? four months to go until we get to meet this little baby boy. what a miracle it is.

life is good.

  2. you should really quit asking for name suggestions already!! Jenny and I are getting offended that you keep changing your minds about naming your first born after us, his name can be one of the following: Brennathan, or Brennan.
    you choose : )

  13. Yippie for you! I will tell you that deciding on a name really helped me feel like that moving thing was real. But names were the hardest things for us. And I don't think it is something Tom or I will have to worry about any time soon....or ever....we may never get a boy.
