{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.
