A boy?

Last week we went for the 12 week screening ultrasound to make sure the baby looks healthy.  We had an ultrasound tech and her assistant helping with the ultrasound.  After the tech finished, she asked the assistant to play around and see some different angles.  Though she wasn't allowed to tell us girl or boy, she said that she did find something between the legs that was not the umbilical cord.  Sounds like a boy to me!  It's not for sure though, as the baby is still so small.  Next ultrasound we should be able to know for sure.  From the six week ultrasound until now there's a huge difference in size and detail!  He looks like a full size baby now with facial features and all, even though he's only the size of a lemon!  He even sucked his thumb while we were watching on the screen...

Baby on the way!!

Josh and I are so excited to announce that we will add a new member of our family in September!  We already went to the doctor to have the first ultrasound and heard the heartbeat!  Hard to believe there is a person growing inside of me...  I've been feeling great.  No morning sickness or anything!  Right now, it's only the size of a prune.  We are hoping to find out in two weeks, the gender of the baby.  Josh thinks it's a boy and I think it's a girl.  We'll see!  I can't help but stop at the baby spot in the grocery store even now, just to scope it out. :)  We started this weekend working on the nursery.

This was how we told our friends on Facebook ;)

More updates to come!
