Baby Hoop is a Boy!
Baby Boy Foot! Hopefully He won't get big feet like me!
He looking at you!
Sorry it has taken me a while to post about last week, but my computer for the past two days has been acting up. To be without a computer some would say not a big deal, but for me it was. This is the only computer in our house right now, so I was on a mission of getting it taken care of. I have a MAC and I have never had problems until now. And this problem was probably more my fault than the computers, but last night I went to a friends house and we got it taken care of.
Now on to the news you all want to really know about. Last Tuesday we had our ultra sound appointment and it lasted a couple of hours. We arrived, and of course we were 10 min late. The usual for us. We were called in to the ultrasound room, and the ultrasound technician began, I asked her if we could listen to the heart beat because Brandon didn't get to hear that last time. She informed us that the heart rate was 139 and so my brain starting thinking I wonder if its a boy. There is a old wives tale out there saying if the heart rate is lower than 150 its a boy. Than she proceeded to show us the baby's head the cerebellum, left and right membrane, the heart chambers, spinal cord, blood flow, the umbilical cord, and she measure the skin growth. We got to see the babies arms and hands, he has all 10 fingers! Next were the legs, and I was trying to see if I could tell anything and I couldn't. Our ultrasound was not 3 or 4D, it was just black and white. So it hard to see most things. All I know was that she said the baby was moving around a lot and that it was hard to get it to stay still. Our appointment was at 8am and I was getting my diabetes test done, so before I got to the office I had to drink this sugar drink. She said no wonder why its moving around so much. We didn't find the sex out until the very end. And its a boy! A healthy boy!! All the numbers in the ultrasound were great, and he was weighing in at 11 ounces.
We were very excited to find the sex out, now we can start thinking of names, nursery colors, and finding boy clothing. I will say a little bit of me was sad, I think Brandon would make a great dad for a little girl. Well hopefully next time. But we are very happy that it seems very healthy, and I am doing great. Def. growing. I haven't taken any pictures yet of me and my growing body. Its not something that I find a lot of joy in, I will not be able to stay away from the camera forever. One day you will see one. Until that day occurs here are two pictures from the ultrasound, and some clothes we already picked up for him!
