The X Factor

We're not sure what the X factor is but, apparently, we don't have it. We learned this afternoon that we are expecting our 5th adorable little boy.
Gabriel is excited about having a whole basketball team, but Elijah said, "Mom! Why didn't you have a girl this time?!?"
Sorry, Elijah, no control over that buddy. That's really more a question for Daddy anyway.
We will have to assume that baby boy Ricks is going to be adorable based on past experience, because he was very uncooperative about getting cute ultrasound pictures. He was a pro about letting the technician look at his heart, measure his bones, you know the important stuff. However, he refused to let us get a profile picture at all and spent a lot of time crossing his hands in front of his face. He crossed his little legs and ankles a lot too.
Here are the clearest pictures we got of our little guy:

Is it possible to be cute and scary at the same time?

Here are two little feet. So far, this baby is far less kicky than the others. Maybe he will be really chill.

These are the hands that kept obscuring his face. He seemed to be communicating that he just wanted to be left alone, or maybe he is just camera shy.

This was the final attempt at getting a profile picture, but instead we got another, as the doctor put it, "Halloween shot". Oh well, we'll be excited to see what he looks like when he arrives in February.

P.S. I think I am living in the wrong era. I would have some serious status right now if I lived in, say, 6th century China.
