That's right folks. We are expecting baby boy number four! We had our big ultrasound yesterday, and while I will not post the picture proof believe you me that there was no question about the gender of this baby. Not shy, this one. :)
We had a really nice and enthusiastic ultrasound technician. She was patient with my wiggly and sometimes uncooperative little guy and gushed over every part. "Here's his femur- it's perfect!" "Oh, look at that humerus, looks great!" I think during the ultrasound we heard all of the following adjectives: perfect, wonderful, fabulous, great, beautiful, nice, outstanding and amazing. The doctor confirmed that our little guy seems to be the picture of health and is weighing in at about half a pound- right on schedule for his April 4th (or 5th) due date.
Here's a few pictures- keep in mind I don't have a scanner so there is a little glare from taking pictures of the ultrasounds:
This is the naughty foot that already keeps me up at night sometimes.
Look at that handsome profile!
And here is a little hand waving hello. When Gabe and Elijah saw this picture they pointed to my belly and asked, "You have a monkey in there?"
Our boys are excited about the new baby as are we. I guess maybe we should have one more boy so we can have a whole basketball team. Marc thinks we should anyway.
Congrats, guys! We're sure happy for you. And I love the "monkey" comment. :)
