Little boy or little girl???

Ok...here's what you all want to know, are we having a boy or are we having a little girl? We've debated about finding out and whether or not we should. In the end we decided that no matter when we found out it would still be a surprise. the nice thing about finding out sooner rather than later is that we can now start to make some plans.

We had our first ultrasound yesterday. What an experience!! It is truely one that I will never forget and cherish forever. It was truely wonderous to see our little baby and this definately made things more "real" to me since my body is not the one going through all the changes.

We arrived for the ultrasound and while Megan was calm and collected, I was more like a duck paddling on the lake (everything seemed fine on the surface, but underneath I was just trying to make it through the day). The ultrasound tech had no problem finding the baby and soon we had a little show. The baby was extremely active and was moving around during the entire ultrasound.

In addition to the traditional photos from the ultrasound, we were able to get a DVD recording of the ultrasound with everything that was done. I've already watched this 2-3 times since we've been home. If I can find out how to do this, I'll try to post this here for everyone to see. Here is one of the pictures from the ultrasound, follow the photos link to see the rest of the photos. This is the profile view of our baby where you can see the head to the left with the outline of the skull, the belly and spine in the middle, and the lower legs to the right of the picture.





Alright, so now to answer the question...boy or girl. Well, as you may have noticed, the background of the blog is blue....we are having a little BOY!
