It's a Boy!!!

We found out yesterday that we're having a boy!! As pretty much all of you know, we'd been looking forward to finding out for quite a while. It was really exciting for us. It's definitely a milestone in this journey in a way, because from now on, we will never not know.

We are so much looking forward to the adventures of raising a boy! Both of us were just so hopeful to have a healthy, developing baby, and we were very happy yesterday to hear that mom and little baby boy are both on track and are doing great.

Here is Stephany at twenty weeks!



And here's our little baby boy! He was so active during the ultrasound! We saw him moving around quite a bit, opening and closing his mouth, moving his arms, making little fists, putting his hands to his face, and playing with his toes when they came into the vicinity of his hands. It was so awesome.





And here was the shot we were hoping for! It's definitely a boy.



Another shot of the legs. We think they look pretty long, so we'll see if he gets my height.



And a cute shot of a foot. Five toes.



Nathan & Stephany

Hey there! This is Stephany's (second) cousin, Lori. Auntie Donna shares your e-mails and pictures with me, and it makes me so happy to hear about what you both are experiencing. Congratulations on becoming pregnant! This is such a wonderful and wild journey -- I'm so happy God has blessed you with a uneventful pregnancy (that's a good thing!), great employment opportunities and, most of all, each other. Get ready, guys -- it's a crazy ride! :)
