We went to our follow up appointment with the specialist yesterday and had an ultrasound. We are so excited to announce we are having a boy! Dr. McGhee said everything looks perfectly normal. We feel so blessed and cannot wait to meet our son. The doctor even said he is "princely looking and has a strong jawline". Not sure how he can tell this already but of course I wasn't going to question him. Surely he knows what he is talking about since he sees so many babies via ultrasound pictures each day! Again, our baby boy is measuring about a week and a half ahead of my due date of May 1st so we expect him to arrive sometime in mid to late April.In the first picture our baby boy is kneeling. You can clearly see his head and spine. The second picture looks like a face and part of the body to me but I am not really sure. The third picture is, um, "proof" that he is definitely a boy! We will have another ultrasound at our 20 week appointment on December 9th with my regular doctor.
I am packing right now and will be leaving for Red River, N.M. early in the morning with the family. We will be there until Monday then will drive to Vail/Eagle, CO to stay with my brother and family for Thanskgiving. Sean has to work but will be flying in on Wednesday! I am sure I will have a little time to write on the blog since I can't ski! I even asked my doctor (ok, I wasn't really serious) and he said no, skiing right now would not be a good idea. My brother suggested that I can ride the gondola in circles and occassionally get off for hot chocolate. Not exactly what I had in mind. =)
Love,
Tiffany & Sean
