We are so so so pleased to announce that we are expecting a little BOY in early July. I can hardly believe it.
I have a little penis inside of me.
Phil and I both took the day off yesterday and had our appointment in the afternoon. Everything was measuring absolutely perfect, we are so relieved and excited. I honestly can say that neither of us cared whether it was a girl or a boy, but knowing the gender makes everything much more real. I feel like I can start to envision it now.
Plus, at all the previous ultrasounds there wasnt too much to see. But at this one, we saw the whole skeleton, all 4 chambers of the heart pumping, two hemispheres of the brain, and of course, ‘the goods’. It was very cool. Of the ten thousand pictures they took yesterday, they gave us 2. (cheap asses.) I dont think everyone needs to see my sons penis, so all you get is this:
[Sorry – there was a string on the scanner. We didnt feel like scanning it again. ] Tell me that isnt a wozniak nose? Im just so excited to meet this little guy. Here is me on the way to the appointment:
We also had my regular check-up on Thursday night where we are able to get a recording of the heartbeat:
Im chatting with the doctor in the background, but you get the idea.
We do not have any name ideas yet. We didnt play the name game early on since we were waiting to find out the gender. But so far we have had the stellar recommendations of ‘Daniel Russell’ or ‘Russell Daniel’. (Thanks Dan and Rusty!) We have 20 more weeks to think about it!
Amy, you are looking GREAT!! Can’t wait to see the BBB (Baby Boy Bump) in person! 😀

Mrs. Tefft – I cant believe im starting this phase in my life. I still kind of feel like I am playing house, and that I should really be running around Dennison dorm in a bright pink boa with Annakate. Its all too crazy!
