It's a....

Boy!

When we started the scan the sonographer told us it was a girl. We got really excited because we both wanted to have a girl.

Further on in the scan she changed her mind once she had a better look and thinks its a boy. He was being very active so it was difficult to be conclusive and to get any good photos. I was sent away for an hour hoping he would change positions but was only slightly better when I returned. She had another look at him and told us it was 80% likely to be a boy. Hopefully we can have a better look at our next ultrasound but we are sticking with boy for now.

I'm thankful that Barney and I get to have a son. We definitely wanted a boy at some point but was hoping to have a girl first. Oh well... that is life and we are incredibly blessed either way! We will love him and care for him either way. He is ours.

It was so amazing to see his little heart beating, see him sucking his thumb and trying to 'flex' his little arms (Above and up side down). God is good.

We have no boys names chosen. We have lots of girls names we both love but we can't seem to find a boy name we agree on! Oh well... we still have some time to think things through. I don't think we will share his name once we decide on one. We would like to keep one thing a surprise :)

It is starting to feel so real now!
