IT'S A BOY!!!

David and I had the anatomy ultrasound today and we are please to announce - duh-duh-duuuuhhhh - it's a boy! :o)

As usual, Garrett loves ultrasounds and was moving around like crazy! It was so fun and exciting seeing him moving around and kicking - too funny! So at the beginning, they go through and measure the head and look at the heart and the brain and some of the organs to make sure things are going ok. Since he was moving so much, the ultrasound lady had to try many times to get the profile pix and the heart pix and all that jazz. But, when it came time to check out the package, she had NO trouble - I think he's very proud of his package! lol
**WARNING** Graphic ultrasound pictures... be ware! ;o)
[Disclaimer:....You must be old enough to know what a penis is to read this blog.]
So this is a side view of little Garrett:
The two arrows are pointing to his.... um... unit. :o)
The left arrow is the scrotum and the right arrow is the penis. :o) His butt is just underneath that and I think that's a rough profile on the right of the pix.
Here's another shot of his manhood:
You can see his two legs (knees towards the top of the pix) and manhood front and center! lol

Here's a pix of his leg and foot (top, left). Amazing!


And last, but not least, here's a great profile of the little man!
His face is on top and you can see his forehead, nose, mouth and chin! :o)

We are soooo super excited for a boy! This will be the 4th (technically 5th) grandson on my side of the family and the FIRST on David's side! (I'm sooo getting brownie points for this!!)
Everything went well with the ultrasound and his measurements were normal for 20 weeks and they estimated that he weighs 12oz... crazy! Like I said before, he was soooo active during the ultrasound. We were able to see him kicking and stretching his legs (David liked that!) and he is just the cutest thing ever! He was even looking into the camera a few times... kinda creepy with the black and white pictures and a funky half formed eyeball looking directly at you on the monitor! Loved it! I wish we could of had a video of it because there is no doubt that this little guy has a Spirit already - and a personality too! :o)
I don't remember Bellah being so active, but her kicks were a little more solid than his were. I love that every time I sit down or lay down and can feel him flutter kick me - it's the best feeling in the world and worth every porcelain prayer! Now, I have to not go crazy over the next 20 weeks waiting for him! With Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas on the way - I'll have plenty to keep me busy!! heehheheeee!
Other than that - we've been doing well. David has started working full time with his Army Reserve unit which has made Bellah happy because now she's back in school (which she has been talking about ever since we took her out in July). She loves her friends and teachers (which she calls her friends) and I'm happy knowing that she's getting lots of social interaction and back to learning more regularly again!
David's position isn't permanent, but it's a fill in position till they find someone for it (which will hopefully be him because he's applied for it!). Either way, he'll be doing something with them while he gets his MBA which will work out great for us! :o)
I'm taking my last class that I need to hit my 150 hours needed to sit for the CPA exam! Yay!!! So, if all goes well, I will start sitting for the CPA next year and hopefully by December be a licenced professional! Go me! :o)
Well, gotta run - sooo much to do and baby's getting hungry - again!
Love ya!
DB, JB, BB & GB :o)
