Thanks so much to Lyz (again!) for updating you all yesterday! DH and I had a GREAT appt! I was obviously very wrong... She was definitely a HE!!!! But we were both so very excited!

His heart rate was about 145 and he looked wonderful! It was a very exciting appt for us. He was NOT shy a bit and spread his legs as soon as she put the wand on my tummy! He's so sweet and prevcious already! We spend the rest of the afternoon shopping with my mom. We bought the entire bedding set with ALL of the accessories (so CUTE), the crib and a hutch and tons of clothes. I will post pics soon, I promise!!

We even put it all together last night and set everything up. We still have to paint, but I wanted to see everything put together! So-- we were basically on the run from 7am yesterday until about 11 pm last night! We had a blast and I am so excited to meet my little man! DH is absolutely ecstatic as well! Thanks SO much for all of the kind words! I love all of you!

And Ashley- great dream You're awesome. Unfortunately- DH wouldn't go for Brayden But here are the names we're thinking:

Colton Travis (after DH obviously)
Brody Nicholas (Nicholas after my dad)
OR Christian Lucas.
We love them all, so we'll see what we pick!!!

MEET our precious baby BOY!!!!!


BOY parts!!!!

Playing with the cord- around his ear!

Starting to get shy!!

Posing for the camera!!

Looking like Daddy already!

More boy parts

Profile shot!


The u/s tech did say that he was super close to my bladder- which explains the pain/pressure I've been having. Because of this, she was unable to get good measurements of his head. We had a slight scare and had to go back in for another u/s before we left. Her measurements were putting him at risk for Downs. Luckily, it was just the bad angle he was laying in and she was able to get some better measurements. He was still stubborn and insisted on staying right at my bladder- but he was so sweet! He had his hands at his face the ENTIRE time. We're pretty much in love!!!!
Thanks for reading ladies!

Erin, you are too funny that you went and bought all that stuff AND put it together already. I would have totally done the same thing! I love all the u/s pics and yep, definitely a boy!!! No question there!!! Was DH excited to get a little boy??? Love the names you have so far. My fav is Colton Travis but DH said he loved the name Brody Nicholas!!! You really can't go wrong. Can't wait to see what all you bought. I'm so excited for you!!!!!!!!!!

Well if you go with Brody, it isn't too far from Brayden, so Ashley's dream wouldn't bee *too* far off afterall. Congrats, again! He's just gorgeous!
