It's a BOY!

this is for those of you without the benefits of facebook who don't know yet. On Monday he showed us his manhood but wouldn't move so we could get a good look at the heart so we'll be back soon to look at that.

Was that what I thought it was?

So around Christmas time I started to feel something faint. I felt a distinct flutter a few weeks before but nothing since. It felt like maybe the pulse I normally feel around my bellybutton but it wasn't in the right place. It also kinda feels like bubbles moving through my stomach. I am officially feeling our baby move and it is really exciting. I was on the phone with my sister Stacy last night and the baby totally bumped me twice. It was like a little "Hello Aunt Stacy."

On the other hand a friend at work yesterday said I am looking particularly pale and anemic. I have been wondering if I should be taking additional iron supplements and I think I probably should. Ah the joys of pregnancy. So worth it though because I am so thrilled to be on this journey with Dave. A week from Monday we'll find out the sex of the baby (as long as the baby cooperates) and I'm excited to start being able to use the correct pronouns instead of "it".
