We're having a BOY!!!!

Well, we have had a busy week! We went on vacation to Cabo and arrived back last night. We went to the doctor this morning for our 19 week sonogram and we were able to see the baby! As you will see in the pictures below, we are having a little boy! We are both super excited and can not wait to meet him. He has started moving around a lot. I can feel him, but his movements are not strong enough for Chris to feel yet. Just flutters and taps on my belly from the inside.

The doctor said everything looks really good, he is growing on track (19 weeks tomorrow), weighs approx 10 ounces (so a little less than a Coke) and is about 15 cm long (so about the size of a banana). We were able to see the various parts of his brain, all four chambers of his heart, and most of his toes and fingers. He moved around a good bit and WAS NOT shy when it came time to show us he was definitely a he! Chris was a very proud father at that point!

Here are some pics of the little guy!

Little Boy Halpin sucking his thumb!

Our little alien baby is looking right at you! The dark spots are his eyes. His little nose is in between them!

His foot!

His little baby bottom!

And the money shots! He had his legs crossed and it they said it was going to be hard to see. Then the doctor just pushed on my tummy a few times and he rolled right over on his back and let us see.

I am sure he'll love that I shared these with all of you when he is 16! We are super excited and are looking forward to doing more planning now! I'll send pics from vacation and a kitchen update later this week! I hope all is well with everyone!
