In case you haven't heard just yet... it's a boy! According to the poll that was here last month, most of you thought it would be; I think the final tally was 14 to 3.
We had such an amazing day Monday. I can't imagine a better anniversary gift than to be able to see our son. I think he must have felt the excitement, because he was moving SO much! I have felt him move before, but being able to see him move on the ultrasound screen made me feel every little twist and turn. In fact, since the ultrasound, I feel him constantly. He was breech at the time, and I think he must usually be in this position because he always kicks pretty low.
After we heard the magic words, "It's a boy!" we spent the rest of the day thinking about what that meant for us. Jason had a couple of interesting thoughts on the matter:
"I would make a great King... I make babies quick, and I make 'em boys."
"Hey! We won't have to pay for the wedding!"
Mostly, I was thinking that I need to learn a few things about sports. I thought of Lilly too, and how great a dog she's going to be for a boy. And I thought of how wonderful
it will be to have a "Momma's Boy" for the first several years (not to mention the fact that we can by pass the teenage-girl thing for a few more years!)
As far as more pictures of Baby go, there aren't many, but I thought you might enjoy seeing a few of these (kissably cute, I'm sure) baby parts.
* Sorry these pictures are so SMALL! I will try to change the scale and repost soon.
Aw!! I can't wait! He's gonna be so cute! Cuz juno dem Juneau boys is hot! Hahaha! Even though I wanted Blimey to turn out to be twin girls, I'm gonna love my nephew so much!
ReplyDeleteAWWWW Austin and I are sooooo thrilled for you and Jason! We've already started looking for gifts...I think we'll be spoiling the little guy! We also want to come visit sometime after he's born so let’s talk about it! Love you Shelley, thank you for sharing pictures!

Can't wait!!! I LOVE Jason's responses...but I have come to expect things like that from him! He looks like a mighty big boy already! Do we have a pool going on how big he might be?!:)
ReplyDeleteThank you all! ♥ This has truly been the most incredible experience of my life. I cannot wait to meet Baby! (We started calling him "Monkey" since we've found out he's a he.
ReplyDeleteAnd as far as that pool goes on size, I'm sticking with a healthy (and easy delivery) of 6 pounds :) Haha
Jason says 8lbs 7oz, Who Dat!
So I am thinking two walls purple and gold and two walls black and gold.

Dear, while I thank you very much for your input on Monkey's room...the football theme will come off a little strong, no? I have a feeling that he'll get enough LSU and Saints in this family! :)
