Again....

More pictures :)
In this top picture, he was smiling. At least that's what the tech said. I can see the head and the stomach and all that, but as for a smile, that was a stretch for me!
The bottom picture says "I'm a boy". Again it was very hard to see if he was really a boy because he kept moving. Because I was still in slight shock over him being a boy, I asked the lady to check again. Well, everytime she tried to check in that "area", he would move. We saw another image where his legs were up by his head!! Maybe he will be a gymnast!!

"Ultra" Ultrasound

Okay, so I know, I know, not a moment too soon. We don't have such exciting lives as everyone else these days, so I don't update as often. Give us a few more months and we will be posting like crazy! Well, at least we will have something to post about, who knows if we will have the time. We had another ultrasound last week and it was so much fun. My regular OB sent me to a perinatologist to make sure everything was A.O.K. with me and the little one. They do what they call a level two ultrasound. We saw EVERYTHING!! They measured his head, his arms, his legs, his heart, his hands, even his feet. We are very blessed, because everything was normal!! The only questionable trait he has is that his second toe is longer than his first. Devin and I decided that was proof that he was ours. We both have that dashing trait!
He was VERY wiggly while the tech was trying to get pictures and he kept moving around. It was good for me because I finally figured out what it felt like when the baby moved. All along I thought I had really bad gas. I'm not saying I don't, but now I can blame it something else!
These two pictures are of his right leg and his left leg. They were hard to get because he kept moving around!

oUr CrAzY lIfE In aRiZoNa!

Devin and I moved to AZ a year ago in January. Devin is getting a Masters Degree in International Business. He is attending Thunderbird, and loving it. (Okay he is ready to be done, but he has loved the experience.) I am working for a Dentist in Sun City. Its the capital of Geriatrics. People come to the office in Golf Carts instead of Cars. They schedule appointments around their T-times. I never thought I had the patience to work with these people, and believe me, there are days! For the most part, I have learned a lot about diseases, medications and the best assisted living centers in town. (Just in case my Dad needs a place to live!) All in all, we really like living down here. The weather is great about 8 months out of the year, and even I get a good tan in the summer. We live in a great ward, and we have made some great friends! After graduation (in 6 weeks) Devin hopes to find a job (at this point: anywhere), but we would love to stay in the area. If not, I hope wherever we move, isn't as HOT as AZ!!! (Especially being pregnant!) This blog has caused me great grief, I am NOT smart enough for this! So thanks to Devin for figuring out much more than I could, and to Tiff, for always inspiring me. (Or for letting me copy everything she does, and feeding us almost every night..luv ya).

Are you sure it's a Boy?


We had an ultrasound last Friday. I have been convinced all along that this baby was a girl. So imagine my SURPRISE when the tech told us it was a BOY! He wasn't really cooperative at first, but we were able to "spot" the evidence. I am a little nervous, I have to admit, but excited none the less!

Here's the Proof!

I know it's hard to see, but this is a view of the little one from the "bottom" side. He is sitting on the ultrasound camera, so to see the evidence you have to "peek" between his legs. Turns out, he's not really that shy!!
