Oh boy

So today was the big day, the sonogram. I am still trying to get over the shock of it, even though it was a good shock. It was just such an unbelievable experience. That's my nose on our little baby! (Although I suppose it could be John's nose, as our noses are actually quite similar. . .) We got to see the heart pumping, with all four chambers, the little feet, the bladder, stomach and brain. The hands kept opening and closing, slowly, like the baby was waving at us. The sonographer asked if we wanted to know the sex of the baby, and we said yes, so she pointed the machine between the legs and told us that we were having a boy. A boy!

It was so amazing, I am actually, for the most part, dumbstruck over it.
