It's A BOY!

....we think...

Truth is, we're not sure. Not 100%. I'm only 13 weeks, which technically speaking is far too early to be able to tell. But at our monthly appointment yesterday, The Doodle graced us with an ass-up posture the entire time, which meant two things. 1) We had a nearly impossible time getting a cute little face picture for the fridge, but 2) we got a prime shot of the young'uns developing genitals. The minute our doctor asked us if, on the off chance she could tell, would we like to know the sex?, the both of us said "absolutely!" Both she and Matt instantly pointed to a spot on the ultrasound where the suspected penis was (I suspect my husband has been secretly studying ink blot tests for practice). I put on my glasses, leaned forward, cocked my head to the side, pretty much anything I could think of to give myself the advantage I needed to be able to see this mythical member. In the end, I took their word for it. It wasn't until I had the print outs in my hand, and was able to flip them upside-down to get a right-side up view, that I could see what they're talking about. So, here we are. With a powerful disclaimer reminding everyone (including myself) that it's still REALLY EARLY and we're not 100% sure....our OB is pretty sure. We're having a boy! *
