It's a....... BOY!



we had our "anatomical survey" ultrasound today and everything looked GREAT! the genetic doctor did a bunch of measurements and carefully studied every part of our baby. he said the risk of trisomy 13 or 18 is still 1 in 82 (based on the blood tests and NT scan) but it is a really, really good sign that he wasn't able to see any of the traditional trisomy characteristics in today's ultrasound. he said that from what he could see, everything looked perfect which was music to our ears. we couldn't be happier. i cried tears of happiness for half an hour.

and to top it all off, we got the wonderful news that we are having a baby BOY!!! we both had a feeling that it would be a boy (along with most everyone else!) and we are so excited. so thankful, so happy, and so excited. Thank you, Jesus!
