Miraculous Discoveries

Today we had our 20.5 week appt at the Dr. office. As usual we waited about 40 minutes in the waiting room which really chapped my hide. I started to nip at Brian because my temper was flaring. However, finally we got called back to the sono room and our technician was nice. We told her we didn't want her to tell us right off the bat what it was because we just wanted to have a few moments to look at our baby. She assured us she never tells the patient right away what the sex is. After staring at the miracle that was swirling around in my tummy (so cute by the way!!) she asked us if we were ready to "see". We said sure, and she quickly turned her doppler so that it looked straight at the bottom, legs and crotch of our little one. Don't you love the word crotch? :) Anyway, we immediately saw the ever so distinguishable package that was attached to our little guy. Yes, guy, it is a boy. Noah will have a fun little brother and buddy to look after. We were excited but not surprised a bit because I had a feeling for awhile now that I was carrying a boy. It truly is miraculous to see how God has put together this being inside of me and it's growing every minute by His power alone. Well, Brian and I are very excited to prepare for our family of four. Keep us and this child in your prayers as we hope for a peaceful and safe delivery.....not to mention the couple months following. :)
