We had our 20 week ultrasound (actually at 19 weeks and 2 days) yesterday. It is official we are having a boy. We definitely got a money shot so there is pretty much no doubt. I think he is going to be very tall. Already the doctor said he is in the 60th percentile for his size and he isn't even born yet. :) His arms and legs look so long on all the ultrasounds. I guess we are going to have a basketball player. I didn't have very strong feelings about a boys name, so I am going along with the name Scott wants. Nathan. I don't like any of his choices for a middle name and he doesn't like any of mine, so that discussion continues. I think Nathan Scott is inching out the competition. Scott just doesn't like it because he doesn't want his son named after him at all.
The pregnancy is going well. I am still working. If I can make it for another 12 weeks, finances will work out a lot better. When you get to be 32 and have been working as long as I have--and working my entire married life so far--you begin to really depend on your income. I only get twelve weeks of disability so if I can make it to 32 weeks, I will still be able to have 6 weeks after the baby is born.
I am getting so excited. My lack of patience is rearing it's head though. 40 weeks is so long. I want to meet Nathan now!!! I just can't wait. I am hoping to see some family members visit with the birth and after. Mom and Stephanie have already promised to make every effort to be here for the birth. That certainly makes things less scary. If you can't remember, I don't do pain so well. I am not looking forward to the whole childbirth part. If there was just some way to get the baby out while skipping the discomfort....
We miss everyone and love you!! For anyone who missed it my due date is August 29.
