Results are in...... and it's a baby BOY!

Ahhhhh what a breath of fresh air! Now I can finally get a healthy nights sleep!!!

I have woken up every morning with some dream of me announcing it's a boy, or it's a girl, and then I can't get back to bed because my mind wanders, then I run off to pee for the 5th time... all over and over... and at least now I can put my mind to rest about the baby's sex, and that he has 2 arms and 2 legs with all of his digits intact, and no cleft lip (adorable lips I might add)!

Something puzzling and something good happened at the ultrasound this morning.

Let's start with the puzzling. The ultrasound technician kept stating that she had some concern for the placement of the placenta... then said that my doctor, or mid-wife would look into it further and talk to me if it needed further attention. Well... I have an appointment with my mid-wife on 10/26 so I'll know more at that time. Hopefully all is well with baby, and I can still have the natural birth I was hoping for.

The other thing that was good was that Jeremy and I immediately agreed on a name as soon as the tech left the room. He said "What about Adrian" and I said... I love it but let's spell it with my last name Dray, so it's "Adrayn", and the middle and last name were no-brainers, as they are meaningful family names.

Adrayn David Frandrup is our baby boys name!! How common is that...to agree so quickly?!

We had already had a beautiful girls name in mind, but no boys names... so this is really crazy!

I really need to get someone to take a profile belly shot of me soon! :)

Parker and Presley were almost as excited as I was this morning. Their uncle Jamie was here to babysit bright and early at 815am (thank you Jamie!!) and each of the kids were hoping for the same sex as they are... Parker wanted a boy, and Presley a girl. Presley has already had her wish granted by her mother (a baby sister), so Parker was still brother-less... until today! It was important to me that the kids felt great about the news, and included in everything. I told Parker that he's like my first son, and Presley that she's like my only daughter, so they are excited to share with baby Adrayn, and love the name too!

Jeremy and I thought it would be fun to bring pink and blue candy home, and whichever candy papa grabbed out of my hand and gave them was what their sibling is! They loved that idea... mainly because of the candy factor I"m assuming....

Oh, also I forgot to mention... I'm a whole week farther than I thought! I was thinking around 18.5 weeks, but according to measurements I am 19.5 weeks!! Adrayn is coming sooner than I thought!

I hope I start to feel his little kicks soon, I guess 20 weeks is common for that feeling to start. I'm just happy that I saw him moving like mad around today via the ultrasound with a healthy heart-rate and "normal" skeletor look to him. It's pretty amazing!

Papa Jeremy was the first to notice the sex organs... but they weren't so difficult to spot! This boy is huge! Sorry for my crude language, but it's true! Maybe it's the stage of growth, but for a little 10 ounce guy he's doing alright.

I would post an ultrasound picture, but only got a horrible print out on computer paper, and they don't look too great, so you'll have to wait to see the real Adrayn in March.

I am so excited, it is all so real now!!!!

Oh, and that "Intelligender" test was wrong! :(

Well folks, I'm off to play with Parker and Presley.

Mucho love!
