On our ultrasound at 11 weeks, it was a little too early to accurately guess on the sex of baby. The ultrasound lab was split on what they thought I was having. I was pretty convinced that I was going to have a boy (mother's intuition?), but I knew I would have to wait a few more weeks to know for sure. We peeked again between 12 and 13 weeks at which point it definitely looked boyish! I was so convinced that I started telling people it was a boy and a few weeks later, we saw that there was no doubt about it....we're having a little boy!!!
In some ways the fact that it is a boy is a major blessing, because Steve and I couldn't come anywhere close agreeing on a girl's name. If we ever have a little girl in the future, it is going to be a challenge to agree on that. For now, we get to be thankful that we agree on the boy's name, so we will be naming our first born son Nathan Powell. Having a name picked out for him makes everything seem a little more real. There are days when I still just can't believe we are going to be parents. I can't wait to see the little face that goes with the name.
Yay, for NJ we love the name! We are so excited for you guys to become parents, it's an amazing adventure that changes your life forever. You'll never know you could love someone so much as you do your child and it's the best feeling in the world. Hope your feeling well and the heat didn't get to you too much this weekend. See you soon!
