We have a boy, ladies and jellyspoons!

Yes, indeed, Dan put the stem on the apple.

I love how it just says "GENDER" with an arrow, no "BOY". Pretty obvious, really

The tech asked us if we wanted to know the gender and when we said yes, well, Dan had barely sat down before she said, "It's a boy." It took us both so by surprise that Dan started uncontrollably laughing. I of course started crying, just a few tears, nothing nuts.

Tristan James was less than cooperative the rest of the ultrasound. He had his hands over his face and was wedged into some weird position like a picture taken of him trying to do a somersault just as his legs got up over his head. His chin was mashed to his chest and he didn't seem real interested in moving. The tech even dumped my bed halfway upside down and poked him a bunch, but all he did was swat the air (or amniotic fluid, rather) as if to say, " 'Ey! I'm sleepin' in heeyah!" He is our son already.

He's measuring ahead on his head and torso but short on his legs, and therefore I can already tell he has Dan's  body. Long torso, stumpy legs, big head.

I am so in love with my son it's ridiculous. I wish it wasn't 5 months until I can hold him in my arms, but I know since this is the only pregnancy we plan on having I better cherish all the kicks and even the discomfort because it will be over before I know it.

Now all the fun shopping can begin!

SKELETOR! I love his little eye up there.

Wavin' his lil butt in the air. I can't wait to pinch that little tushy.
