It's been too long since my last post! I got emails from various people that didn't know we were having a baby and found out through the blog - SORRY! We hoped we had made our rounds, and thought the domino would take effect - and for the most part, it did. We're heading into our 4th month here in a week, and the doctor is sticking with a very late August/early September baby.
I have promised to email my Aunt Michelle first when we find out the baby's gender, which should be in April. All the old wives tales says it's a girl, but I still have some doubt. Only 3 people think it's a boy, but those people are hardly ever wrong. We'll see! We just had our first ultra-sound and it's amazing how our little bird already looks completely like a baby. Seeing him/her move was the best part. Our child is active - which leads me to wonder if this gives any insight as to how wild they'll be once they are born.
Jon and I were secretly hoping for twins so we never have to do this again - but it doesn't appear that way. :) Jonathon has been so funny - he loves the "supplies" part of this process. He always picks up the bottle liners when we're at the store and we often look online for all the product reviews. We have been discussing names a lot. When we watch tv, we always turn to each other and ask about a name we just heard. So far, we don't gravitate towards anything really traditional for first names. Taylor Grace and Jackson James are the newest additions to the list.
Since Jon is adopted and we don't know his family medical history, the doctors have been poking me with needles non stop. I actually need to go in again next week for more testing! My arms are starting to hurt! So far, everything is fine, however we have some major tests coming up. We know the Lord will take care of this baby though and cover it in blessings.
I'm headed to Colorado to get my braces off! It's a nice time to go since Jonathon will be in Texas for training. I'll be there for almost a month - which I can hardly believe.
We hope everything is going great with everyone out there!
