Heir to the Throne



Today was the big day, and as Billy said, "There is an Heir To the Throne!"

Squirt...as I predicted...HAS A WEENUS!

He was not cooperating when we first got to the ultrasound. Our tech was thinking we might not see anything. Then suddenly, out of nowhere he shifted around and BAM! WEENUS!

We also got the treat of seeing Squirt in 3D and 4D! Basically, it's as good as a real photo. So we got to see his face and he even yawned and scratched his head with his tiny little tongue hanging out.

We established a few things today:
1) Squirt weighs 1.6 lbs - that's the 58th percentile. Thank God he's not huge.
2) He has my nose. Sorry, kid. The flat Filipino nose is the strongest gene known to mankind. No way to get around it.
3) He's very acrobatic. His feet and hands were in front of his face for most of the ultrasound. Whaat? (I suspect jazz hands at work)
4) He's breech. Which is why I've been feeling like crap lately because his head is poking me.
5) I'm fat. The doctor said I should make healthier choices. LOL. I've gained 18 lbs total...ummm 9 lbs happened this month. Whoops. It was Thanksgiving. Gimme a break.

Yaaay for weenuses!

OMG - really, you're through the second trimester ALREADY?! Wow it went fast for me.

So happy Squirt is a boy. Squirt is actually a better boy name anyway.

XO - love you/miss you.

I knew it, I knew it! And 19 lbs, that's not bad at all, but you do have 3 more months to go.....just kidding!

Auntie Anne is soooo happy. Time to go shopping!!!!!!! Tell him I love him and his cousins are excited too!!! Well Josh's first response was "Danggit!" He has been wanting a girl since before I got pregnant with Joey. But now he has re-thought the situation and he says he can teach him video games. Since Squirt's parents will be too busy to play them any longer:)

Your blog is wonderful and I'm throughly enjoying it!!
Congrats on having a boy! You are the 3rd person I know having one this year! Have you picked a name (besides Squirt) and will you tell it?

Glad everything is going well!

Breech is not so bad... I had them all that way. At least they didn't have to come out my va-jay-jay, but there is still plenty of time to turn.
