It's a boy :)
Hi everyone. I still haven't got it together enough to get pictures, but don't know when I will and didn't want to wait anymore. Michael and I went for our ultrasound on the 16th and though our little guy was shy for awhile and hiding behind his legs and the embilical cord, we finally saw his little parts. The technician went on an on about his healthy heart saying it was the best she'd seen that day. I like his cute little profile. Though we didn't get the 3d dvd, we do have a vhs of part of the ultrasound. Drinking the water and writhing in the waiting room for no reason was horrible, but seeing him real time through a window into my tummy was amazing. I loved watching and feeling him move at the same time. I'm at the beginning of my 24th week now and am feeling great and look pregnant enough. I actually like having a tummy and feel pretty attractive. Michael and I went out for our anniversary/my b-day last Friday and I liked my dress. The place, Seldom Blues, was an awesome waterfront jazz club and we had a great time. We're working on adjusting to his new job. Field officer training is pretty demanding and in addition to the stress of learning the job and working midnights, Michael's officer is quite demanding and critical. We miss all the time we used to spend together and the freedom, though we appreciate the job and income. He does have three days off a week :) Sorry for babbling. Hopefully I'll get some pictures of me, the baby, Michael in uniform and our home up soon.

Karen and Michael--congratulations; it is great to think of you being pregnant. If you do decide on a name, could we perhaps have a clue, unless you just want to tell us? It's so exciting about Michael's training, as well. And that club sounds sweet; I might have to go there sometime!

We don't have a name yet. We were going to wait to tell people when we figured it out but clues might be fun, except do you think one can find a clue for any name? Not everyone's a civil war general.
Hey, D - the place is great but expensive - sit at the bar or start saving now :)

Sweet. I always thought you would really like being pregnant, Karen, 'cause you certainly loved seeing other's pregnant bellies... i figured having your own would just make you so happy. Way to make a baby! Keep letting us in on how he is "cooking" - it helps us feel connected with you.
