it's a boy!

Monday, we went to the doctor's office to have our first ultrasound of the baby. It was a completely entrhalling experience for both of us. We spent about a half an hour watching the screen in amazement. We got to see, for the very first time, our new baby. We also found out that we're expecting a boy. It amazed me that we have the technology to do something like that. We were watching our little baby, not more than 5 inches or so long, kicking and moving around. He is evidentally as stubborn as his father because he was upside down and pretty well refused to move from that position; the technician had to poke and prod at my wife's abdomen to try and get the baby to move where he needed him.

After the ultrasound and the following doctor's visit, we ran a few errands and then got to returning things. My wife had already bought lots of baby stuff (boy and girl items). So we had to go return all the pink things. We ended up spending everything we got back from the return and then some on more boy stuff though. This baby is probably going to have enough clothes to get through kindergarten at this point.
