BOY!!! This was the first picture the ultrasound lady showed us! We really had no feeling one way or the other, but this pregnancy has been COMPLETELY different than the last one. With Kate, I threw up all day every day and only wanted macaroni and cheese or cheese toast. This time, I have only been sick a handful of times, and I have craved nasty stuff like bacon and toast with real butter, and other healthy things! We are so excited to have one of each, but now I need to start buying some boy clothes! Most of the equipment we got is neutral, so we can use it... but I doubt he will want to wear dresses and all pink! Brandon didn't make as much of a reaction as I thought he would, but he explained later that he just didn't want to appear more excited than he would have been if it was another girl. What am I going to do with a boy??? We don't have a name yet, but we will keep you updated!
This is him looking at us with his arm by his side. He was sucking his index finger at one point during the ultrasound.
This is him waving at us! He has long limbs and big hands and feet... surprise, surprise! It was so exciting to see him in there moving around and it just reminded me what real people babies are at such an early point in development! When you see them move and wave and you can feel them, it totally puts it into perspective that they are already a living person! Wow, what a wonderful (and humbling) job this is to carry a tiny little life until they are ready to enter this world!

Yay for a baby boy!! I know it's so hard to imagine right now, since all you know is a little girl, but you are going to love having a boy-after you get sprayed a few good times:) J/K-you will love it. Anyway, how old will Kate be when he is born? I'm thinking it is almost the same as Ellie and Luke. Looks like you're on the Barber plan.
How exciting to have one of each! We're so happy for you and your little boy's health.
Thanks everyone! We are very thankful for his health and the opportunity to have one of each! They will be 17 months apart, so the need for prayer has NOT stopped! It will be so much fun, but we know it will be busy and hard at first!
