From The Ultrasound Room!

Linda was thoughtful enough to bring her camera into the room with all of us to the big day and caught some great moments!

Here we're waiting for "Boy" or "Girl"

We're in just total amazement at what our son looks like and how beautiful he is!!
Here is mom taking a closer look at the screen while the tech is taking some measurements!

We are pretty happy!!
All of us outside the hospital!

Me and mom (there is a girl balloon just in case it was a girl!)

Holding a picture of Bryce

Two of the happiest people on earth!

Our Fur Child

Beaker was at his grammy Lindas on Thursday afternoon while we were at work. This dog has more toys than he knows what to do with and this is what she caught him doing. Just like a child, all he wants is the box!!


He is just too cute though, you cant tell him no!

More Pictures!

Here is a picture of his ear! I think that is a shoulder on the bottom left.

Here is my new favorite picture, his profile and him waving at us! He is beautiful!

It's A BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, the first thing we asked when we walked into that ultrasound room was "Can you tell us if Bryce is a boy or girl?" The tech said if the baby cooperates, we will. Sure enough, first thing Bryce does is show us HIS parts!! I had a very large gut feeling Bryce was a boy, I have had 4 seperate dreams that he was a boy, so it wasnt a huge shock, but it was awesome to get the confirmation!

He looks healthy and happy in there! A very active child! I think some of the coolest moments for me was to be able to see and feel him move at the same time!



He has an absolutely beautiful face, the tech said that he has some chubby cheeks already! Definately takes after daddy! She said that the computer is measuring him about 2 lbs 6oz right now, which is big for this age I guess, but the doctor is going to go over all of the measurements that she took and give us a better idea!



I have a couple of more ultrasound pictures that I will post later tonight. Tim has them with him at work showing off his son! We couldnt be happier about everything right now!!

26 Weeks Pictures!!

I just thought I would share these newest photos!! Please excuse the blinding paleness of me!

Only a day and a half till we find out if Bryce is a boy or a girl! We're excited!! There will definately be a new post as soon as we get home from our appointment!

Ultrasound Finally Scheduled!!!

Yup, you read that right, we finally have an ultrasound scheduled for August 26 at 11 am!

We went in this afternoon for a check up a week early because I haven't been feeling well the last few days and I wanted to just be sure everything was okay and it is, Dr. Pena refilled my inhaler to help my breathing and basically told me to relax some!

But he measured my belly and to all of our surprise (well, I had a feeling) Bryce is a big baby! We are at 24 weeks by all of our calculations, but my uterus is measuring at 31 weeks. So off we're going for an ultrasound just to see if he or she really is a very large baby like his daddy or if something else is going on.

Bryce has also become very active lately, he or she thinks that my insides are a jungle gym and that my bladder and ribs are a punching bag. But my new favorite thing is to lay down and just watch the show that he or she puts on!!

So we're now just hoping that Bryce will show us those parts when the day comes!!

Here is a picture from last weekend.... I just thought I'd share!!

Family Visit!

Two Sundays ago we went to Mom and Jims house for a little grilling for dinner and we got to sit out on the deck and enjoy the breeze. We were also showing off Bryce! This is the most pittiful picture that I have seen in a very long time! After leaving the beach last saturday with Linda, Jim, Aunt Evelyn and Uncle Rick, Beaker wanted to remind all of us who the real baby in the family is! All I was trying to do was keep from getting attacked by a wet and sandy dog!

The six of us went out the next day on the dolphin watch and had a great time! We got to see lots of dolphins, which I dont have pictures of, but there were lots around us!

On Monday night, after work, we met up with everyone again at the beach to enjoy a calm night out! Here we are showing off Bryce again!

Again, the baby of the family for now!! Isnt he adorable though!?

We decided to go for a walk down the beach with Beaker in tow! It was a really fun and relaxing walk.
