It's a Boy (Confirmed)

So, a couple of weeks ago we found out we were having a boy, but were told that it was an 80% chance. Today Kristin and I went for our 3D/4D ultrasound a confirmed that our little monkey is in fact a boy....picture below, which in on taken from underneath him.



Our now named child (keeping a secret) was not very cooperative today. He was moving all over. Every time we tried to get a look at his face, he either covered it with his hands or he would turn all the way around. Kristin would then turn sideways on the table, which resulted in the monkey going the opposite way. The technician at one point made Kristin eat chocolate hoping the sugar would get him to move so we could see him more clearer. He kept on putting the umbilical cord in front of his face. Today's experience was nothing less than amazing. To see our child like is was there in our hands was incredible. We watched him smile, suck his thumb, put his finger in his ear, wave, turn and twist etc. He still has not packed on the fat yet, so we saw more bone structure than actual features. We did see his hands and feat very clearly though. Here are some pictures with short blurb explaining what you're looking at.

Right hand by ear with left hand over face. His head was turned to the side:


Picture of his face with his foot off on the right side of the picture:


"The Thinker" pose. Side profile of his face with his thumb up:


Waving at us. His right hand waving with his left hand rubbing his eye:


Looking down on his face. His skull bones have not fused together so you can see some spaces on the top of his head:


We got a CD with 25 picture on it and a DVD which had 25 minutes of our little monkey moving around. We are so excited and cannot believe we are half way there!

Those pictures are amazing, did I see a little piece of insulation near his bum? Curious George the monkey is his name. Anthony you will have to explain the insulation story to people who don't know.

Those pictures are amazing! I think in the "thinker" picture that his profile looks a bit like Anthony. It's probably too early to tell, but that's what I thought immediately after seeing the picture. See you guys in just a week and a half!

Oh, you're going to tell US the name, right? Right.
