Hot Diggity Dog!

It sounds like Summer will still reign as princess! Paul was so proud today when we got an ultra sound of the baby. We took a look a couple days ago and saw what might be boy parts, but were still pretty undecided. When we went in today the tech scanned my belly, gave Paul a friendly shove and said, "Are you kidding me? That's a BOY! Look at that thing, it can't be a labia!" Of course Paul was beaming with a "that's my boy" expression on his face :) We looked around a little more and could see the baby opening and closing his mouth, moving his hands, sucking his thumb... it was unbelievable! We are so excited to experience raising a boy. It will be completely different, but so much fun.

We shared the news with our families....

Lola: "What?!?! Yay!! We're gonna have a batotoy!!" (Don't ask...she has her own way of expressing things) :)

Lisa: "Oh mi goodness.. I'm gonna be an uncle!" (Wait a minute...??)

Lolo: "Whoa that's big, it looks like he has an erection!" (Would you expect any other comment from my dad?)

Paul's parents were a little confused at first...

Lora: "Hi...Paul wanted me to call you because he was too embarrassed to to tell you the news himself...."

Grandma R: "awwww...it's a GIRL!....well, maybe next time..." :)

We finally came out and told them they were having a grandson and they shared in the excitement, too!

So this is a shot where you can ("clearly") see (per the radiology resident) that this is a boy with an image of the bladder and two ("obvious") testicle sacs:

I'm no radiologist, but there IS something pointing up between those two legs, right? :)
