BOY OR GIRL?!?

We had another sonogram today, and it looks like we will be joining the BLUE team!

I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little disappointed at first. I hate that I was, but I wanted a girl sooooo bad. What made it even worse was that the cord was between the legs and from the front view, he was pretty sure it was a girl...I couldn't contain my excitement. Then we looked from behind and there was the winkie. *sigh*

I am not completely convinced though, because Dr. C showed me the "hamburger" from the front...there was no winkie. The cord was there and I think the cord could have been the winkie we saw. We will be scheduling a 3D/4D ultrasound within the next couple of weeks. Make no mistake about it...boy or girl...we will love him/her just the same!

Until then.... Jacob Edward it is....and we will call him Baby Jake. He looked really good...measuring right at 23 weeks. He said he weighs about 1lb3oz. Everything looked good, and I am sooooo thankful to God for that!

AND SO IT BEGINS...

This blog, that is. :) I suppose I should use this spot to tell a little about me and this blog for my very first post.

My name is Julie, and I am 31 (I think) years old. I am married to the most amazing man in the world, and I love him dearly. I could write an entire post about him and how damn good he is to me, but I will just say it in 4 words to keep it short and sweet.... HE IS THE BEST!!!

We have a rather large family between the 2 of us. He has 3 amazing kids (2 girls and 1 boy) from a previous marriage (they are all grown and married and have families of their own now)...and I had 1 boy (10)....we got married and had a set of twins (8), a sweet baby girl (she will be 2 this year, and lives in Heaven with Jesus!), and one more on the way. Add it up...that is 8 all together. LOL :)

I intend to blog about my family, friends, life, pregnancy, etc. I am going to try to keep my camera with me, so I can post lots of pics. I LOVE reading blogs that have pics to go along with each post!

I am not sure what else to type here...but I am super sleepy, and have been trying to get this blog up and running for hours. I will try to do better next time.
