It's a .....



BOY!!!!


Teagan is going to have a lil' brother!!! We are so excited and feel so blessed by God for giving us such an indescribable gift of new life! Based on the initial results of the ultrasound, everything looks healthy! We praise God for this answered prayer and for His protection! What a beautiful day it was today to be able to see our lil' guy for the first time! We again stood in awe of God's workmanship as we watched Lil' Skeeter (our nickname for him now) move all around and as we viewed the chambers of his heart, the hemispheres of his brain, the blood flow to his umbilical cord....just amazing. We had our appointment early this morning and had the technician write the gender down on a piece of paper. She said she was 90% sure she was right! After Teagan's nap this afternoon, the three of us went to Dimnent Chapel(a sentimental place for us...we met there, got engaged there, were married there, found out Teagan's gender there...) at Hope College and opened our special envelope! :)

We have our C-section scheduled for September 4th! We already have his name picked out but we'll wait to share until after he's born. :)
