Hi Ladies,
We had our a/s today!
Wonderful news - the baby looks healthy! OB said I look good too :-)
We found out that we are TEAM BLUE. :-) So we have started calling the baby Martin/Marty. DH says he is going to buy the baby a denim jacket! We shall see...
We are planning to surprise our families on Mother's Day, but we might do it sooner if we have the chance. My parents are out of town until the middle/end of April. I really want to tell them in person.
I think I will wrap up an "It's a Boy!" balloon in a box and give it to my mom and MIL. That way when they open it, the balloon will pop up. I am open to other ideas though, if anyone has some.
This is a profile of Martin. The white/gray blob by his face is his hand.
:-)

"People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality."
