IT'S A BOY!!!!

Well we had the 2nd Ultrasound on July 31st! When we walked in the office she asked us if we wanted to know the sex of the baby and we said YES! She said she starts at the head and makes all the necessary measurements and then works her way down, so in other words – be patient!

Keep in mind, that at the 1st ultrasound, the ultrasound tech had told us 80% girl! But Trey never believed she was correct, he kept saying “She doesn’t know what she was talking about. I know what I saw. She’s wrong”. He was confident it was a boy - he was holding out for the 20% chance!

So she made all the measurements – the circumference of the head is about 6” and the circumference of the body just under 6”. They said everything was developing just fine thank God - brain, spinal cord, heart, kidneys, blood flow, bladder, no clef lip. He's about 9" long and about 10 ounces in weight! And moving around in there like crazy!

Then she made her way down to the lower body and said “There you go – plain as day – IT’S A BOY!!!” Needless to say I was shocked, but very happy, as was Trey! We were both smiling from ear to ear! So now the name is easy - for those of you that don’t know Trey’s name is Edmond Dantes III (and Trey is French for three). So we will continue that - Edmond Dantes IV and call him Dantes! So we all wait in excitement for the arrival of Dantes!

Well that’s all the excitement for us for now. Not much going on, just spending a lot of time in the pool or in the A/C. It has been about 10 degrees hotter than the normal lately, so very hot here in Texas!
