It's a Boy - 19 weeks

On Dec. 30th we went in and had an ultrasound that revealed that we are having a baby boy!!! We would have taken either but are VERY excited. Chase hasn't been able to quit smiling since. I think that we are going to have a very active little guy as I can feel him moving around now. His favorite time to start going crazy is right as I lie down to go to sleep so that tends to keep me up a bit but it's hard to complain when it is such a cool feeling. Last weekend we got the crib and the new dresser set up in his room and it is beautiful. It is still a little strange to see a crib in that room but somthing that I'm sure we'll get used to.

Chase is still working hard and loving his residency at Virginia Mason. He started his Burn rotation at Harborview yesterday so that should be interesting but at least it is only for 4 weeks.

I will try and update this every couple of weeks or so or anytime that something important happens. I think that it is just a good way to keep all of our out of state family and friends up to date on all of the exciting things that are happening. Love you all!

Stats for now: Baby should be about 6 inches from head to rump and weigh around 8 1/2 oz. He is starting to get hair and develop his senses (so I'll have to start watching my mouth). My weight gain so far is about 1.4 lbs but it sure looks/feels like more! Belly picture is a little dark but you get the idea.
