It's a boy!

I had my appointment this morning for my growth scan ultrasound and we found out that the baby is a boy!!  It was hard to tell much of anything at first.  Every time the tech would try to focus on something he would squirm away, lol.  She finally got used to his movement and was able to get all the info she needed and a few pics for us.  He did not seem too fond of showing his face, but we did get a good money shot to assure us that he is indeed a he. 

In this pic I'm not sure if he's waving, covering his face, or sucking his thumb

Finding out the gender seems to make the whole thing a little more real to me.  Knowing exactly what is growing inside me and being able to put a name with the baby makes it so much more personal, I didn't know it was possible to feel more connected to the baby but I do now!  His name is William Joseph, William is my dad's name and Jose is Matt's dad's name, we decided to go with the English version which is Joseph.  I still can't believe that Matt and I made this miracle together, it's so exciting!  I can't wait to meet my little boy!!
