IT'S A BOY!

IT'S A BOY!
We had our 19 week ultrasound on June 14th
and everything looked completely healthy!
He currently weighs approximately 10 ounces and
is still due to be born on or around November 10th!
The first picture is of his little tiny foot (upper left corner).
It's a little over an inch long (2.93 cm).
In the second picture you can see his right leg,
part of his left leg, and in between his legs :)
We debated about sharing this picture but
we thought some of you might get a kick out of it.
The last two are profile pictures and if you look closely
you can see his ears and all of his vertebrae,
among other more obvious things.
It's been a fun few weeks having my sister and nieces in town
and getting to see Jonathan again so soon.
We're so thankful he was able to come out on
such short notice to see our ultrasound.
It wouldn't have been the same telling him the news over the phone.
I also started feeling the baby move about 10 days ago!
He's actually kicking me right now as I type :)
While Jonathan was here we went shopping and
bought baby bedding and a few little boy outfits.
We also looked at cribs and strollers and rockers and all that fun stuff.
We're planning on registering in FL when I'm there in July.
Jonathan is really looking forward to picking stuff out!
We haven't come up with a definite name yet.
We think we're sure but we want to give ourselves the
opportunity to change our minds before he's born!
Other updates...
I'm completely finished working nights (praise the Lord).
Jonathan starts Primary (second phase of flight school) tomorrow.
Take care and keep in touch.
We miss everyone very much.
Love you!

Ok, I am sitting here crying now! Tears of aahhh....and joy of course! What a wonderful fathers day. If Jonathan could have been here with these other 3 crazy fathers it would have even been better! Food & fun as always!:) Thank you for sharing baby Bryants pictures with us! All of them! HA! Ha! By the way, you are looking a little out of shape there in that swim suit Mrs Bryant! JK-you look beautiful!!
Amber & the girls had a great time as we could tell from all the vacation pictures you both gave us. So thankful Jonathan got to be with you for your appointment. We love and miss you, Mom & Dad xo

It was a little hard to shout out in Walmart but I tried to contain myself when I got the call!! The pictures are amazing and what a precious gift from God. This Bryant will be a ball hitting and field playing baseball player for sure. I promise not to push his artistic side! ha. Yes, I am just a bit excited about this baby. love you two, MOM Bryant
