Week 20...And It's a Boy!

My intuition was correct!  I've felt all along that we were having a boy and that was confirmed today!

The ultrasound went great. It was so fun to see him moving around, and it's still so surreal that there's a human being in there!  Everything looks perfect and I'm measuring right on track.  We got video of him moving and kicking--he's an active little guy!  The ultrasound technician estimated my due date to be November 30th, instead of November 20th like we've been going by.  But the midwife doesn't want to change it--they will only change a due date if there is more than a 2 week difference.  So right around Thanksgiving is when Baby Boy Van Heest will make his appearance.  We're excited to be able refer to the baby as "him" and "he".  We're working on our name list too!

Here are a few photos of he and I.  A couple profile shots of baby and a peek at my 20 week baby bump.  You'll notice that I'm not wearing a towel on my head this time around :)
