The Official Results!

Well, the official results are in. And.....it's still a Brody. : ) The below picture is pretty self-explanatory. He was being shy at first but then, with some coaxing, decided to spread 'em.


My mom and Rory both went with me to the ultrasound. Unfortunately, we didn't have a very fun tech. She just did her measurements and didn't let us do much admiring of our very, very cute little boy. The ultrasound was on the day that I was exactly 21 weeks and Brody already weighs 449 grams, or 14.9 ounces. That's only 1.1 ounces shy of a pound! What a porker! Below is a profile picture of Brody. Isn't he so cute?? What you're seeing by his face is part of his arm. He isn't much for photographs yet as he kept his arms over his face for the whole ultrasound.

In other big news, I'm feeling him kick now. That started around 19 weeks. Rory was even able to feel Brody kick one night when he was being extra rowdy. I think this whole process is finally becoming more real to Rory now that he's seen Brody on the ultrasound and felt him moving in my belly. I just wish we could split up this weight gain somehow. : ) Everyone tells me to enjoy it, though. But they're not the ones getting asked if they're having twins!

Anyways, Brody is healthy and happy for now. We'll just keep truckin' along and hope that April doesn't take too long to arrive.

Baby Brody Hoke is 22 weeks and counting......
