Baby Boy Blake :)

Well it's official....we are expecting a little boy! Here is a picture from the ultrasound. He is an avid thumb sucker already, and we as dentists can't let that go on for long! We are thinking about calling him Brady, middle name not decided yet. My due date has been moved up a few days to January 14 because he is a little bigger than they thought initially, but right on track. I had the pleasure of going to my childhood friend Aimee's wedding yesterday and got to see several old friends from when I went to Covenant Christian school! It was really nice. I also was able to talk to my mentor Dr. Pete, and he said my old friend Marsha had seen I was pregnant, so I'm sending her a message, if this is where she saw it, send me an email sometime!!! Mihorn@vt.edu. I will be expecting it ;) We have had a lazy weekend here at the Blake household and have just gotten in from the pool and exercising, so I'm going to go take a shower. That's all for now!

Hey All, it's been a while since we posted last. I have been trying to wait until we find out what the baby is before writing again, but that won't be until next Friday. When we went for our last doctor visit, the baby was moving around quite a bit but gave us a good "view" all the same. Unfortunately, the ultrasound tech wouldn't give us a definite on what the baby might be but was inclined to think it could possibly be a boy. We asked the doctor what she thought and she debunked the tech and said both girl and boy "parts" look the way our baby's did at that early stage so there couldn't be any certainty until the next appt. Oh well! I have been looking at different nurseries for either gender and can't wait to start planning when we finally are told what it will be! Not much other news going on....just getting extremely busy at work. I am gaining wait (boo) and am not very excited about it, but I guess it's going to have to start sometime! I've just gained around 5 pounds, but that is definitely quite a bit to me, especially since it's hard to fit into my jeans at this point! I'm around 4 and a half months and was hoping to keep wearing my regular clothes a little longer, but I don't think it's going to happen! I haven't scanned in our last ultrasound pictures, but will try to do that later and add to this post tonight. Until then, everyone have a great day!
