Snips and Snails...

and puppy dog tails,
that's what little boys are made of.

Today we had our "big" ultrasound, which showed we have a healthy baby boy on the way! I think Patrick and I were both taken aback at the news, yet we're both so very excited to have a son to carry on the Moss name. Patrick had a dream a few nights ago that this baby was a girl, yet it was only a dream! He's really looking forward to playing GI Joe's with him, though he has a few more years for that.

We now have the daunting task of naming our little peanut. I don't think there are any prospects yet, so we have a lot of discussing to do!

Oh, we love him so much already!

Congrats!!!!! Thankful to hear the little guy is healthy!!! Thanks for sharing with us!!! The pics are GREAT - so clear!!! We look forward to learning his name.....I've always thought there are a ton more great boy names than girl names....but that's just me! ; )

What fun!!! I love my little man so much...so purely boy. I think you'll appreciate both even more now that you'll see first hand all their differences. Praying for a healthy pregnancy!
