We went today for our sonogram @ 26 weeks. We decided to find out the sex of our baby-as we didn't find out with the others I figured why not. Besides Jacob really wants a brother (and I really want him to have one too) so I figured if its a girl we will probably need time to prepare him. So Keith, Jacob and I took baby sister to school this morning and we headed off to the doctors office. We were the first one there so we were first in line for a sonogram. (which is great because apparently they only schedule them every other Tuesday now and he tells all his patients to be there at 9am for sonograms, regardless of their actuall appointment time). Anyway, we got in, told her we wanted to find out the sex this time around. She gets to looking and the baby is not only breeched but bottom first. Which apparently is the worst position to be in when are looking for the sex of the baby!! So she proceeds to take measurements of the head and legs and make sure everything is looking good. In the meantime she is wiggling my belly trying to get the baby to wake up and move around. She goes back to the bottom and tries to look for the sex. She sounds really discourage, saying she can take a guess but she really doesn't have a good look because the baby won't cooperate and move so she can see. So she gave us her best guess. As she was about to put the wand down, she said, oh! there it is! Baby moved, so she gets the wand moving around and the baby has moved enough for her to see..............
IT'S A BOY!!!
Jacob says when he turns the picture sideways it looks like a jelly fish!!! ha..so cute!!

Congrats! Glad the tech was finally able to let you know. I had to wait another 6 or 8 weeks to find out with my daughter, because she was hiding. That was frustrating!
