Yes ladies and gentleman you read that right. My blog title is the name of our SON.

We went for our 20 week scan at the peri office and learned that i was in face carrying a baby boy. I have felt from day one of my pregnancy i was carrying our son. Since the scan at 20 weeks i have had 3 doctors review the pics and 2 more ultrasounds and all have said boy. We get to go back to Stork Vision on July 23 for a rescan since they got it wrong at 17 weeks. Now few pictures of our son for you all to ohh and ahh at.
