Impatient !!!!!

So Caleb and I were very anxious to find out the sex of our baby. Problem is, I'm only 15 weeks along and my next ultrasound would probably be around 20 -22 weeks. I could not wait that long! So Caleb, Regan, and I went down to Victorville Elite Diagnostic Imaging. We paid 40 dollars for a gender check! Before we went, I called and asked what the ideal age of the fetus is before you can tell the sex. She said between 22 and 28 weeks. I knew that was a crock, so I told her I would take my chances. I was so glad I got the same stenographer that had done my first ultrasound! Remember, it was when the Doctor could not find our peanuts' heart beat. It was cool to see how much the baby had grown! Right away it was evident that the sex was visible! The stenographer said this baby is a 150 % BOY. Yes, you heard me! Deep inside I felt it was a boy all along. But honestly, I'm really scared! I know nothing about boys and quite frankly, little boys scare me to death! I always picture those naughty little boys in sacrament meeting, screaming and giving their mothers a run for their money. I'm still am getting used to the whole idea, but I'm sure by the time he is here (it's really weird to say "he"), he will be loved very much. Regan saw me scanning the ultrasound pictures onto the computer and she said, "Baby brother." She will be a good big sister!

Our little boy would not hold still! After the ultrasound Caleb asked me if I could see him bouncing all around. I told him, "I feel him bouncing around." Later, Regan was just looking at the pictures that I copied to the computer and she said, "Baby Brother, I yike Baby brother! Cute." She's such a cutie!

In the picture above you can see the two hemisphere's of the brain. That's pretty cool. Even though he still looks like an alien, I'm sure he will be handsome. Only time will tell. Only 25 more weeks or 175 days until his birthday.

Happiest Place On Earth

Hope everyone is enjoying the new year as much as we are! A few days after Christmas, Caleb's parents came down for a visit. Regan was shy for about 5 minutes after their arrival and then got right back into her normal, "I love grandma and no one else," routine. I guess I can't blame her, she is really fun! I took on the roll of disciplinarian. Every time she did something she usually would get in trouble for, she would call out for grandma to save her from corner duty. While Stewart's were here, we went to Disneyland for the day. I was really excited because I had not been since the 7th grade! We prepped Regan by showing her pictures of the characters before hand so she was aware of Mickey and Minnie Mouse. We arrived at Disneyland right as the park opened. Every time we saw a picture of Mickey Mouse, we were notified by Regan. She excitedly screamed, "Mickey Mouse!" He was, as you know, all over the park so we heard this quite often! We took Regan on the Dumbo ride after checking in. At first, she was hesitant. But once she learned you get to push a button, she wanted to go again when the ride was over. She tried to get in another Dumbo seat. Caleb, Darrell, and I went on "Splash Mountain" which I had never been on. We also went on "Tower of Terror," which I loved! Then we went on "Soaring Over California." That was fun! Later we took Regan on the "Jungle Tour" and "Pirates of the Caribbean" ride. Then we took her to the "Bugs Life" 3D experience where she had a lot of fun. Regan had a really fun time and we were glad we were able to go! We all had a great time!

The car ride to Disneyland. She is ready to go bright and early!

Here we are, at the happiest place on earth!
