It's a Boy!

                       Dan and I are happy to announce that we are having a baby boy!  

We are super excited to start a blog to share the development of Baby John Michael.  We found out that we were pregnant at four weeks, and had some hiccups in week 6 1/2 & 8.  It was very difficult not to tell any friends or most of the family that we were pregnant because we wanted to make sure everything was Ok first.  At 21 weeks 3 days, everything is going well and baby boy is doing awesome!  His due date is November 23, 2011.  


Last Thursday 7/7/11 was when we found out that we were having a boy, Dan was ecstatic and I almost jumped off the table in excitement.  We decided to tell our parents by making turkey onesies with the lettering in blue.  

 

Dan is busy around the house putting in wood floors and finishing the basement so we have more space with little guy arrives. The dogs don't seem to mind the baby's stuff taking over their former bed room, they are just skeptical of baby's stroller and my growing stomach.  Still not sure how they are going to react to not being center of attention.  Rowdy is a very needy loving dog that constantly has to lick your hand and receive pets and Rocky well, he is an old man who just lays on his bed and is content with doing nothing.  They are very spoiled dogs!!  We are slowly getting them acclimated to the baby's laundry detergent so that it is not a big shock when he arrives. 

We have our 22 week appt coming up this Thursday 7/21/11
