Much to Be Thankful For…

…including, our BABY BOY!!!

(hiding his lil’ face)

That’s right, Anthony and I had a well-timed appointment for an anatomy scan on Wednesday afternoon… just as the office was hours away from closing for the Thanksgiving holiday.  We got to find out the gender of our little Bebe right before Thanksgiving!  Let’s just say, our son is not shy.  He gave up the goods pretty much free and clear.

We are also thankful that he is seemingly perfect in every way.  All of his measurements checked out with flying colors.. his skull, bones, heart, heartbeat, kidneys spine..everything looks real good.  Thankful too, that my health is pretty well up there on the scale of awesomeness, despite a well-stocked cabinet of sweets and arsenal of soda in the fridge at home.   For which, don’t get me wrong, I am very thankful  🙂
