Well, I intended to add a little slideshow of some recent pictures and sonograms, but I've yet to figure out that aspect of blogging. So I'm going to try to add a picture or two in this post....I think it worked!

As you all know, we're expecting a baby boy, James. He is due September 20th, but we'll be ready for him if he wants to come sooner!

The top picture is our most recent 3D picture of James, taken two weeks ago. Some people have a hard time telling 'what's what' in 3D sonograms, but I think it's pretty easy to pick out his button nose and yawning mouth. His hands are up by his cheeks. During this ultrasound, he even blinked at us a few times. It was very sweet! He's already a big boy, over 5 pounds with five or six weeks to go.

The bottom picture, obviously, is of his nursery. The artwork was done by a girlfriend of mine, the quilt by my mom, the Ricky Racoon peeking out of the crib was made by Mark's mom--we're excited about his room! We just need to find a new place for all of the internet cords on the bottom left of the photo. And I need to re-organize his changing table.

I love the "touch" that Jenny's paintings add! James is a lucky little guy...
