Yipee! We're really excited about becoming parents and with each passing week it becomes more and more real for us. I am 18 weeks along and am feeling pretty good, besides being exhausted, getting headaches, and getting dumber everyday. We (the baby and I) are both in perfect health and everything looks great.
We found out last week (and as you can see above!!) we are having a boy! X was thrilled about that, as we know every dad wants a boy to throw the football with. After I realized that I had been "channeling" pink mentally and had already planned the nursery all in pink hues, I got over it and am really excited to be having a boy. Janette claims that they are easier than girls, so I'm holding out for that!
I love this picture of his cute little arm and fingers! He is due June 6th, so in the meantime I'll just keep working. It's been really fun to start planning things out and to start thinking baby-minded. We feel really blessed to be expecting this little guy and we'll keep you up to date with any news!
p.s. sorry if these sonograms freak anyone out. I know they sometimes look weird, but I think they're cute, but I know I'm biased.

Congratulations Em! He looks so cute. I love ultrasound pictures. In PR they give you an ultrasound every time you go in for an appointment (strange I know) so I have a whole stack of pictures. It's fun to see what they're doing inside your tummy. I'm so excited for you Em.
Congrats Emily! I know you already told me, but i'm so excited for you! And I love to see the sonogram pictures.
My email address is jessica.jones@legacytexas.com if you could send me those pictures of your fireplace that would be great! Thanks so much! I'm excited to see it!!
Please tell me why I'm crying? I'm so happy for you guys!!!!! And I don't know first hand that boys are easier than girls ... I was just told that. lol. I'm sure that others have had another experience. Please, no hate mail! lol. I do love girls, I'm just CRAZY about my boy. And biased.
Really though, I can't say congrats enough!!! Baby Beckham is in my prayers every night! Stay healthly ... and call me if you need a hand painting ... I'll send Gary. lol.
Congratulations, Emily and X! Little boys are a lot of fun. I will have to see your little guy the next time we are in town (which won't be until after he is born since our second boy is due April 12th).

Hooray! We are so excited for you guys and Baby Boy Beckham is definitely going to be a knockout. I definitely think NZ and IT need to be united...who cares about age, right? So excited for more updates! And pregnancy pictures!!! :)
Yea! Congratulations! He does look adorable! :) And as a mom of both sexes, I believe girls are easier, but boys are just so much fun because they're tougher and you can wrestle and roar like big animals together. Great times are in your future! Now....where are the prego pictures of you!? You know we expect them monthly to track your growing progress. :)

Congrats again! You are a darling pregnant Mommy-to-be! And like I said, there is nothing like the first one. That little guy will always hold a special place in your heart!
It was so fun to get to know you better tonight. We must get together again soon!
