We are beyond thrilled that we are having a boy! I think Carl is way excited to have a Carl Jr. running around. :) The baby is doing great! We had our ultrasound on Thursday, and everything looked PERFECT! I am praying for a healthy baby :) We got some great ultrasound photos. Baby's heart looked great - the tech kept saying how beautiful his heart looked! Got a DEFINITE gender shot ;) and we got to see his little feet and fingers!!! So cute! The only thing we didn't get to see was his profile and face! That little turkey kept putting his arms up in front of his face blocking it! We tried to get a profile shot for 20 minutes! We shook my belly, and NOTHING! That little stinker...haha :) But he was so cute just moving around! He was a little wiggle worm!
We kept it a secret from our family members until Saturday. My brother is home on leave from Iraq for 2 weeks, so we all got together on Saturday for pizza and laser tag!
So, my dad was up from St. George,
my sister Renee and her daughter Lindsay were here from Boise,
Mitch was here from Iraq - it was the perfect opportunity to reveal the sex of our baby :)
Then, I frosted the top of them with PINK and BLUE frosting - to throw them off! Then, we had everyone take a bite of the cupcake at the same time and then they got to see the inside of the cupcake with the BLUE frosting!
It was so much fun! For Carl's family - and for MacKenzie since she was in Arizona - we sent an e-mail with all the ultrasound photos and photos of the cupcakes! I hope they liked it!!

We are praying for a happy and healthy baby boy and we can't wait to meet him! Now comes the hard part...a name!
Oh! And, today marks 20 weeks for me! I'm halfway done! I can't believe it!!! So much to do!
