Seth Kyle Thomas


I'm sure as a mom I will say this many more times as I have already said it a half dozen times during this pregnancy, but yesterday was one of the best days of my life. Our appointment was at 2:00 so the beginning of the day was hard to get through! I tossed and turned all night long and woke up feeling very anxious. This whole time we had been so excited to find out about the gender that I hadn't thought about everything else this appointment was about. So much more important stuff. By 12:00 my "Christmas belly" had officially set in and the iced caramel machiatto from Starbucks that my friend (so much more than my boss at this point) brought me, although delicious, was not helping! : ) I smiled the whole way to the appointment and was anxious to catch up with Jeremy. Once we got there I waddled into the office trying to not pee my pants (again with the coffee) and we anxiously waited in the waiting room! Luckily there was only one other person there when we got there so our wait was not long at all. Our ultrasound technician was so nice and talked us through the whole scan, as I'm sure they are supposed to do. She asked us if we were finding out the gender and that was one of the first things she went to find out. I knew almost immediately. Our little man was very cooperative in letting us know : ) I of course started crying and my eyes continued to leak through the whole appointment. Words cannot describe how it felt to both FEEL and SEE my little boy at the same time. I can't even imagine how those feelings will grow when I get to hold him in my arms. Jeremy went into the appointment really wanting a little girl, but as soon as the tech said it was a boy his eyes lit up. I knew exactly what he was thinking and after the appointment he confirmed his excitement of all the things he will get to enjoy doing with his son : ) As I said, our ultrasound technician was awesome. She talked us through each measurement and scan, the blood flow, etc. Everything is where it's supposed to be, measuring and growing as it should! He is measuring right on track at 21 weeks and is just shy of one pound - how crazy is that?! He is in the breech position but we have plenty of time for him to flip around. He LOVES to lay on my right side. I find him there every morning and that's where he was camped out for the whole scan. His heart rate was 133 and he likes to suck his thumb and play with his toes - could he be any cuter?


We love our little boy so much! I can't believe the next time we see him he'll be in my arms! Hurry up July <3
