It's a.....

BOY! On 5/21/09 we found out that we are having a little boy. We were so excited to find this out and it was amazing to get to see him again. There was one small concern on the ultrasound, they found a cyst on his brain which they explained is usually nothing, but it can be a marker for chromosomal diseases. Because of this they set us up for a follow up ultrasound 4 weeks later at a high tech center.

On 6/16 we went to the level 2 ultrasound and the detail was incredible. We are so thankful for everyone’s prayers; the ultrasound showed the cyst was completely gone. Also, the ultrasound checked everything; his brain, heart stomach, everything, and the doctor said it all looked wonderful. We have a healthy little boy growing inside. We had decided shortly after finding out about the cyst to leave it in God’s hands and it was a wonderful sense of relief knowing that everything is ok. Now to start working on little Rylan’s nursery.

Mother's Day 5/10/09

I celebrated my first Mother's day morning with James. He gave me a very sweet card when he got home. Then it was off to church and lunch with mom and dad Hughes and John and Amanda who was also celebrating her first mother's day. The picture is of her and I after lunch. It was such a nice day and I can't believe that by this time next year our child will be here and be about 6 months old. It is just so amazing.

Here is the first ultrasound picture that was done on 3/20/2009 8 weeks and 2 days. We couldn't believe that there was a little person growing.
