Through the Ether

Snork!

Snork!

Snork!

We saw you today. One day shy of 19 weeks along. You emerged from the haze of my belly doing somersaults and roundhouses.

You have a penis.

WE ARE HAVING A BOY!!!!

We are so excited. We have been hoping you would be a boy since 13 weeks when they guessed you were a boy and now we get to really feel like you are revealing yourself to us piece by piece.

We got to see the hemispheres of your brain (including the cerebellum), your femurs, your 4-chambered heart, your kidneys, and all the blood flow through your life support snork that attaches to me.

You measured a week ahead and your profile and belly already look perfectly formed like a cherubic vision of my visions.

Daddy and I love you so so much, darling. Thank you for the slightly-belated birthday present and for not hiding your wares when we were peeking at you.

Did you enjoy Buffalo, NY and the snowfall? We made a snow totem pole and got to meet your 100-year old great grandfather. He lives in a gorgeous mansion run by Irish nuns. He cusses and has the memory of an elephant and walked in doing a victory dance to his own party.

You come from good stock and you are arriving to so much love.

<3
