Just for comparison's sake, here I am at week 5...
And here's week 16...
Definitely getting bigger and bigger. Here's what our little man Steven Jude is looking like in there this week. He looks so big in there! I keep waiting to feel him move - I hope any day now...

Our little man!
Almost everyone "knew" it was a girl, myself included, and almost everyone was wrong! We were so shocked, but our little man is on his way! The ultrasound was so cool - we go to see him kicking his legs, trying to suck his thumb, rolling all around, and we think even hiccuping. We were able to see the brain, spine, ribs, fingers, toes, it was so incredible! She said he has a good strong heartbeat, and that he was very active, and I can't believe after watching him move so much, that I still haven't felt what I definitely know is him moving. I've felt a couple little things that I assume are just gas bubbles, or digestion or whatever else goes on, but I guess could possibly be him. But so far no definite flutters. Soon, I think.
Here's my favorite picture... I love his little face. And I could be wrong, but I think he's giving us a little thumbs up.
And here is another profile where you can see little feet.
So we stole Brad and Jackie's idea of a cool way to find out, so I have to give them credit. We had the nurse seal in an envelope that first picture that says boy or girl, went to Babies R Us, picked out a pink and blue outfit, and gave the envelope to the cashier. Then we walked around for a few minutes while they opened the envelope and rang up the correct outfit. Then they wrapped it for us. We took the present down to the beach (where Steven proposed to me) and opened it to find out if it was a girl or a boy. It was so much more fun and special than just having a stranger tell you girl or boy.
Proud papa can't wait to play golf with his son! I'll post a 16 week belly pic later this week. Definitely getting bigger...!
