Sticks and Snails and Puppy Dog Tails...

...that's what little BOYS are made of!!  Logan and I couldn't be happier that baby #1 will be a little Logan!! AKA Elijah Logan Jorgensen :) When we went to my first appointment at 11 weeks, there were new signs around the doctor's office that said they are now offering an ultra sound at 15 weeks for gender check only so we (or I) jumped all over that!  We didn't tell anybody we were planning on finding out because we wanted to come home and surprise everyone.  I was so excited to find out that I couldn't sleep very well the night before.  We hadn't had an ultra sound yet so as the nurse was getting everything ready, Logan says: "What if there's two in there?!" I would have died.  There's definitely only ONE baby.  It was so cool to actually see the baby for the first time.  I can't really explain the feeling but all those mommies out there know exactly what I'm talking about.  She measured the heart beat first, which sounded great, and then froze the screen and said: "Okay, it's really obvious what you guys are having, can you tell??"  I had absolutely no clue and Logan guessed girl and she was like: "Nope, it's a little boy!"  There was something so neat about hearing her say that!  We were both so excited!  Because I'm only 15 weeks, she didn't do any of the medical/anatomy check yet but we were able to watch him flip around for a few minutes and she took a couple profile pictures for us :) It all still seems pretty surreal but we couldn't be happier!  After the appointment we went to the mall and bought little Eli his first present!

We have had so much fun the past few days calling Eli by his name rather than saying "baby" or "it" or switching off between "he" and "she" :) A lot of people are surprised to hear that we decided on a name so fast but I'm happy we did!  If we were having a girl I doubt we would have agreed already but Elijah Logan is a boy name we've both really liked for a while so it was a pretty easy decision!  I can't wait to meet our little man and hope Logan is ready to make the money I now plan on spending! :)
