Joy's New Sibling Will Be . . .

Phillip and Joy joined me for the big ultrasound today, and we learned that Joy will be getting a little brother in February. It actually wasn't much of a surprise--Phillip and I both had a feeling beforehand that this baby was going to be a boy. And no, we haven't picked out a name yet, though "Hezekiah" would provide nice alliteration with his surname. :)


Here's a picture of our little man smiling at the camera. We're really looking forward to getting to know him better in a few months.

We weren't surprised either to find out Sarah was a girl, since we had that feeling where you just know. Isn't it interesting how we can feel these little spirits even before we can see or touch them? They truly are little miracles.
Congratulations! We look forward to meeting both your little ones next summer at the reunion.

Congratulations! I am excited for you guys! Bring on the trains, cars, and Costco-sized Band Aid boxes!

Congrats to you all. We are excited about adding another boy to the mix of little cousins at the next reunion!!!

Congratulations!!! Little boys are so much fun. :) :) I can't wait to meet the little guy.

It was SO fun to see you last weekend! I'm so glad everything is going so well for you.

That is really exciting! Although, I don't think I'd know what to do with a boy. . . I'm sure Joy will be a great sister!

I'm not sure what to do with a little boy, either. Of course, when Joy arrived I wasn't really sure what to do with a baby of ANY variety, but I learned as I went and I'm sure that will happen this time, too.

At least, that's what I keep telling myself . . . :)

Congratulations! Boys are awesome and so much fun...glad you have some serious intuition. Every time I thought I was having one sex, it always turned out to be the opposite. :)

My mom guessed wrong every time, too. And since those were the days before ultrasounds, when she went into labor with me she was still planning to name me Christopher. :)

Congratulations!!! Somehow I missed the fact that you were even pregnant. That's so exciting! It will be fun for Joy to have a little brother.

Congratulations!
Hezekiah Hendrickson has a nice ring to it. =)

congrats!!! now we'll both have one of each ... how great!

boys are fun ... just completely different than girls (or so i am told, i'll find out as soon as finley decides to wake up). they are wild and crazy and active. they eat dirt, etc. it's lots of fun!
