I think I forgot to mention the sex of our baby. At our last ultrasound (Feb. 2) the doctor said that she was 80% sure that it was going to be a boy (there was a white-ish ball between the legs!). At the previous ultrasound because of the way the baby was angled, she couldn't tell the sex, but it seems like this last time she was pretty sure. . . at least 80% sure. She said that sometimes they think it's going to be a boy and it ends up being a girl. I guess nothing is for sure. My mom also told me that I was supposed to be a boy! In Japan, they do an ultrasound at each appointment, which is exciting, because we can see the baby developing at the different stages. The doctor pointed out the developing eyes, and we could see the brain, heart beating, and even the bones in it's hands! Each time, they take measurements of the arms, legs, head and tell us approximately how heavy the baby is. From our last appointment it was 455grams (not sure how heavy that is, but you can imagine it being about 8 ounces I think. I'm just imagining an 8 ounce Outback prime rib in my tummy!)
So, now we can focus on boy's names! However, we can never agree on one! We're leaning towards a Japanese name that sounds good in English too. Actually we may have finally agreed on one that K picked out. I just have to let it grow on me. OR see if I can think of something better.
