The results are in----It's a BOY!

Top: Well isn't that just the cutest little 22 week old profile you ever did see? Cute little cranium with a cute little nose. What a sweet boy! (First time moms are funny eh?)

We were so excited to find out the gender. We had the Ultrasound on Monday June 29th. He had a 6 guest audience to hear the announcement of the exciting news. We had Grandma and Grandpa Rosenhan, Gina, Cyndy (both coworkers that were there for the "reveal" of the pregnancy test back in February. Got that little

beauty on film;-) and of course his proud mom and dad.

Second pic down: This is my most favorite picture. He is giving us a "Thumbs up"-- Parental approval and encouragement already! Much needed ;-} A positive and optimistic child to look forward too!!! What could be better? (Center of the black space in the middle is a little thumb pointing straight up. 4 little fingers are curled to the left of the thumb and the arm is extending down and to the right.)

-----BATTLE of the SEXES----- (picture not included ;-)

So the story goes that Gina and Cyndy both have their own "method" of guessing baby genders. Neither of them had ever been wrong. Gina uses the Chinese Calender which predicted a boy. Cyndy looks for a "Y" shape in your eye and depending on which eye determines the gender of the baby. My "Y" was in the girl eye. So we had a "Battle of the Sexes" (hee hee) going on in the office.

As we were waiting for the whole party to join us in the exam room, I asked the US tech to wait until everyone was there before he told us the gender. He said, "Oh ok, I know what it is already." A bit later, after he told us that it was a boy he also said, "This was the most obvious boy I have ever seen. There is no doubt about this boy!" As you can tell, there is no shame in the Barlow family =D

So let me explain these pictures. Above: 4 chambers of the heart. (The 4 black holes 2 on top of 2, in the center of the grayish mass in the center of the picture)

Below: Once super cute looking "Hawaiian" sandal foot. Perfect amount of space between the Big Toe and all the others ;) (center of the picture, looking at the bottom of the foot. Toes pointing to the Left and heal to the Right.)

Below: The most handsome pair of legs and feet. Looks like some athlete legs to me!(Center of the picture. Baby is on his side. One leg is above the other with a huge black whole between them. The feet are on the Left and if you follow them to the right you will see the calves then knees and then the upper thighs are on the right before the picture fades out.)
