Ultrasound Pictures

Here are a few pictures of our little boy. We love him so much already.

Head and face

Little Murray Baby is just chillin' with his legs crossed.

 He seems to like hide and go seek already.

I can't believe he fits inside Lisa!

IT'S A BOY!

We're going to have a baby boy!  We had an ultrasound yesterday at the hospital, with a specialist in Maternal Fetal Medicine. It was nice to have a doctor who knows exactly what to look for and get some extra time during the ultrasound. We were going to have the ultrasound next week, but something came up for me and I had to reschedule earlier since Vance is leaving town next week.

We were a little nervous/very excited. We wanted to prepare ourselves for anything that could happen. But everything in the ultrasound looks great and he is a healthy boy! We were able to get a DVD of most of the ultrasound, so that will be nice to be able to watch again.

This morning I went running (actually a slow jog- I need to be honest) and went by a garage sale (luckily I'm still able to jog at this point). I ran home, grabbed a couple bucks, drove back, and got a couple onesie's and baby outfits that were still in good condition. We are very blessed and excited to meet him in a few months!

Graduation

Vance graduated with his bachelor's in mechanical engineering last week! He did very well this last year, including quite a bit of newspaper and even TV coverage for his capstone project. We are so excited that he has accomplished this major milestone and are now looking forward to going to Indiana soon!

THANKS MOM!

Below is a post at 18 weeks (poking out on purpose a bit to accentuate the bump) and 16 weeks at the bottom. Thank you to Janessa, for lending me some new clothes! We have our next appointment with the OBGYN on May 10th, and an ultrasound on May 11th. We would be so happy if our baby was a boy or girl, but mostly are hoping for a healthy and happy baby! Take the poll to guess if you think it is a boy or a girl. Oh, and we are having ONE baby. We had an ultrasound a couple of months ago and there appeared to be one baby. But I guess you never know!

Purdue University!

Vance and I will be moving this summer to West Lafayette, Indiana! Vance officially accepted the offer last week to Purdue University's Mechanical Engineering graduate program. We are excited for the many new changes this brings. Meanwhile, Vance will be completing his last day of class at BYU tomorrow! He has been working so hard, and hopefully finals for him will go smoothly.

Some good things have happened lately. Last weekend my sister, her son Jared, and I camped in Moab for a couple of days. We hiked the Arches National Park and really loved its beauty and warm weather.

Jared was a great boy the whole trip, but on the way back he had a hard time! We brought him along for entertainment. We stayed at a pretty good campsite. It wasn't as primitive as we were hoping, but it had a fire pit which was our top priority. We were able to make a fire, eat tin foil dinners, smores, roast Starburst candies, talk, and then try to sleep. It was actually a rough night, being soooo cold. There was frost covering the entire tent when we woke up. But we loved the experience.

Vance and I went to the Saturday afternoon session of general conference for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Above is a picture of Kelsey, my grandpa Kindt, and I. We attended his mission reunion in Salt Lake City that Easter weekend. There were lots of people in attendance.
