It's a BOY!!!
I was just in the hospital for kidney stones, and they did the ultrasound early. I was working and started having that familiar right flank pain. They sent me to triage, and they admitted me. If I was not pregnant, they would send me home and tell me to strain my urine and drink plenty of fluids. But no, I got to stay for 28 hours. Let me tell you, it is a whole lot easier to be on the other side of the needle. But we did get to do the ultrasound early and we found out that the baby is okay, all measurements were fine with no alarming flags indicating the baby has Down's. Praise the Lord !!!
As I was sitting there wondering how I was going to console John when they said, "It's a girl", I see the above picture, and shock just comes over me, as I realize, my premonitions were all wrong. We will add one more boy to the Jefferson family. Well, I guess that is just as well, the boys have absolutely no modesty, which would have ruined a little girl. I say that, as Caleb runs through the house naked riding his imaginary horse. Who knows where his pants went this time.
We looked through the baby name book last night and we think we have a name we like...Paden Shea Jefferson. Who knows, we may change it 100 times in the next 19 weeks. Caleb thinks we should name him Jimmy Neutron, and Brett is still hoping the ultrasound is wrong.
Tomorrow we leave for "Deeper Still" in Nashville, remember to pray for our safe trip. I can't wait.

had no idea you had been in the hospital!
Congratulations! Boys have their benefits. No prom dresses to buy and no weddings to pay for....but whatever we save on those things we'll probably spend on car insurance! LOL! I love the name Shea. Jacob's middle name is Shea. It's a family name on my side. Again, congrats, and hope you're feeling better!
WOW! That's amazing! Congratulations on yet another boy!!
I hope you're up and going by now and that your 'deeper still' conference is amazing!
