It's A...............
Well considering we've known for over a month now we thought it was time to share what our new little miracle will be Girl or Boy???
So for those of you that have guessed correctly...

IT'S A BOY!!!

We are very excited and blessed that God has chosen a little boy to complete our family in June. Ava could have sworn to you that it was a girl and was none to thrilled for about a week that she would have a baby brother, but after a little time for it to sink in, many questions, and a little coaxing she is thrilled that she will have someone to take care of and play with...even if it is a boy!
Now she talks to him every morning and tells him goodnight. She can't wait for "summer" to get here and has been Daddy's special helper around the house. Hopefully the excitement will continue... This morning she told me "Let me tell you a secret about what I'm going to do when he gets here"..."I'm going to teach him how to walk, talk, read, sit on the potty, and teach him not to jump on the couch." Hopefully she won't be too disappointed to learn that he won't be doing many of those things for quite a while.

We are very excited and have already begun to think blue instead of pink!

On the 14th we will be 20 weeks and went on the 5th for our anatomy check and ultrasound with Dr. Korotkin. He was very pleased with our little wiggle worm and everything looked great! We are measuring right on track, maybe a little ahead and go back and see him in 6 weeks.
Here is a picture from Monday's visit...another profile pic. The little guy is measuring in at 9 ounces.

Somehow over the past 3 1/2 years we managed to keep it a secret and save the name we had picked out in case Ava was a boy. We literally had this name picked out when I was only 8 weeks pregnant with Ava and thought of it while on our annual ski trip to Utah. So for those of you wondering what his name will be...we plan on naming him...

Bennett Parker Morrow

and we plan on calling him Bennett.

Besides the normal "growing pains" I'm feeling great! Here is another growing belly pic for those of you we haven't seen in a while. Please continue to pray that my Lupus will stay in control and our little boy continues to grow and thrive!

We're so excited to share this next step with you and promise to post more pics soon!

Love you all!
Jennifer, Nick, Ava and baby Bennett
