The Votes Have Been Counted...

Well, it looks like the votes were 11 for GIRL and 10 for BOY.  

The bad news is this is not a democracy, this is genetics! The good news is we have a winner!

The Christensen's have a namesake heir!  It's a boy! The tech pointed out her clue for us...Nice view of the his bottom, eh? :) The left side is his hand! 




Hopefully you are on your way to doing well in the gene pool.  But fear not, if you chose girl, there are still lots of other things to vote on later!  The odds are all 50-50-90 anyway.

(For those who haven't heard 50-50-90, it means you had a 50% chance for either answer, and a 90% chance to be wrong if you guess. Not accurate, but it's a joke we all used in the Navy when we forgot an answer)

Everything looked great to the ultrasound tech. She was very excited she could see so much of him, and that he was pretty cooperative (he was really squirmy).  That was a long ultrasound - almost one hour!  I had no idea all the cool stuff they could see.  They looked at various bone lengths in his arms and legs, the size of his head, they measured his cerebellum, heart, kidneys, stomach, and bladder.  They even zoomed in and could see all four chambers of his little heart! Amazing!

    Congratulations!! Just had to check in to see what you found out today. I loved seeing the ultrasound pictures and I'll never ever get over the wonder of bringing a baby into the world. Children are a blessing!

Angel or Devil?

Kids. They are too funny. I had to share this one with all of you. We went to Mass today and tried to sit inside for once. Everything was great, until Jack noticed the missal in the pew had these nice orange and yellow squares or something in the illustration on the cover. He was conviced they were dominoes, but that is a word he struggles to say. So, at an especially quiet time in the Mass he looks at me and says, "damn-yous! damn-yous!" We both had a mix of embarassment and laughter. Only out of the mouth of a 2 year old! We went to the back of the church soon after that. :)

Happy Birthday Jack

Here are some photos from Jack's 2nd birthday day, and party. He was so excited he was telling everyone happy birthday! We 'filled' his room with balloons while he was sleeping. He was so excited to wake up to balloons! Jack wanted to pose with his new favorite toy - Buzz! They are still usually only separated at nighttime (too tempting to make noise all night). Oh, and that is his 'camera' smile. He uses it whenever he sees the lens pointed at him. So cheesy! Blowing out the candles on his Spiderman cake. Yes, all the other stuff is Thomas the Train. He likes what he likes. Jack wasn't about to let Emerson go home without a hug. It was a hug, not an attack. Promise!

Easter

Easter has come and gone, but finally I have some photos uploaded! We had a nice time and enjoyed spending time with Grandma and Grandpa C, Antie and Uncle John Tressell , and Uncle Robert, Aunt Natalie, and Emerson. Jack really enjoyed hunting for eggs (for a few days he asked us to hide them again so he could find them), but was a bit disappointed when they no longer had animal cracker in them. Anyway better late than never. I'll put all the photos on Flickr . :) Painting Eggs They actually sat still for three seconds! Family Photo - Easter 2011 Until next time...
