We get to see Everett again Tuesday...I wanted to explain why.
No concerns or anything, it was our choice. We had the 2nd semester ultrasound scheduled for Monday (March 8th) 6 weeks in advance. Less than five days before the ultrasound they called to tell us they had to change our appointment because of maintenance on the machine. My dad had moved all his patients to a different day so he could be there on Monday. He also had surgery all day Tuesday so he couldn't have came to the rescheduled one. I really wanted the grandparents to be there to see the little one, and Friday was the only option open for him on such short notice. We have planned on having a 4D ultrasound from a place here in Moore called A Glimpse Before and After and I called just to ask what our options were. They had an appointment time on Friday and the additional charge was very small since we were having our 4D there as well! All-in-all it worked out better for us! We found out the sex a few days early and we get to see him again!
At least I didn't wait a month to post a new blog!!!!

Dear Baby Boy,
I am so excited that we finally know what you are! And we have a name for you that we love! Everett. James Everett Acker. James Acker like your daddy, and his daddy, and his grandpa and so on... We just like Everett because it is not that common of a name. And it sounds a little country :) I can't even explain how excited we are for you to arrive! Your daddy has not stopped smiling since we heard that you were a boy. Thank you for cooperating and letting us see your "parts." But like a lot of little boys you were a little TOO excited to let us know what you are. Right when she put the ultrasound transducer on my belly she could tell! You had your legs spread wide and there was no mistaking what was there. I appreciate it this time, but in the future I will have to teach you to a little bit about modesty.
You looked so cramped in there! That probably explains why you have been kicking me so much! I felt you for the first time in Church last week...at 17 weeks exactly...I knew it was you, but your daddy thought I was just a little gassy. (I might have to remind myself about modesty after your born, but until then this is a "tell-all" blog) You felt like little bubbles at first. Kind of like there were butterflies in my belly! But after a couple days you started really moving around! Sometimes on the side of my belly button, but usually a little below it. You like to move a lot at night, when I lay down to go to sleep...This makes it very hard to sleep because your daddy and I both want to feel you! At the ultrasound we also noticed how big your hands and feet are! And your legs are super long!! I think you will be very tall. You are so cute already, you kept opening and closing your mouth like you wanted to suck your thumb. We can't wait to have you in our arms and be able to cuddle and love on you! But take your time, you have some more "cooking" to do (thats what daddy calls it!)
Also, Thank you for growing so much these past couple weeks...I actually look like a preggo now! Im so excited. You just popped out so much in only a couple days. Your daddy and I got me some maternity clothes today and now I have some things to wear at work. Dont worry, we will look very cute! I also bought a cute little picture frame for your ultrasound picture that I am going to put on my desk so I can think about you allllll day long! And I bought a scrapbook for all your cute little pictures when you arrive. I won't let myself buy you anything yet because we are having a shower for you in June...Mommy cant wait!!!
We love you so much already, Keep growing big and strong. But not too big, you don't want to hurt mommy on your way into this world.
Love,
Your mommy and daddy :)
