He shall be called.....

Now that we know the gender of our baby, the next step is coming up with his name. I have been sold on one particular name from the beginning but Tyler was having a little bit harder time committing. After a lot of talking it out and saying the names out loud we have finally come up with the final name.

He shall be called Cade Jordan Mackeson.

This is the original name I had picked out; just spelt with a "K" instead of a "C", Tyler liked the name but thought the "K" made it too girly... so we compromised.
It is so fun to refer to him as Cade now instead of "baby" or "him". He still gets "baby mack" a lot which will probably end up being his nick name for quite some time!

It's a B O Y ! ! !

We had our ultrasound on Friday and it was amazing!
What a rush to see our little baby up-close like that. Tyler was super nervous going into the appointment, which made me all nervous. He kept saying "it's just going to make things more real to be able to actually see it". More real was right!
We no longer refer to it as an "it" it's now a HE, and he is growing and developing right on schedule. I was a little nervous when we first got there because our ultrasound tech was "in training" so I was afraid we weren’t going to get good shots or pictures of our baby. But I was all wrong, she was amazing! Especially since baby Mack was an active little thing.
He cooperated great for the first 1/2 of the ultrasound, just long enough to get a shot of his "manhood" then it was off for a game of chase! Just as she would have the shot or body part she needed he would roll over or turn the other way. He is very active and taking after his daddy already! I do have two pictures from the ultrasound but I need to have them scanned so I can post them for everyone. I will try to get it done ASAP!

Now the fun can really begin!

Time to start planning and decorating the nursery and getting our registry set up!
