We Have A Name

It's.......

Jackson "Jackrabbit" Ryan O'Grady.

He'll go by Jack. It's a name that we've been tossing around since the very beginning, and for some reason tonight, we both just knew that was going to be his name. It just feels right, and fits us. Ryan is Michael's middle name, so we're keeping it in the family that way. Of course Jackrabbit will not really be a part of his name, but for some reason, Michael just loves it! (And I think it's funny).

I'm starting to feel our little man "flutter" around, and it is such an amazing reassuring feeling.
I've also started to have some ligament pain which, (I don't want to scare anyone) is very painful. It feels like someone is stabbing a knife into my lower groin. (Sorry for the visual.) It doesn't last too long, and all info says that it is normal. The pain is due to my uterus continuing to grow, or the baby sitting on a ligament. The pain doesn't last very long, and subsides if I can sit or lay. It was very alarming the first time I experienced it, but after talking to mom's who have experienced it before, I felt much better.

Other than that little hiccup, I still feel great! So far, this has been an amazingly easy and comfortable pregnancy. I love every second!

We have another doctor's appointment on Tuesday, so I will update and post pictures then. I'm really starting to show!!

On a completely different note, Colby and Joshua (brother and nephew) will be here Monday for the week! We have a lot of fun stuff planned, and are looking forward to a "stay-cation" here in San Diego with our family.

Happy Saturday!
