It's a BOY!!

Hello friends and family. Yes, a boy. We are excited. His name is Brayden Alan Winslow. Alan is kind of a family name. It's the middle name of Mike, his dad, and my dad, so we thought it would fit well. Brayden has no special meaning. We just thought it was a very good name. Tyson is THRILLED that he will have a brother. He tells everyone. Anna is o.k. with having any kind of baby. I'm not sure she will enjoy two brothers later in life, but we'll see.

In other news, Brayden looks very healthy. We are so glad!! His brain, spine, and mouth are all developing just the way they should, and he is even measuring a week ahead of schedule. If my meds were to cause problems, it would have already happened, so we know we are out of the woods as far as my meds go. The trick now will be to keep me from having seizures. Maternal seizures deprive the baby from oxygen so in turn can cause brain damage in the baby. My neurologist is great and he is o.k. with giving me more drugs as my seizures become worse. I'm just happy the meds have not caused problems. It relieves a lot of stress on both me a Mike. We had a few pictures taken and thought you might want to see them. I hope you can tell what they are. Thanks to all of you for your support!

This is his bent leg and foot kicking me. Quite the mover. It was hard for the nurse to get a good image because he just kept turning and moving.

This picture is looking down on his face. You can't see his lips and the cord is next to his cheek.

This is his face in 3D. The cord is in front of his eye and his belly is popping up under his chin. His arm is coming up next to his head.

It's a boy. Look in the middle of the picture and it will be quite obvious.
