Sarah and I visited our doctor today to find out what we’re having…. It’s a BOY!! Holy crap was I surprised! I was sooooo sure he was going to be a she (wait, that just sounds weird. Note to self – never repeat that phrase to the kid).

It was such an amazing experience, I can’t even describe the feeling of seeing him on that little grainy black & white monitor. Rarely in my life have I ever cried for joy, and it was REALLY hard not to cry during the sonogram. I am going to be a complete and utter mess of snot and tears on the day he’s born. I think it’s finally starting to sink in a little bit, and knowing that we’ll have a little boy to cuddle with in 4 1/2 short months is really exciting and scary as hell at the same time.

Up until yesterday, I was the last male Yarbrough in our family… I was the last hope for the survival of the family name. Now, the name will go on for at least one more generation. Awesome.

I can’t wait to teach him everything I know (which should only take about 3 days…) To play the guitar, saxophone, hockey, football, golf… I will live all my sports dreams vicariously through him! Mwa-Ha-Ha. Could he be the first ever Texas born player to go #1 overall in the 2023 NHL draft?? Do they make ice hockey skates for 1 month olds?

I posted the sonogram pictures below and on the photos page in the Pregnancy folder along with some pics of Sarah’s exponentially expanding belly. I think the boy has my chin, and hopefully he’ll get Sarah’s beautiful blue eyes…
